Answer:
B. g(x) = (x-2)^2 +1
Step-by-step explanation:
When you see this type of equation your get the variables H and K in a quadratic equation. In this case the (x-2)^2 +1 is your H. The (x-2)^2 +1 is your K.
For the H you always do the opposite so in this case instead of going to the left 2 times you go to the right 2 times (affects your x)
For the K you go up or down which in this case you go up one (affects your y)
And that's how you got your (2,1) as the center of the parabola

Answers:
5. x = 1
6. y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For question 5, you can use power of a point which describes the relationship of two secants intersecting inside a circle. You get the formula:
AC * CD = BC * CE
You can substitute the values you are given to get:
2 * 4 = x * 8
This gives you x = 1
For question 6, you can use another formula in power of a point that describes two secants intersecting in the exterior of a circle. You get the formula:
GH * GJ = GI * GK
Using segment addition postulate, you get:
GJ = GH + HJ = 5 + 16 = 21
GK = GI + IK = 6 + y --> y + 6
Now, substitute into the equation from power of a point:
5 * 21 = 6 * (y + 6)
105 = 6 * (y + 6)
17.5 = y + 6
y = 11.5
Its fairly straightforward. Since the bottom equation only has one unknown,x, because y=1.3, you can plug y in and solve for x. Once you find the value of x, you then have the value for two variables, x and y, and again have one unknown coefficient a. To solve for the coefficient you just plug in your y value (1.3) and your x value (which can be rounded to 0.42). Using a little bit of algebra, you can then solve for a which should be a=2.108. I am not sure if your teacher wants you to solve it this way but you could also use the elimination method or substitution method that you would of learned when discussing system of equations. But no matter which way you do it, the math follows the rules. Hope this helps. I’d suggest you solve it yourself to double check my work.

Answer:
(x - 3)(x + 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 4x - 21
=> x^2 + 7x - 3x - 21
=> x(x + 7) -3(x + 7)
=> (x + 7)(x - 3)
