    It doesn't matter which other point we use. As long as the point is on the graph of the parabola, it will satisfy the equation. Pick any convenient point. I hope that helps.

    Question: I notice in many of these types of problems the value of a = the slope between the vertex and the second point that you choose... but then I noticed that making that assumption did not always get me the right answer. Why is this? Is it ever safe to take the slope between the two points as a?

    • @hanniejam7048
      @hanniejam7048 3 роки тому +1

      you meant x = -4 ?
      that's because substituting that value for x was to find the value of a; also, the x could be any value, as long as it is a real number. -4 was just used because the point chosen was (-4,2)
      this was a late comment but ye
      either i understood ur question wrong or i'm giving the correct response *.*
