The coefficient of the squared expression is 1/9
<h3>How to determine the coefficient of the squared expression?</h3>
A parabola is represented as:
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
Where:
Vertex = (h,k)
From the question, we have:
(h,k) = (-2,-3)
(x,y) = (-5,-2)
So, the equation becomes
-2 = a(-5 + 2)^2 - 3
Add 3 to both sides
1 = a(-5 + 2)^2
Evaluate the sum
1 = a(-3)^2
This gives
1 = 9a
Divide both sides by 9
a = 1/9
Hence, the coefficient of the squared expression is 1/9

N = -1/3 is the answer to the problem
Answer:
The square root of 32 by 3 is 5.657
Step-by-step explanation:
(2,3)(4,4)
slope(m) = (4-3) / (4-2) = 1/2
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/2
(4,4)...x = 4 and y = 4
now we sub
4 = 1/2(4) + b
4 = 2 + b
4 - 2 = b
2 = b
equation is : y = 1/2x + 2
