First, we get ax^2+bx+c. Next, we know that the line of symmetry is -b/2a. Since we know that there is a maximum value, the parabola is facing downwards, so a is negative. For random numbers, we can say that a = -0.5 and b=-10 (b needs to be negative for -b/2a to equal -10), getting -0.5x^2-10x+c. Plugging -10 in for x (since -10 is the middle it is the max), we get -50+100=50. Since the maximum needs to be 5, not 50, we subtract 45 from the answer to get it and therefore make c = -45, getting -0.5x^2-10x-45
I dont know if this is what you are looking for but i think this is the answer of the question you are looking for which is the general equation of a horizontal hyperbola:
<span>(x-h)²/a² - (y-k)²/b² = 1 </span>
<span>with </span>
<span>center (h,k)
</span>What you need to do is replace the data and do the calculations
Answer:
13,415 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Final position - initial position = Miles traveled:
23,840 miles - 10,425 miles = 13,415 miles
