A vertical parabola goes through (1,-2), (-3, 10), and (4, 31). Use matrices to solve for D, E, and F, given the general form x² + y2 + Dc + Ey + F = 0 (since it

is a vertical parabola there is not a z term).

D = 1/2 , E = -1/2 , F = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

vertical parabola : ( 1,-2), ( -3, 10 ), (4, 31 )

General form ;

( 1 ,-2 ) = x1, y1

( -3, 10 ) = x2, y2

( 4, 31 ) = x3, y3

hence :

attached below is the detailed solution required

D = 1/2 , E = -1/2 , F = -5/2

-14 is the answer
