Average speed the others are categorical.
When the coefficient of a term is 1 or -1, we don't write it, we just use the + or - sign. The coefficient of the c term is -1, because of the - sign in front of it and the lack of written coefficient. Any questions?
Given equation : y=ax^2
Taking a to the other side we have, x^2=(1/a)*y
This equation describes a parabola that opens up.
When a is negative, the focus is on the negative y-axis, therefore, the parabola opens down.
The answer is a. down.
-3x+9 = -3(2x+3) + 3(x-4)+1
distribute
-3x+9 =-6x-9+3x-12+1
add like terms
-3x+9= -3x-20
add 3x to each side
9 = -20
there are no solutions because 9 does not equal -20
Answer: -5x+-10 using the distributive property
