Answer:
8
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
Here (h, k) = (- 4, 6 ), thus
y = a(x + 4)² + 6
To find a substitute (- 3, 14) into the equation
14 = a(- 3 + 4)² + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
8 = a
Thus the coefficient of the x² term is a = 8

Good at what?
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
you can use foil and the graph,
because you can see (in the graph) that the lines intersect at 1 and 4.
just use foil to help figure out which matches the slope.
something else (the normal way) is find which 2 numbers equal to the last coefficient, in this case it can be
-2 and -2, 2 and 2, 4 and 1 or -4 and -1, multiply them and if they make up the last coefficient, and added it equals the second coefficient it is correct.
