Vertex form is
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
axis of symmetry is x=4, therfor h=4
y=a(x-4)^2+k
we have some points
(3,-2) and (6,-26)
input and solve for a and k
(3,-2)
-2=a(3-4)^2+k
-2=a(-1)^2+k
-2=a(1)+k
-2=a+k
(6,-26)
-26=a(6-4)^2+k
-26=a(2)^2+k
-26=a(4)+k
-26=4a+k
we have
-2=a+k
-26=4a+k
multiply first equation by -1 and add to second
2=-a-k
<u>-26=4a+k +</u>
-24=3a+0k
-24=3a
divide both sides by 3
-8=a
-2=a+k
-2=-8+k
add 8 to both sides
6=k

Answer:
c) 6x - 5y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form of a linear equation:
(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)
Maria's line:
Therefore, the slope of Maria's line is
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes will be -1.
Therefore, the slope of Nate's line (m) is:
Therefore, the linear equation of Nate's line is:
Rearranging this to standard form:
Therefore, <u>option c</u> could be an equation for Nate's line.
