Answers:

Slope = 1.25

y intercept = 4

Explanation:

The slope is the rate of change. In this case, it's the price of getting an extra box.  

The y intercept is the starting cost assuming that everyone has to get at least one small box of candy.

find an equation in the form y=ax^2+bx+c for the parabola passing through the points. (2,28),(4,116),(-3,88)
IgorC [24]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = 8x² -4x +4

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

I find it quick and easy to let a graphing calculator do quadratic regression on the given points. It gives the coefficients of the equation directly. (See attached.)

_____

If you want to do this "by hand," you can substitute each of the x and y value pairs into the equation to get three linear equations in a, b, and c. These are generally easy to solve, as the "c" variable can be eliminated right away.

<em>For x = 2</em>

... 28 = a·2² +b·2 +c = 4a +2b +c

<em>For x = 4</em>

... 116 = a·4² +4b +c = 16a +4b +c

<em>For x = -3</em>

... 88 = a·(-3)² +b·(-3) +c = 9a -3b +c

Subtracting the first and third equations from the second, we have ...

... (16a +4b +c) -(4a +2b +c) = (116) -(28) ⇒ 12a +2b = 88

... (16a +4b +c) -(9a -3b +c) = (116) -(88) ⇒ 7a +7b = 28

Dividing the first of these reduced equations by 2, and the second by 7, we have ...

  • 6a +b = 44
  • a +b = 4

Subtracting the second of these from the first gives ...

... (6a +b) -(a +b) = (44) -(4) ⇒ 5a = 40

From which we find

... a = 8

... b = 4 -a = 4 -8 = -4

We choose the first of the original equations to find c:

... c = 28 -4a -2b = 28 -4·8 -2(-4)

... = 28 -32 +8 = 4

With (a, b, c) = (8, -4, 4), the equation of the parabola is ...

... y = 8x² -4x +4
