the parabola has maximum at 9, meaning is a vertical parabola and it opens downwards.
it has a symmetry at x = -5, namely its vertex's x-coordinate is -5.
check the picture below.
so then, we can pretty much tell its vertex is at (-5 , 9), and we also know it passes through (-7, 1)

Answer:
0,05
Step-by-step explanation:
1)First, Let’s find the mean of the data table
12 + 10 + 12 + 6 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 12 = 66
66 ÷ 8 = 8,25
2)12 - 8,25 = 3,75
10 - 8,25 = 1,25
12 - 8,25 = 3,75
6 - 8,25 = -1,75
8 - 8,25 = -0,75
4 - 8,25 = -3,75
2 - 8,25 = -5,75
12 - 8,25 = 3,75
3) 3,75 + 1,25 + 3,75 - 1,75 - 0,85 - 3,75 - 5,75 + 3,75 = 0,4
0,4 ÷ 8 = 0,05
Answer:
Catron's error is
"She did not follow order of operations"
Step-by-step explanation:
Catron evaluates the expression (negative 9) (2 and two-fifths)
That expression can be written as below

Catron's error is
"She did not follow order of operations"
The corrected steps are
Step1: Given expression is 
Step2: Convert mixed fraction into improper fraction
Step3: Multiplying the terms

Therefore solution
