Answer:

<h3>               f(x) =  -x² + 20x - 96</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabola f(x) = ax² + bx + c passing through points (8,0) and (12,0) means that 8 and 12 are its root and (x-8) and (x-12) are its factors

So we get:

               f(x) = a(x - 8)(x - 12)

The parabola passes through point (13, -5) that means if x=13 then f(x)=-5

So:

      -5 = a(13 - 8)(13 - 12)  

      -5 = a(5)(1)

      -5 = 5a

       a = -1          {<0 so parabola opens down}

Therefore:

                 f(x) = -(x - 8)(x - 12)

And expanding:

                f(x) = -(x² - 12x - 8x + 96)

So the standard form equation of the parabola:

                <u>f(x) =  -x² + 20x - 96</u>

3y+2=2y-5x <br><br>solve and show work
pentagon [3]

Alrighty, first off you would move the 2y to the left side and change its sign and move the constant (2) to the other side and change its sign.

3y - 2y = 5x - 2

Next you would collect the like terms for y.

y = 5x - 2

And because you cannot do anything else with the problem that is the final answer: y = 5x - 2

Hope this helps! :)
