Answer:
1A. C B E D A F
B. H G J K I L
Step-by-step explanation:
Treat this as you would the quadratic equation x^2 - 4x - 3 + 0. Solve this by completing the square:
x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4 - 7 = 0
(x^2 - 4x + 4) = 11
(x-2)^2 = 11, and so x-2 = plus or minus sqrt(11).
Graph this, using a dashed curve (not a solid curve). Then shade the coordinate plane ABOVE the graph.
If x is fish, y is octopi, and z is crabs, then you would have to know the numbers.
Then your answer would be c. 30x+80y-15z.
Because x=+30, y=+80, and z=-15.
I hope that helps. If you need any further help on this problem just ask.
