Vertex form formula: y = a(x-h)^2 +k, with vertex (h,k)
There are multiple ways to find the vertex. One way is to find the roots and then find the x value exactly in between them, because this parabola is symmetrical.
0 = (x - 3)(x + 2), so x = 3 and -2. The point directly in the middle is x = 1/2 = h
To find the y value of the vertex, plug in 1/2 to the equation.
(1/2)^2 - 2(1/2) + 5 = 4.25 = k
y = (x - 0.5)^2 + 4.25
The side length is 12 - -3 = 15 so the area is 15 squared = 225.

Answer:
3 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
If you walk 1.5 miles in .5 of an hour you take 1.5 and divide it by .5 of an hour and you get the speed you were walking
