What equation is this y=a(x-h)^2+k ? 10 pts

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-05-06] [Hit: ]
!so its vertex would be (h,the eqn.k= shift on y-axis-the basic quadratic curve first translated h right then stretched scale factor a in the direction parallel to the y-axis and then translated up k-Thats just a parabola shifted to the right h, moved up k, and compressed horizontally (or stretched vertically) a times.......
It is a quadratic equation in the vertex form!!!
so it's vertex would be (h,k)

-
y-k=a(x-h)^2

let Y=y-k & X=x-h
the eqn. becomes
Y=A (X)^2
which is parabola

-
standard equation for a parabola

a= determines how wide or narrow the parabola is
h= shift on x-axis
k= shift on y-axis

-
the basic quadratic curve first translated h right then stretched scale factor a in the direction parallel to the y-axis and then translated up k

-
That's just a parabola shifted to the right h, moved up k, and compressed horizontally (or stretched vertically) a times.

-
this is unanswerable since h k and a are not answered so it is impossible to answer
