Given the function f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 3, we recognize that because of the x^2 factor we have a parabola that opens up. Its vertex is (-1, -3), which I have swiped from the given equation. The axis of symm is x= -1.
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation
If your trying to find the bracelets
The solution is where the two lines meet. From the the graph, it looks like
(1, -1)
We need to find m first.
m+n=12, n=5 (plug in n as 5)
m+5=12 (subtract both sides by 5)
m=7
m-n: we know that m is 7 and n is 5
7-5=2
The final answer is 2.
