A coefficient is a number that accompanies a variable. For example, in the expression 2x + 4, the coefficient is 2.
It is 1/16.
A parabola is a type of graph that is not linear, and mostly curved. A parabola has the "x squared" sign in it's equation. A parabola is not only curved, but all the symmetrical. The symmetrical point, the middle of the parabola is called the vertex. You can graph this graph with the vertex, x-intercepts and a y-intercept. A parabola that has a positive x squared would be a smile parabola, and the one with the negative x squared would be a frown parabola. Also, there are the parabolas that are not up or down, but sideways Those parabolas have x=y squared, instead of y = x squared.

Parabolas are used in real life in light reflectors on cars to create a concentrated beam of intense light. Braking distance and stopping distance are quadratic formulas so their graphs are parabolas. A ball in motion in space has a path of a parabola.

The vertex of this parabola is at -3 -1 When the y-value is 0 the x-value is 4. The coefficient of the squared term in the parabolas equation is 7
The vertex of this parabola is at 5 5 When the x-value is 6 the y-value is -1. The coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation is -6.

u look at it.... :-) hey I'm learning about parabolas too
Go study
The vertex of this parabola is at -2 -3 When the y-value is -2 the x-value is -5. The coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation is -3.
The vertex of this parabola is at -5 -2 When the x-value is -4 the y-value is 2. The coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation is 4. y = a(x - h)2 + k; (h, k) = (-5, -2); (x, y) = (-4, 2) 2 = a[-4 -(-5)]2 - 2, add 2 to both sides 4 = a(-4 +5)2 4 = a(1)2 4 = a

Vertex = (3, - 2)Put in vertex form.(X - 3)2 + 2X2 - 6X + 9 + 2 = 0X2 - 6X + 11 = 0=============The coefficeint of the squared term is 1. My TI-84 confirms the (4, 3) intercept of the parabola and the 11 Y intercept shown by the function.
