Question

Write an equation for a quadratic function in vertex form with a vertex of (3,1) that has the point

Answer 1

Answer:

y = (x - 3)² + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a quadratic function in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

here (h, k ) = (3, 1 ) , then

y = a(x - 3)² + 1

to find a substitute (1, 5 ) into the equatiuon

5 = a(1 - 3)² + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

4 = a(- 2)² = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )

1 = a

then equation of quadratic function is

y = (x - 3)² + 1
