The vertex of a quadratic function is located at (1,4) and the y-intercept of the function is (0,1). what is the value of a if the function is written in the form y=a(x-h)^2+k

  a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the y-intercept values into the equation and solve for a.

  1 = a(0 -1)^2 +4 . . . . with (h, k) filled in, this is y=a(x-1)^2+4

  -3 = a . . . . . . . . . subtract 4, simplify

The value of a is -3.

step-by-step explanation:

∆abc has the points a(1, 7), b(-2, 2), and c(4, 2) as its vertices. formed with the point d(1, 2) as its third vertex, then ∆abd is triangle.

a. 12.5 kg

step-by-step explanation:

f = ma

so

m = f/a = (2500 n)/(200 m/s²) = 12.5 kg

1 n = 1 kg·m/s²
