Answer:
-10 because you do parenthesis first
I think it could be 13,17, and 15.
If I am wrong then I am sorry
The vertex-form equation is
y = a(x+1)² -16
Putting in the y-intercept values, we have
-15 = a(0+1)² -16
1 = a . . . . . . . . . . . add 16
Then the x-intercepts can be found where y=0.
0 = (x+1)² -16
16 = (x+1)²
±4 = x+1
x = -1 ± 4 =
{-5, 3}
To add fractions, first convert them to have equal denominators.
3/4= 9/12 (multiply both sides by 3)
2/3= 8/12 (multiply both sides by 4)
From here, add the numerators while keeping the denominator.
9/12+ 8/12= 17/12
Final answer: 17/12 or 1 5/12
