Solution :
Given the equation :




n = 9



Therefore the vertex form of
is
.
If the formula is a+b-c then you need to substitute the letters with the numbers. For this equation the formula would be:
(1+3-4) + (2+5-6)
(4-4) + (7-6)
0 + 1
=1
The answer would be 1
2/3 is equivalent to 16/24
and 5/8 is equivalent to 15/24 miles
15/24+16/24= 31/24
31/24 simplifies to 1 6/24
Which simplifies down to 1 1/6
Miles ran 1 and 1/6 miles
