To find the vertex you need to use the formula
-b
——
2a
So for this problem that would be:

-(-6)
——— = x= -3
2(-1)

Now that you have x, to find y you need to just simply plug the number that you got for x back into the original equation and solve. Like this-

y= -(-3)2-6(-3)-10

y= 6+18-10

y= 4

This means that your vertex is (-3, 4).
I’m not sure if the 2 next to the x is meant to be squared instead of just 2, so let me know if it was meant to be that and I’d be happy to redo it for you!
Hope this helped! If it did I would appreciate it if you considered marking me brainliest!

For 90° clockwise rotation, (x, y) becomes (y, -x).

Your rotated point is (2, 3).

Explain how you know that 88 is a solution to the equation 18x=11 by completing the sentences: The word "solution" means . . . 8
koban [17]

Correct Question:

Explain how you know that 88 is a solution to the equation 1/8x =11 by completing the sentences:

The word "solution" means . . .

88 is a solution to 1/8x=11 because . . .

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️The word solution means the value of the unknown variable, x. This means, when the value of x is substituted into the equation, the equation becomes balance as the value on the left equals the value on the right.

✔️88 is a solution to ⅛x = 11 because:

if we substitute x for 88 into the equation, both sides would be equal.

Thus:

⅛×88 = 11

11 = 11
