Question

question 2 of 10

the vertex form of the equation of a parabola is \\(x = (y - 4)^2 + 27\\).
what is the standard form of the equation?

a. \\(x = y^2 + 8y + 27\\)
b. \\(x = y^2 + y + 15\\)
c. \\(x = 4y^2 - 8y + 43\\)
d. \\(x = y^2 - 8y + 43\\)

Explanation:

Expand the squared binomial

$$ (y - 4)^2 = y^2 - 8y + 16 $$

Substitute and simplify the equation

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Answer:

  • A. \(x = y^2 + 8y + 27\)
  • B. \(x = y^2 + y + 15\)
  • C. \(x = 4y^2 - 8y + 43\)
  • D. \(x = y^2 - 8y + 43\) (Correct answer)
