Answer:
f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k
Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.
The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):
x - h = 0
-2 - h = 0
-h = 2
h = -2
So the function ends up looking like:
f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2
Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:
f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A + B + C = 180

Answer:
x = -3 or x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 9 from both sides.
x^2 - 9 = 0
Factor the left side. There is no common factor of the terms. It is a binomial which is the difference of two squares, so it factors into the product of a sum and a difference.
(x + 3)(x - 3) = 0
Set each factor equal to zero.
x + 3 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
Solve each equation.
x = -3 or x = 3
Answer:
Mirandah added 5x and 9y, which she shouldn't do because one is y and the other is x, meaning they don't match.
There is no simplifying the equation. It should stay 5x + 9y - 4
If wrong, I apologize, but this should be correct.
Substitute 15 for p and 12 for q in p + q. We get 15 + 12, or 27.
