The axis of symmetry of the graph of y = -(x+4)2 -6 is
1 answer:
Ok so u were close but the answer is actually C and here's why:
The vertex of the parabola is ( -4 , -6 ) And you can tell this since the equation is in vertex form y = a(x - h)^2 + k
Remember axis of symmetry cuts the parabola down the middle meaning it goes through the x axis. x = -4

It would be a 12.5% increase. First you find her monthly wages: $10.50 x 160 hours= $1680 a month. Her insurance is $210/month. So you need to find what percentage 210 is of 1680. So 
. Solve for x by dividing 1680 on both sides and you get 0.125. Multiply by 100 to get the percentage and you get 12.5%. Check your answer by multiplying 1680 x 0.125 and you get 210.
