Write an equation for the parabola whose vertex is at (4, 12) and which passes through (5, 21)

Answer:

y - 12 = 9(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex (h, k) is (4, 12) and the point (5, 21) is on the graph.  Assuming that this is a vertical parabola, opening up (because the coordinate 21 is greater than the coordinate 12), we insert the knowns into  y - k = a(x - h)^2, obtaining

21 - 12 = a(5 - 4), or  9 = a.  With a known, we can write the desired equation:

y - 12 = 9(x - 4)

Answer:

x = - 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 4x² - 20x - 56

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0, that is

4x² - 20x - 56 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )

x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

–x – 7 = 16 please help me
atroni [7]
Move the -7 to the right, its sign will flip (do you know why?)
Negate both sides to change -x to x

-x = 16+7
-x = 23
x = -23

What is the distance between point A and point B?what is the ordered pair for each of the points plotted above?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

A: (0,0), B: (3, -4), 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A: (0,0), B: (3, -4)

To find the distance, use the distance formula. Square-root((0-3)^2+(0-(-4))^2) ---> Square-root((-3)^2 + 4^2) ---> Square-root(9+16) ---> Square-root(25) ---> 5units.
