So to solve problems like these you can work out each equation by substituting the x and y with the coords from the vertex (2,-4) and which ever one is true is the corresponding equation.
Lets try the first one
A) y = 2( x-2)^2-4 this would become
-4 = 2(2-2)^2-4 we solve this and get
-4 = 2(0)-4
-4 = -4
so it seems like A is the correct answer, of course we'd wanna check out the other answers just to be sure.
Lets try one and do C
C) -2 = 2(-4-2)^2+2
-2 = 2(-8)^2+2
-2 = 130
These aren't equal so this can't be our equation
So you can also do one more just to be super sure you have the right answer but I think A is the correct one :)
Answer:
12. -11
13. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
12. First recall the order of operations (BEDMAS): Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction
For question 12 there is a division and its priority is before other operations in the equation so you must divide 16/-2 first which gives you -8.
From there because addition and subtraction is on the same level of order, you would do the question straight as it is shown (but replace 16/-2 with -8.
Your new equation is -10-8+7 = -11
13. follow the same as above using BEDMAS. It may help to look at it with additional brackets: ((-68)/(-4)) + ((5 x (-3))
- keep in mind there’s an addition between the two
Division and multiplication is on the same level in BEDMAS so first divide -68/-4 = 17
Second multiply 5 x -3 = -15
Now you can combine the two answers using addition: 17 + (-15) = 2
So if my ans was helpful u can follow me.
1:15 pm + 5 minutes =1:20 PM You add 5 minutes because your watch is slow then subtract 3 minutes because you thought the watch was 3 minutes fast. real time is 1:17 PM
1:20 pm - 3 minutes = 1:17 PM
