It's 5.4- I just used the calculator on my phone but I would've just done long division if I didn't have a calculator
Answer:
If your solving for y...
The answer would be: y = -9/8x + 17/8 I believe.
For the second one... it would be : y = -1/7x + 8/7
Step-by-step explanation:
10x^2-6x^2 = 4x^2
-64-36 = 100
4x^2 -100 = 0
(2x -10)(2x+10)
X = 2/10 and x = - 2/10
The standard form of a parabola is y=ax²+bx+c
use the three given points to find the three unknown constants a, b, and c:
-2=a+b+c............1
-2=4a+2b+c......... 2
-4=9a+3b+c...........3
equation 2 minus equation 1: 3a+b=0..........4
equation 3 minus equation 2: 5a+b=-2.........5
equation 5 minus equation 4: 2a=-2, so a=-1
plug a=-1 in equation 4: -3+b=0, so b=3
Plug a=-1, b=3 in equation 1: -2=-1+3+c, so c=-4
the parabola is y=-x²+3x-4
double check: when x=1, y=-1+3-4=-2
when x=2, y=-4+6-4=-2
when x=3, y=-9+9-4=-4
Yes.
