Question 616915: 1. You are given the coordinates of the vertex (2,-2) and of a point (-9,3) on a parabola. Find the coefficients for the equation of the parabola.
Put in y=ax^2+bx+c form.
2.Given the functions
f(x) = 5x2 − 4x + 2
g(x) = 3x + 6
Compute the following (you must simplify each polynomial as far as possible to receive full credit) Use the ^ (shift-6 on the keyboard) to enter a power. So to enter x2 + 3x + 1, you would type x^2 + 3x + 1.
What is f(g(x))?
What is g(f(x))? Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. in vertex form ___ y = a(x - 2)^2 - 2
___ substituting the given point (to find a) ___ 3 = a(-9 - 2)^2 - 2 ___ 5 = 121a ___ a = 5/121
___ y = (5/121)(x - 2)^2 - 2 ___ y = (5/121)x^2 - (20/121)x - 238/121
