Call the number of blue jays

and the number of robins

We are told there are twice as may robins as blue jays:

and, there are 21 birds in total:

thus, by substitution:

combine like terms:

solve for

:

back substitute:

There are 7 blue jays and 14 robins.
f(x)=3x^2-18x+10
a = 3, b = -18 and c = 10
The vertex of a parabola is in form a(x+d)^2 + e
d = b/2a = -18/2(3) = -18/6 = -3
e = c-b^2/4a = 10 - -18^2/4(3) = 10-27 = -17
Now the vertex form of the parabola becomes 3(x-3)^2 -17
Use the vertex form of the parabola in the vertex form of y = a(x-h)^2 +k
Where a = 3, h = -3 and k = -17
Now you have y = 3(x-(-3))^2 +(-17)
Simplify: y = 3(x+3)^2 -17
The vertex becomes the h and k values of (3,-17)
Based on your image, I will assume u meant: 
This means that x will have two solution sets, due to the absolute value.

The answer will be 15 to the power of 15.
