Graph y=0 , 5x^2

$y = 0$ , $5 x^{2}$

Step 1

Graph $y = 0$ .

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Find the values of $m$ and $b$ using the form $y = m x + b$ .

$m = 0$

$b = 0$

The slope of the line is the value of $m$ , and the y-intercept is the value of $b$ .

Slope: $0$

y-intercept: $(0, 0)$

Slope: $0$

y-intercept: $(0, 0)$

Find two points on the line.

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{array}$

Graph the line using the slope, y-intercept, and two points.

Cancel the common factor.

$d = \frac{5 \cdot 0}{5 \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$d = \frac{0}{1}$

Divide $0$ by $1$ .

$d = 0$

Find the value of $e$ using the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

Substitute the values of $c$ , $b$ and $a$ into the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{0^{2}}{4 \cdot 5}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Raising $0$ to any positive power yields $0$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{0}{4 \cdot 5}$

Multiply $4$ by $5$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{0}{20}$

Divide $0$ by $20$ .

$e = 0 - 0$

Multiply $- 1$ by $0$ .

$e = 0 + 0$

Add $0$ and $0$ .

$e = 0$

Substitute the values of $a$ , $d$ , and $e$ into the vertex form $5 x^{2}$ .

$5 x^{2}$

Set $y$ equal to the new right side.

$y = 5 x^{2}$

Use the vertex form, $y = a {(x - h)}^{2} + k$ , to determine the values of $a$ , $h$ , and $k$ .

$a = 5$
