1. a. Determine the equation of a parent function for the parabola that has zeros 1,-5.
Determine the member equation that passes through the point (-2,-36)

Respuesta :

The member equation which passes through the point (-2,-36) is y = 4 ( x-1)(x+5) .

What is a Parabola ?

Parabola is a U shaped figure , whose all points are at a fixed distanced from a point called as focus and a line called as Directrix.

It is given that

The zeroes of the parabola is 1,-5.

The equation of the parabola is given by

y = a( x - x')(x-x'')

y = a( x-1)( x+5)

This is the equation for the parent function for the parabola

The parabola passes through the point ( -2 , -36 )

-36 = a( -2 -1)(-2+5)

-36 = (-3) * (3) a

-36 = -9 a

a = 4

y = 4 ( x-1)(x+5)

The member equation which passes through the point (-2,-36) is y = 4 ( x-1)(x+5) .
