Answer: -9 = a(1 - 3)² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex Form Equation:
y = a(x - h)² + k
vertex: (h, k) which means
h = 3
k = 3
because your vertex is (3, 3).
Your point is (1, -9) which is (x, y).
This means
x = 1
y = -9
Now, plug everything into your Vertex Form Equation:
-9 = a(1 - 3)² + 3
That’s your equation and final answer, but of course, if you need to, you can solve for a if you need to.
If a is positive, the parabola opens up. If a is negative, the parabola opens down.
Hope this helps!
The answer is the second one, <em>2.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope : y2- y1 / x2 - x1
we have ( -5 , 1 ) which is ( x1 , y1 )
and ( -2 , 7 ) is ( x2 , y2 )
so; 7 - 1 / -2 - (-5)
6/3
= <u>2</u>
<span> x = 5/6 = 0.833.................</span>
Ok so we know that y=1 so we can simply sub in the value of y into the equation :
y = -5x +3
1 = -5x +3
Move the -5x to the LHS ( Left-hand-side ) therefore it changes sign as well move 1 to the RHS ( Right-hand-side ) it also changes sign.
5x = 3 - 1
5x = 2
x = 2/5
x = 0.4
Hope this helps :).
