Asap i need the vertex of this parabola is at (3,-2). when the x-value is 4, the y-value is 3. what is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabolas equation? a. -1 b. 5 c. 1 d. 7 ( show your work, i would like to know how its done. < 3 )

The vertex of this parabola is at (3,-2). When the x-value is 4, the y-value is 3: (4,3) is a point on the parabola. Let's use the standard equation of a parabola in vertex form:

y-k = a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex (here (3,-2)) and (x,y): (4,3) is another point on the parabola. Since (3,-2) is the lowest point of the parabola, and (4,3) is thus higher up, we know that the parabola opens up.

Substituting the given info into the equation y-k = a(x-h)^2, we get:

3-[-2] = a(4-3)^2, or 5 = a(1)^2. Thus, a = 5, and the equation of the parabola is

y+2 = 5(x-3)^2 The coefficient of the x^2 term is thus 5.

answer: 80,000

step-by-step explanation:

the population doubles every day.

10,000*2=20,000 day 4

20,000*2=40,000 day 5

40,000*2=80,000 day 6
