So to solve problems like these you can work out each equation by substituting the x and y with the coords from the vertex (2,-4) and which ever one is true is the corresponding equation.
Lets try the first one
A) y = 2( x-2)^2-4 this would become
-4 = 2(2-2)^2-4 we solve this and get
-4 = 2(0)-4
-4 = -4
so it seems like A is the correct answer, of course we'd wanna check out the other answers just to be sure.
Lets try one and do C
C) -2 = 2(-4-2)^2+2
-2 = 2(-8)^2+2
-2 = 130
These aren't equal so this can't be our equation
So you can also do one more just to be super sure you have the right answer but I think A is the correct one :)

So, to find our x-intercepts, y must be zero

ANSWER: (0,0) (-5.0) (9,0) are your x-intercepts
Answer: What are the options for the functions?
Step-by-step explanation:
Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
slope intercept form :
y=m+b
m=slope
If the line is parallel to y=2/3 x-0, the line will have the same slope, therefore the slope will be: 2/3.
Data:
(8,4)
m=2/3
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=2/3(x-8)
y-4=2/3 x-16/3
y=2/3 x-16/3+4
y=2/3 x-4/3 (slope intercept form)
Answer: The equation of the line would be: y=2/3 x-4/3.
if we have the next slope "m",then the perendicular slope will be:
m´=-1/m
We have this equation: y=2/3 x+0; the slope is: m=2/3.
The perpendicular slope will be: m`=-1/(2/3)=-3/2
And the equation of the perpendicular line to : y=2/3 x+0, given the point (8,4) will be:
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=-3/2 (x-8)
y-4=-3/2 x+12
y=-3/2x + 12+4
y=-3/2x+16
answer: the perpendicular line to y=2/3 x+0 , given the point (8,4) will be:
y=-3/2 x+16
