Answer:

3 feet by 7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 20 feet

area = 21 feet²

If the desk is a rectangle:

perimeter = 2l + 2w = 2 (l+w) = 20

                                    2 (l+w) = 20 , divide both sides by 2

                                          l+w = 10

area = l · w = 21

What numbers we know that have sum as 10 and their product as 21?

l + w = 10

l · w = 21

factors of 21 are 1,3,7

3+7 = 10

3 ·7 = 21

The dimensions of the desk could be 3 feet by 7 feet.

Vertex is now at (-1,5)

for
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
so veertex is (-1,5)

y=a(x-(-1))^2+5
y=a(x+1)^2+5
a is a constant, we will asssume that it is 1 because all the choices have 1

y=1(x+1)^2+5
y=(x+1)^2+5
