Answer:
x = −y+45
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.
Step 2: Add 8 to both sides.
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
Answer:
D. 
Step-by-step explanation:
We graph the points on the graph. The graph is attached.
Let us take two points (1, 14) and (15, 1), and calculate the slope 
between them <em>(we choose these points because the line passing through them will be the best fit for all points) </em>
Thus we have the equation
Let us now calculate 
from the point 
So the equation we get is
Let us now turn to the choices given and see which choice is closest to our equation: we see that choice D. is the closest one, so we pick it.
There are 75 people and you need to give each of them $120 for their graduation day.
The x intercept occurs when y = 0.
0=(x+2)^2 - 1
1=(x+2)^2
Take the square root of both sides. Note that the sqrt of 1 is 1. Then solve for x.
1=x+2
-1=x
The x intercept is -1.
The y intercept occurs when x=0.
y=(0+2)^2 - 1
y=2^2 -1
y=4-1
y=3
The y intercept is 3.
Now, to find the vertex...
This parabola is currently in a format called the vertex form, which is:
f(x) = (x-h)^2 + k
where (h, k) is the vertex.
Therefore, the vertex is (-2, -1).
