9) is A
10) is B
Do you need an explanation
The correct answer is A -1.5
Vertex form for a parabola with vertex (p,q) is

We have (p,q)=(-4,5) and another point (-3,2) so we can solve for <em>a:</em>



Putting it together,
Answer: 
We could multiply that out if we like but I won't bother.
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula needed to solve this question by hand is:
![x^{\frac{m}{n}} =\sqrt[n]{x^{m}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%7D%20%3D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5E%7Bm%7D%7D)
256^(5/8) = 8th root of 256^5
256^(5/8) = 8th root of 1280
<u>256^(5/8) = 32</u>
