Answer:
head, back, throat, breast, wings, tail, and legs
The equation can be written in vertex form as
y = a(x +2)² - 3
Substituting the given values, we can find the coefficient "a".
-5 = a(-1+2)² -3
-2 = a . . . . . . . . . add 3 and simplify
The coefficient of the squared term is -2.
First, write a statement to define your unknown variable. This is technically not essential to solving the problem, but many teachers prefer to see it.
Example: Let w = the manatee's weight in pounds.
Next, decide what the variable needs to be multiplied by. 12% is equal to 0.12. Usually when a problem says "of," it wants you to multiply. Therefore, 12% of the body weight equals 0.12w. Since the problem already says that this is how much the manatee eats every day, that is your answer.
y = 0.12w

Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change is found by
rate of change = f(b) -f(a)
------------
b-a
We need to find the rate of change for the interval 7,9 and 4,6
We know b= 9 and a = 7
f(9) -f(7)
