If we transform the parabola y = (x + 1)2 + 2 by shifting 7 units to the right and 5 units down, what is the vertex of the resulting parabola?

7x+8y=-18, 4x-9y=-3 solve the system of equations

Kayla wants to find the width, ab, of a river. she walks along the edge of the river 65 ft and marks point c. then she walks 25 ft further and marks point d. she turns 90° and walks until her location, point a, and point c are collinear. she marks point e at this location, as shown. (a) can kayla conclude that δ and δ are similar? why or why not? (b) suppose de = 15 ft. what can kayla conclude about the width of the river?

Given that y varies directly to the square root of (x + 1), and that y = 1 when x = 8,(a)express y in terms of .x,(b)find the value of y when x = 3,(c)find the value of x when y = 5.
