The parabola is opens upward.
a = (8 – 5)
= 3
Using the standard form:
(x – h)^2 = 4a(y – k)
(x -5)^2 = 12( y – 4)
In general form
x^2 -10x +25 =12y – 48
x^2 -10x -12y + 73 =0
Answer as a compound inequality: 
Answer in interval notation: [-4, 2)
=============================================
Explanation:
The range is the set of all possible y outputs of a function. When dealing with a graph like this, we just look at the highest and lowest points to determine which y values are possible.
The lowest point occurs when y = -4. We include this value. So far we have
which is the same as 
The upper ceiling for the y value is y = 2. We can't actually reach this value because of the open hole at (-3,2). So we say that 
Combine
and
to get the compound inequality 
This says y is between -4 and 2, including -4 but excluding 2.
To convert this to interval notation, we write [-4, 2) where the square bracket says to include the endpoint and the curved parenthesis says to exclude the endpoint.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: equal any two of the three equations together
2x + 3 = 3x - 9
Step 2: isolate the variable
3 = x - 9
6 = x
I think it's D. I will admit that I'm an educated guess.
Eight times two equals sixteen.
two times eight equals sixteen.
four times four equals sixteen.
sixteen times one equals sixteen.
one times sixteen equals sixteen.
eight plus eight equals sixteen
