We first need to write the function in standard form.
y = -x^2 - 7x + 18
To find the axis of symmetry, we do -b/2a
The a and b are the coefficients of the x values.
So a would be -1 since -x is same as -1x
Follow that, b would be -7.
Then just plug the values in. - (-7)/2(-1) = -7/2
The axis of symmetry is -7/2
Your answer is simply the sympathetic nervous system
Definition-The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is part of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which also includes the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The sympathetic nervous system activates what is often termed the fight or flight response.
The biggest problem for racial integration is that people live in segregated areas: so simply a school can have a majority of children from one background because the area around the school is inhabited by people of this background.
So the correct answer is d. Segregated housing patterns are still common in many communities.
