Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction can be found be taking the current amount over the total amount:
Since Darlene has only typed 23 pages out of 59, her fraction is 23 over 59. Fractions must always be in simplest form, which means that both the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same factor. Since the numbers 23 and 59 are both prime and have no other factors other than 1 and themselves, the fraction 23/59 is in simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:
I don't have graphing facilities but can give you the vertex and 1 other point.
Given a parabola in standard form
y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
x = -
y = - x² - 2x + 8 ← is in standard form
with a = - 1 and b = - 2 , then
x = - = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into the equation for corresponding value of y
y = - (- 1)² - 2(- 1) + 8 = - 1 + 2 + 8 = 9
vertex = (- 1, 9 )
To obtain another point substitute any value for x into the equation
x = 0 : y = 0 - 0 + 8 , then (0, 8 ) is a point on the graph
x = 2 : y = - (2)² - 2(2) + 8 = - 4 - 4 + 8 = 0 then (2, 0 ) is a point on the graph
