Answer: Because the a-value is negative.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The vertex form of a quadratic equation is: y = a(x - h)² + k where
- "a" is the vertical stretch
- -a is a reflection over the x-axis
- h is the horizontal shift (positive = right, negative = left)
- k is the vertical shift (positive = up, negative = down)
Given: g(x) = - (x + 1)² - 3
↓
a= -1
Since the a-value is negative, the parabola will be reflected over the x-axis which will change the curve from (U-shaped) to (∩-shaped).

Answer: b = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
We want a ratio of b/2 that is equal to the ratio of 1/4 to 1 1/4 (or 5/4).
Ratio of (1/4)/(5/4):
(1/4)/(5/4) = (1/4)*(4/5) = 4/20 = 1/5 or 0.2
We want 2/b = 1/5 or 0.20
2/b = 0.20
b = 2/0.20
b = 10

Check: Does 10/2 = (1/4)/(5/4)?
Yes
b is 10

Answer:
Look below
Step-by-step explanation:
Average means the middle of two numbers.
If the larger number is exactly one more or an odd number more than the smaller, it is possible for a half point to occur.
