Write an equation of the parabola in vertex form.

f (x) = a(x - h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola. ... When written in "vertex form": • (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola, and x = h is the axis of symmetry.

y =0.25(x-4 )^{2}-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of vertex form is as follows:

Y = a(x-h)^2+k

h = the x value for the vertex (in this case it is 4)

k = the y value for the vertex (in this case it is -1)

If you input these into the equation you are left with:

Y = a(x-4)^2-1

To find 'a' I just entered this equation into the Desmos calculator and messed around with the value until the y-intercept was (8,3)

I hope this was able to help! ^_^

step-by-step explanation:

1st step

add 3+6

=9

multipy 9*3

=37

answer: 5 17/33 % (to the tenth)

step-by-step explanation:

he guessed: 34.5 pounds

actual weight is 32.7

there for he is off:

34.5 -32.7 = 1.8

32.7 is the 100%

1.8 represents %? of 32.7

therefore:

32.7   - 100%

1.8     -     x%

x= 1.8*100%/32.7% = 18*100%/327%

x=1800%/327%   = (5 165/327)%

to the tenth:

5 17/33 %
