All you have to do is 19+5 because it is 5 less. 19 is 5 less than the kiwis. so 19+5= 24.

There is 24 boxes of kiwis

X is the number of boxes of kiwis
I think this is 5 less than twice the number of boxes of kiwis so 2x-5=19 solve for x
2x=19+5
2x=24
x=12
Explanation: if you double 12 boxes of kiwis is 24 and then subtract 5, you’ll get 19 is the number of boxes of cherries

Answer:

h(x) = 3(x - 5)^2 + 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3x^2 + 8

Shifting 5 units to the right gives:

3(x - 5)^2 + 8

Now 2 units down :

3(x - 5)^2 + 8 - 2

= 3(x - 5)^2 + 6.
