Answer:

He is 5.6 km away

Step-by-step explanation:

he starts traveling away from base and is 8.3 km away to start with

then he turns west and travels 13.9 km away

what this mean is that you have to subtract the distance he turned from the distance he started off with

ex: 13.9 - 8.3 = 5.9

to get your answer of how far away he is from the base

The vertex of this parabola is at (2,-1) when the y value is 0 and then x value is 5 what is the coefficient of the squared term

Darina [25.2K]

$\bf ~~~~~~\textit{parabola vertex form} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} \stackrel{\textit{we'll use this one}}{y=a(x- h)^2+ k}\\\\ x=a(y- k)^2+ h \end{array} \qquad\qquad vertex~~(\stackrel{2}{ h},\stackrel{-1}{ k}) \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=2\\ k=-1 \end{cases}\implies y=a(x-2)^2-1 \\\\\\ \textit{we also know that } \begin{cases} y=0\\ x=5 \end{cases}\implies 0=a(5-2)^2-1\implies 1=9a \\\\\\ \cfrac{1}{9}=a\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{y=\cfrac{1}{9}(x-2)^2-1}$

now, let's expand the squared term to get the standard form of the quadratic.

$\bf y=\cfrac{1}{9}(x-2)^2-1\implies y=\cfrac{1}{9}(x^2-4x+4)-1 \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{1}{9}x^2-\cfrac{4}{9}x+\cfrac{4}{9}-1\implies \stackrel{its~coefficient}{y=\stackrel{\downarrow }{\cfrac{1}{9}}x^2-\cfrac{4}{9}x-\cfrac{5}{9}}$
