Question

What’s the equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation is;

y = 2x^2 -8x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form can be written as;

a(x-h)^2 + k

(h,k) represents the coordinates of the vertex

In this case, we have this as (2,4)

The value of a is positive as the parabola opens up and it is the axis of symmetry

It is the x value that divides the graph into 2

Thus, we have x as = 2

so the equation of the graph will be;

2(x-2)^2 + 4

2(x^2 - 4x + 4) + 4

= 2x^2 -8x + 8 + 4

= 2x^2 -8x + 12
