the right answer is first one
A. 5
(2,4,5,7,9)
5 is in the middle between 4 and 7.
It’s f(0)=3 because f(0) just means y intercept which is 3
A slope of any line parallel to y = x + 2 will be 1.
The slope of parallel lines are always equal. Since we do not see a number next to the x in the original equation, there is an assumed 1 there. Therefore any line that is parallel with it would also have to be 1.
We see it is the y terms squared so it opens left or right
in form
(y-k)^2=4(p)(x-h)
vertex is (h,k)
and p is distance from focus to vertex, also distance from vertex to directix
if p>0, then it opens to the right and dirextix is to the left of vertex
if p<0, then it opens to the left and directix is tothe right of vertex
so
(y-1)^2=4(4)(x-(-3))
vertex is (-3,1)
4>0 so dirextix is to left of vertex
left is in x direction
-3-4=-7
directix is x=-7
