Answer:
Below in bold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex form.
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
The point (h, k) is the vertex so from the graph:
y = a(x - 1)^2 - 8
From the x -interesect we see that x = 6 when y = 0 so
0 = a(6 - 1)^2 - 8
25a - 8 = 0
a = 8/25
So the vertex form is
y = (8/25)(x - 1)^2 - 8.
Factored form:
y = (8/25)(x + 4)(x - 6)
- as -4 and 6 are the zeros of the equation.
Standard form:
From the factored form we have
y = (8/25)(x^2 - 2x - 24)
y = 8/25 x^2 - 16/25 x - 192/25
or (in decimal form):
y = 0.32x^2 - 0.64x - 7.68.
Subtract the year the pilgrims sailed from the year you want to find the distance from:
2040 - 1620 = 420 years.
Answer:
