Answer:

x = 3  and  x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are substituting for x.

Let us take a look at our given answers.

x = -13 and x = -3 would not work because the numbers would not add up to -5. Since we have the positive brackets (or whatever you call them.) surrounding the x variable, that means that all numbers that are plugged into x will be positive.

-13 will be turned into 13,

13 - 8  \neq  -5

So that is wrong.

x = 3 and x = 3 would work because plugging it in, all outcomes from the two numbers would be negative.

3 - 8 = -5

|-3|  - 8 = -5

True.

The third one won't work because of the same reasons as the first one.

Then, the last one would not work well because, there is a solution.

Y = 2x^2
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

y = 2x^2 is a parabola opening up with it's vertex at (0,0)... y=3x^2 -4 is also a parabola opening up, but it is 'thinner' in that it rises in y faster and it's vertex is at (0,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

all equations of the type y = ax^2 + b are parabolas centered on the y-axis, soo the vertex is always on (0,b)

If a is positive then the parabola opens up,

the bigger a is, the 'thinner' the graph is, i.e. the faster the graph rises

the value of b determines the location of the vertex, if b is added, then the vertex rises over the x-axis, if b is subtracted then the vertex is below the x-axis
