The vertex form of any function is : f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k
Hence the correct option would be: A): "-3(x-2)^2-9"

Complete the square:
y = 3x^2 - 12x + 4 
y = 3(x^2 - 4x) + 4 
y = 3(x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4) + 4 
y = 3(x^2 - 4x + 4) - 12 + 4 
y = 3(x - 2)^2 - 8

Felice knows that segment RS || segment QT. She wants to use the definition of a parallelogram to prove that the quadrilateral i

tangare [24]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of a parallelogram is that opposite sides of the quadrilateral are parallel. Felice already knows one pair of opposite sides is parallel. By showing the slope of RQ is the same as the slope of ST, she can show the other pair of opposite sides is parallel, hence the figure is a parallelogram.

The other answer choices are essentially nonsense.
