There would be 223 people every square mile
As it has a maximum value the coefficient of x^2 will be negative
The vertex will be at (-8,2) so in vertex form it is
y = a(x + 8)^2 + 2
and as it passes through (-7,-1) we have:
-1 = a(-7+8)^2 + 2
-1 = a + 2 so a = -3
answer is y = -3(x + 8)^2 + 2
in standard form this is y = -3x^2 -48x - 190
5:9 is just 5/9
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The value of P(2) is twice that of P(1).
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x) = 4x so:
P(1) = 4*1 = 4 and
P(2) = 4*2 = 8.
