Answer:
(a variation of) vertex form
Step-by-step explanation:
For vertical scale factor "a" and vertex (h, k), the vertex form of the equation for a parabola can be written as ...
y = a(x -h)^2 +k
If k is subtracted from this equation, an alternate form is ...
y -k = a(x -h)^2
This latter version of vertex form is the form your equation has, where ...
- a = 8
- (h, k) = (-7, -20)
Answer:
(x, y) = (-6, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe you want to solve ...
- y = -2x -9
- 2x +3y = -3
Use the first equation to substitute for y in the second:
2x +3(-2x -9) = -3
2x -6x -27 = -3
-4x = 24 . . . . . . . . . add 27, simplify
x = -6 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -4
y = -2(-6) -9 = 12 -9 = 3
The solution is (x, y) = (-6, 3).
