Answer:
a.) f(x) = -⅙(x+3)²+6
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum value, our vertex, is at point (-3,6).
We can insert this value into the vertex form of a quadratic function and then solve for a as follows...
[tex]4.5 = a(0 +3)^2 +6\\4.5=a(9)+6\\-1.5 = 9a \\-.17=a\\a = -1/6[/tex]
a equals -1/6... We can input this into the original equation we used...
f(x) = -1/6(x+3)^2+6
Good luck on the bellwork ;)
