Which equation is y = –3x2 – 12x – 2 rewritten in vertex form? y = –3(x + 2)2 + 10 y = –3(x – 2)2 + 10 y = –3(x + 2)2 – 14 y = –3(x – 2)2 – 2

Vertex form:  

A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

This is parabolic equation and to write as vertex form.

Vertex form:

Take out -3 common from first two term

Add and subtract inside the parentheses square of half of coefficient of x.

Coefficient of x = 4 , half of 4  = 2 , square of 2 = 4

Add and Subtract 4 inside the parentheses

This is vertex form of given equation.

the one that has a slope of 1/2 and is positive.

step-by-step explanation: 2 buckets 1 trip ; 4 buckets 2 trips and so on.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
