HELP HELP Write the equation of the parabola in vertex form.

vertex (0,3), point (1, - 4)

f(x) =

(Simplify your answer.)

Equation of the parabola: y = 3 - 7x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the parabola with vertex (h,k) is y = a(x - h)^2 + k

Thus, the equation of this parabola is  y = ax^2+3

To find a, use the fact that the parabola passes through the point (1,−4):

-4 = a(1)^2 +3

Solving this equation, we get that a = −7.

Thus, the equation of the parabola is y = 3 − 7x^2.

step-by-step explanation:

ask goog great chance of finding the solution there

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
