Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
Because
(2,6) is in the function, we can plug
6 as y
and
2 as x.
From that we get
6=a(2−1)2+k
6=a+k
Same for the next point:
12=a(3−1)2+k
12=22a+k
12=4a+k
Now we have this system of equations to solve:
a+k=6
4a+k=12
Solving it leads to the conclusion that
a=2,k=4 .
