Nthe same coordinate system, a motorboat starts at (2, 3) and travels toward the island along a path that can be modeled with a quadratic function with a vertex at (-1,-1.5). (x, y) = the boat's position vertex form of a quadratic equation: y = a(x - h)2 + k what equation models the path of the motorboat in the coordinate system?

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

The equation representing the quadratic function having the vertex ( h,k ) is given by .

As, the vertex for the given system is ( -1,-1.5 ). We get the equation is,

.

Now, as the motorboat starts at ( 2,3 ). Substituting the values in above equation gives us,

.

i.e. .

i.e. .

i.e. .

i.e. .

i.e. .

i.e. .

Hence, the equation that models this path is .

$650 per month plus utilities

step-by-step explanation:

just based on the info you gave, it would seem more cost effective to rent at $650 per month plus utilities.   if utilities are, in fact, $150 per month, your monthly living costs would be $800 as opposed to the other option of $825.
