I'm assuming that the signs inside each circle is its sign. So, negative sign in the circle means it is a negative number and vice versa.
a.) Given:
7 circles w/ negative signs, 4 out of 7 circles are crossed out.
- 7 - 4 = -11
b) Given:
7 circles with positive sings and 5 circles with negative signs. The 5 negative circles are crossed out.
+ 7 - (-5) = 7 + 5 = 12
I'm not sure if I am correct but I answered based on what I understand from the given data.
Ok! So, given a quadratic function<span>, </span>y<span> = ax</span>2<span> + bx + c, when "a" is positive, the </span>parabola <span>opens upward and the vertex is the minimum value. On the other hand, if "a" is negative, the graph opens downward and the vertex is the maximum value. Now, let's refer back to our original graph, </span>y<span> = </span><span>x2</span><span>, where "a" is 1.
Hope this helps.</span>
Answer:
I think the answer is (origin)
1/2 because everything lose half its value points wise.
