Answer:
1. Hush
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex form formula: y = a(x-h)^2 +k, with vertex (h,k)
There are multiple ways to find the vertex. One way is to find the roots and then find the x value exactly in between them, because this parabola is symmetrical.
0 = (x - 3)(x + 2), so x = 3 and -2. The point directly in the middle is x = 1/2 = h
To find the y value of the vertex, plug in 1/2 to the equation.
(1/2)^2 - 2(1/2) + 5 = 4.25 = k
y = (x - 0.5)^2 + 4.25
The first one is the Last choice, and the second one is the third choice! please mark as brainliets

Distributive property
Answer:
The answers are that a = -5 and b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find A and B, we first need to find the equation of the line. We can do this by using two ordered pairs and the slope formula. For the purpose of this activity, I'l use (0, 5) and (-3, 11)
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (11 - 5)/(-3 - 0)
m = 6/-3
m = -2
Now that we have this we can model this using point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -2(x - 0)
y - 5 = -2x
y = -2x + 5
Now that we have the modeled equation we can use the ordered pair (a, 15) to solve for a.
y = -2x + 5
15 = -2(a) + 5
10 = -2a
-5 = a
And we can also solve for b using the ordered pair (2, b)
y = -2x + 5
b = -2(2) + 5
b = -4 + 5
b = 1
