Which equation has a graph that is a parabola with a vertex at (-1, -1)?

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a(x - b)^2 + c   where (b, c) is the vertex so when the vertex is (-1, 1) the equation is

y = a(x + 1) ^2 - 1.

where a is some constant.

Is there a list to choose from?

-2 is the right

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
