Question

Write an equation of the parabola in vertex form that passes through (0, -24) and has vertex (-6,-12)

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x)=-2(x+6)-12

Step-by-step explanation:

so the easiest one to do would be vertex form

f(x)=a(x-h)+k

so your vertex represents (h, k)

so plug in those values

f(x)=a(x- - 6) -12

now use the other point to solve for a

-24=a(0+6)+12

-24=6a+12

-12=6a

-2=a
