Answer:
y = (x - 4)² - 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
To obtain this form use the method of completing the square.
Given
y = (x + 1)(x - 9) ← expand factors using FOIL, thus
y = x² - 8x - 9
To complete the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² - 8x
y = x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 - 16 - 9
= (x - 4)² - 25 ← in vertex form
6:42 pm because you just subtract the elapsed time.
Answer:
68.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Measure the length of the parallel sides and add them together. Then multiply this number by the height of the area. Then multiply by ½ or divide by two to find the square footage of the trapezoid.
13.6 + 5.9= 19.5
19.5 + 8 = 27.5
27.5 x 5 = 137.5
137.5 x 1/2 = 68.75
