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 :)
For this case we have the following definitions:
A function is even if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = f (x). The even functions have reflective symmetry through the y-axis.
A function is odd if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = - f (x). The odd functions have rotational symmetry of 180º with respect to the origin.
We then have the following function:

Applying the definitions we have:

Answer:
The function is not odd because it is fulfilled:

Therefore, the function is even.
Answer: The depth of the snow has changed .4 inches. This is because it has melted in the warm weather. You can find the difference, by subtracting 1.6 from 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 - 1.6= .4 .4 would be your answer
Hope it helps!!!!
i’m pretty positive you would just subtract!
