<span> first, write the equation of the parabola in the required form: </span>
<span>(y - k) = a·(x - h)² </span>
<span>Here, (h, k) is given as (-1, -16). </span>
<span>So you have: </span>
<span>(y + 16) = a · (x + 1)² </span>
<span>Unfortunately, a is not given. However, you do know one additional point on the parabola: (0, -15): </span>
<span>-15 + 16 = a· (0 + 1)² </span>
<span>.·. a = 1 </span>
<span>.·. the equation of the parabola in vertex form is </span>
<span>y + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>The x-intercepts are the values of x that make y = 0. So, let y = 0: </span>
<span>0 + 16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>16 = (x + 1)² </span>
<span>We are trying to solve for x, so take the square root of both sides - but be CAREFUL! </span>
<span>± 4 = x + 1 ...... remember both the positive and negative roots of 16...... </span>
<span>Solving for x: </span>
<span>x = -1 + 4, x = -1 - 4 </span>
<span>x = 3, x = -5. </span>
<span>Or, if you prefer, (3, 0), (-5, 0). </span>
Where an, an-1,a2, a1, a0 are constants. We call the term containing the highest power of x the leading term, and we call an the leading coefficient. The degree of the polynomial is the power of x in the leading term. We have already seen degree 0, 1, and 2 polynomials which were the constant, linear, and quadratic functions, respectively. Degree 3, 4, and 5
16= 6 ones or 16 ones
817= 8 hundreds and 7 ones or 17 ones
Hope this helps! :D

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for calculating the surface area of the box S = 2(LW+LH+WH) where
L is the length of the box
W is the width of the box
H is the height of the box
If the box is square based with dimension 4 * 4in, then L = W = 4in. substituting this values given into the formula we will have;
S = 2(4(4)+4H + 4H)
S = 2(16+8H)
S = 32+16H
<em>Hence, The function that represents the surface area of this box as a
</em>
<em>function of its height is S = 32+16H where H is the height of the box</em>
<em></em>
Given H = 6.5in, to evaluate the function, we will substitute h = 6.5in into the modeled equation;
S = 32+16H
S = 32+16(6.5)
S = 32+106
<em>S = 138in²</em>
<em>Hence the total surface area of the box is 138in²</em>
