5x -3 = 12
5x -3 + 3 = 12 + 3 [Add 3 to each side]
5x + 0 = 15 [Evaluate]
5x/5 = 15/5 [Divide each side by 5]
1x = 3 [Evaluate]
The answer I get is the number 3.

That's vertex form for a parabola
and we read off vertex (p,q) as
Answer: Vertex (5,7)
The negative <em>a</em> tells us this is a downward opening parabola (upside down from the usual
. I remember CUP - Concave Up Positive; here <em>a </em>is negative so not a cup, instead concave <em>down.</em> The same rule applies to second derivatives in calculus so memorize it now and use it later.
Answer: downward
Answer:
n^2+8n+16
Step-by-step explanation:
(n+4)^2
=(n+4) (n+4)
= n^2+4n+4n+16
=n^2+8n+16
Step-by-step explanation:
Since line NL is not necessarily congruent to MQ (labelled with different congruent marks), triangle NLM is not congruent to triangle MQP.
Instead, triangles NLM and QPM are congruent.
