Q. Graph the parabola.\newliney=x210x+27 y=x^{2}-10 x+27 \newlinePlot five points on the parabola: the vertex, two points to the left of the vertex button.
  1. Find Parabola Vertex: Find the vertex of the parabola. The vertex form of a parabola is y=a(xh)2+ky = a(x - h)^2 + k, where (h,k)(h, k) is the vertex. To find hh, use the formula h=b/(2a)h = -b/(2a). In our equation, a=1a = 1 and b=10b = -10, so h=(10)/(21)=10/2=5h = -(-10)/(2\cdot1) = 10/2 = 5.
  2. Calculate Vertex Coordinates: Find the kk value of the vertex by plugging hh into the original equation. y=(5)210(5)+27=2550+27=2y = (5)^2 - 10*(5) + 27 = 25 - 50 + 27 = 2. So the vertex is (5,2)(5, 2).
  3. Plot Vertex on Graph: Plot the vertex (5,2)(5, 2) on the graph.
  4. Calculate Left Points: Choose two xx-values to the left of the vertex. Let's pick x=3x = 3 and x=4x = 4. Calculate the corresponding yy-values. For x=3x = 3: y=(3)210(3)+27=930+27=6y = (3)^2 - 10*(3) + 27 = 9 - 30 + 27 = 6. For x=4x = 4: y=(4)210(4)+27=1640+27=3y = (4)^2 - 10*(4) + 27 = 16 - 40 + 27 = 3. Plot the points (3,6)(3, 6) and (4,3)(4, 3).
  5. Calculate Right Points: Choose two xx-values to the right of the vertex. Let's pick x=6x = 6 and x=7x = 7. Calculate the corresponding yy-values. For x=6x = 6: y=(6)210(6)+27=3660+27=3y = (6)^2 - 10*(6) + 27 = 36 - 60 + 27 = 3. For x=7x = 7: y=(7)210(7)+27=4970+27=6y = (7)^2 - 10*(7) + 27 = 49 - 70 + 27 = 6. Plot the points (6,3)(6, 3) and (7,6)(7, 6).
