$\bf \boxed{y=(x-{{ h}})^2+{{ k}}}\\\\
x=(y-{{ k}})^2+{{ h}}\qquad\qquad vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{vertex is at 4,-4}\implies 
\begin{cases}
h=4\\
k=-4
\end{cases}\implies y=(x-4)^2+(-4)
\\\\\\
\boxed{y=(x-4)^2-4}$

Together teammates pedro and ricky got 2685 base hits last season. Pedro had 277 more than ricky. How many hits did each player

Ksju [112]

Let x be the number of base hits Ricky got. With this representation, the number of base hits Pedro got is x + 277. The sum of their number of hits is equal to 2685. The equation that best represent the scenario is,
x + x + 277 = 2685
The value of x is 1204. Therefore, Ricky got 1204 and Pedro got 1481.
