Hello there!
Knowing that the vertex form of the quadratic equation is
y=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) represents the vertex, and the a value represents the leading coefficient of the quadratic equation in standard form, first plug in your known values (your given coordinate point can be plugged into the x and y values, and your given vertex can be plugged into h and k):
-4=a(0-10)^2-9
Because your a value is still unknown, you can use your given values in the equation to solve for a:
-4=a(-10)^2-9
-4=100a-9
100a=5
a=1/20
Now that you have your a value, you can plug it into your vertex form as well as your vertex values to get that your equation in vertex form is:
y=1/20(x-10)^2-9
Y = -1.5x + 5.7
y = 0.5x + 0.3
-1.5x + 5.7 = 0.5x + 0.3
-1.5x - 0.5x = 0.3 - 5.7
-2x = - 5.4
x = -5.4/-2
x = 2.7
y = 0.5x + 0.3
y = 0.5(2.7) + 0.3
y = 1.35 + 0.3
y = 1.65
solution is (2.7, 1.65)
Sophia is more likely to be correct because the x coordinate is between 2 and 3 and the y coordinate is in between 1 and 2

Answer:
38°
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of required angle can be obtained by using cosine law.
From the given triangle we find that:
a = 5, b = 3, c = 7,
Since,
cos (A) = (b^2 +c^2 - a^2) /2bc
Therefore,
cos (A) = (3^2 + 7^2 - 5^2) /(2*3*7)
cos (A) = (9 + 49 - 25) /(42)
cos (A) = (33) /(42)
cos (A) = 0.785714286
A = arccos(0.785714286)
A = 38.213210675°
A = 38°
There are 16 ounces in one pound. So we do 7 divided by 16 to get our answer.
7 / 16 = 0.4375 ≈ 0.4 lbs
7 oz is approximately 0.4 lbs.
