Sat question
can someone explain to me what this is asking

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex is the turning point of the parabola.

First find the zeros by equating y to zero, that is

(x - 6)(x + 12) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is situated at the midpoint of the zeros, thus

= = = - 3

Thus the x- coordinate of the vertex is x = - 3 → B

the final price would be 29.6925

step-by-step explanation:

39.59 minus 25% equals 29.6925

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
