1) Proportion a.

7 : 28 = 2 : 8

That means that the ratio 7 / 28 is equal to the ratio 2 : 8. 

You can verify the equality by simplifying to the simplest form:

     7 : 28 = 1 / 4 simplest form
     2 : 8 = 1 / 4 simplest form, then the proportion is right.

In words that is 7 is to 28 as 1 is to 4 ← answer


2) Proportion b.<span>. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6

</span><span>
</span><span>You can verify the proportion by simplifiying the second fraction:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>     18 / 6 = [18 / 6] / [ 6 / 6] = 3 / 1

</span><span>4) Proportion d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5</span>

In words: 81 is to 9 as 45 is to 5 ← answer


Proove it: 
      81 / 9 = 9
      45 / 9 = 9

How can I can the Graphing the function
laiz [17]

in short, you simply pick a few random "x" values, to get the "y", and that's your point, for example say x = 2, then y = -(2)² - 4 => y = -8, that gives us the point of (2, -8), and so on.


we can start off by finding the vertex, the U-turn of the graph, and then just pick a point to its left side and a point to its right side, and we can get the vertex of that by


\bf y=-4x^2-4\implies y=-4x^2+0x-4 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients} \\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{-4}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+0}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-4} \qquad \qquad \left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}~~~~ ,~~~~ c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right) \\\\\\ \left(-\cfrac{0}{2(-4)}~,~-4-\cfrac{0}{4(-4)} \right)\implies (0~,~-4-0)\implies (0,-4)


and since it's a vertical parabola, the axis of symmetry comes from the x-coordinate of the vertex, namely x = 0, check the picture below.
