What is the equation, in standard form, of a parabola that contains the following points? ( -2, -23.5)(0,-4.5)(4,-26.5)

The equation of parabola is .

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a parabola is quadratic equation.

Let the equation of parabola be

                 .... (1)

The parabola contains points ( -2, -23.5), (0,-4.5), (4,-26.5).

Put (0,-4.5) in equation (1),

Put this value in equation (1).

              ... (2)

Put  ( -2, -23.5) and  (4,-26.5) in equation (2).

                    .... (3)

                 .... (4)

On solving (3) and (4), we get

and

Therefore the value of parabola is

30 units^2

step-by-step explanation:

area is l × w

the length is 3

and the width is 10

3 × 10= 30 units squared
