Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Dome shaped parabola so 'a' is negative
'c' is determined where x = 0
this value is -1
Axis of symmetry is the x value of the vertex (which is the high point of the dome)
x = -2
y=-x^2-4x-1
when it is an arch like an upside down U then its
-x^2
it passes through the y axis at -1
its vertex or high point is -2,3 so its
-4x
81/36
81/9 is 9
9 times 4 is 36
The answer is 3
The answer is 3 because x= 15/5 = 3
5x-20
multiply and distribute the 5
