Answer:

opens up and has a minimum

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided a is not 0, y=ax^2+bx+c will be a parabola.

The parabola will open up and have a minimum if a is positive.

The parabola will open down and have a maximum if a is negative.

Since 1/2 is positive, then your parabola opens up and has a minimum.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

- 12 meters

28 meters

40 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?

Position of fish = 12 meters below the surface = - 12 ;

Sea level = 0

Elevation = sea level + position

Elevation = 0 + (- 12)

= - 12 meters

2. A sea bird is 28 meters above the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?

Position of bird = 28 meters below the surface = (28) ;

Sea level = 0

Elevation = sea level + position

Elevation = 0 + 28

= 28 meters

3. If the bird is directly above the fish, how far apart are they?

If bird is directly above the fish;

Distance between bird and fish :

Elevation of bird - elevation of fish

28 - (-12)

28 + 12

= 40 Meters
