The second example is a greater rate of reading.

In order to come to that conclusion, I didn't do any figuring, ciphering,
numerating, or calculating of any kind. I just sat there and looked at
the question. I noticed that the second example is <u>more pages</u> than
the first one, but done in <u>less time</u> than the first one. So I know that
it must be a greater rate of cranking out the pages.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

(-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's bring back to memory vertex formula for parabolas.

$y=a(x-h)^{2}+k$

Where (h,k) is the vertex.

In $f(x)=2(x+1)^{2}-2$

The vertex is (-1,-2)
