Answer:

<u>f(x) = -1/4(x - 0)^2 - 2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

vertex form:

f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

<em>1) put the vertex in the equation, ( (h, k) is the vertex)</em>

f(x) = a(x - 0)^2 - 2

<em>2) plug in the point (8, -18) to find the value of a</em>

-18 = a(8 - 0)^2 - 2

-18 = a(64) - 2

-16 = a(64)

-16/64 = a

-1/4 = a

<em>3) plug in the value of a into the equation</em>

<u>f(x) = -1/4(x - 0)^2 - 2</u>

A coin is tossed three times. what is the probability of getting two heads and one tail?
Lera25 [3.4K]
If the order doesn't matter, then the probability is 37.5%
If it has to be head head tail, then the probability is 12.5%

If the order doesn't matter, the possible outcomes that have two heads and one tail are HHT, HTH, and THH. Since these all have a probability of 12.5% of occuring, the probability of any of them occuring is 37.5%
