Finish the steps below to write a quadratic function for the parabola shown. use the vertex form, f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k, and substitute in the values for h and k. f(x) = a(x – 5)2 + 3 use another point and substitute in values for x and f(x). solve for a. 5 = a(6 – 5)2 + 3 write the function, using the values for h, k, and a. the function is f(x) = (x – )2 + .

Here we want to write the quadratic function for the parabola shown in vertex form.

We will get the function: f(x) = 2*(x - 5)^2 + 3

So the general function of a parabola with vertex (h, k) and leading coefficient a is:

f(x) = a*(x - h)^2 + k

Here, we know the formula:

f(x) = a*(x - 5)^2 + 3

where:

So the vertex is the point (5, 3), and we only must find the value of a to completely determine the parabola's function

We also know that:

f(6) = 5

So we can solve:

5 = a*(6 - 5)^2 + 3

5 = a*(1)^2 + 3

5 = a + 3

5 - 3 = a = 2

So we just found the value of a, replacing this on the parabola's function we get:

f(x) = 2*(x - 5)^2 + 3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
