Answer: 1. x = (y - 2)² + 8

3. y = 2(x +9)² + 7
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Notes: Vertex form is: y =a(x - h)² + k or x =a(y - k)² + h
- (h, k) is the vertex
- point of vertex is midpoint of focus and directrix:


- p is the distance from the vertex to the focus
1)

Now let's find the a-value:

Now, plug in a = 1 and (h, k) = (-8, 2) into the equation x =a(y - k)² + h
x = (y - 2)² + 8

2)

Now let's find the a-value:

Now, plug in a = -1/2 and (h, k) = (1, 10) into the equation x =a(y - k)² + h

***************************************************************************************
3)

Now let's find the a-value:

Now, plug in a = 2 and (h, k) = (-9, 7) into the equation y =a(x - h)² + k
y = 2(x +9)² + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+28=5x+8
x=20

You need 3 points to graph a quadratic function.
It is advisable that one of these points be the vertex, because the line of symmetry passes through it
Next, you need to find two other points that lie on the curve, replacing an x-value into the function and calculating the y-value. It is easier if these two points are at the same distance from the line of symmetry.
For example, if the quadratic function is y = (x - 4)² + 3, the vertex is located at (4, 3). Replacing with x = 3 into the equation, we get:
y = (3 - 4)² + 3
y = 1 + 3
y = 4
Replacing with x = 5 into the equation, we get:
y = (5 - 4)² + 3
y = 1 + 3
y = 4
Now, we need to connect the points (3, 4), (4, 3), and (5, 4) with a U shape, as follows:
<span>16.1428571 = mean
3.563 = standard deviation
</span>
3x² - 21
Factor 3 from both terms:
3 (x² - 7)
To me, that's as far as you should need to go. But if you want to get
completely carried away, you could go one step further, since you have
the difference of two squares:
3 (x + √7) (x - √7)
Of course, there's no end now, because the last binomial could be
considered another difference of two squares, so you'd have to
factor that too:
3 (x + √7) (√x + ⁴√7) (√x - ⁴√7)
but to me, this would be nonsense.
