The axis of symmetry is at x = -3.

This can be found by looking at the basic form of vertex form:

y = (x - h)^2 + k

In this basic form the vertex is (h, k). By looking at what is plugged into the equation, it is clear that h = -3 and k = -4. This means the vertex is at (-3, -4).

It is a fact that the axis of symmetry is a vertical line of x = (vertex value of x). So we can determine that the axis of symmetry is at x = -3

What shapes does a kite consist of?

Oduvanchick [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is a special case of quadrilateral. In which larger diagonal bisects the smaller diagonal at right angle.

A kite is a quadrilateral whose four sides can be grouped into two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other. In contrast, a parallelogram also has two pairs of equal-length sides, but they are opposite to each other rather than adjacent.

$-\frac{1}{2} *(-\frac{5}{6} )+(-\frac{1}{2} )*\frac{1}{3} \\=\frac{5}{12} -\frac{1}{6} \\=\frac{5}{12} -\frac{2}{12} \\=\frac{3}{12} \\\frac{1}{4}$
