Answer:
x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 12 = - 6
6x = - 18
x = - 3
The correct axis of symmetry is x = -1.
Explanation:
Our equation is

.
This is in vertex form, which is
y = a(x-h)² + k, where (h, k) is the vertex.
In our equation, h corresponds with -1 and k corresponds with -3, making the vertex (-1, -3).
The axis of symmetry is the x-coordinate of the vertex; this makes the axis of symmetry for this equation x = -1.
U = (-2,3)
V = (3,0)
midpoint of UV
= ( (3-2)/2 , (3+0)/2 )
= ( 1/2 , 3/2)
= ( 0.5 , 1.5)
X = (0.5 , 1.5) [from fig]
midpoint of UV = X
W= (-2,-3)
V =( 3.0)
Y = ( (-2+3)/2 , (-3+0)/2 )
= (0.5 , - 1.5)
Y = ( 0.5 , -1.5) [ from fig ]
Y is the midpoint of WV
by midpoint theorem ,
UW = 2( XY )
To find markup price, multiply the original number (455) by 1 + the decimal equivilent of the percent increase (.34)
so
455*1.34= $609.70
12/8=
6/4=
3/2
Your answer in simplest form would be 3/2
