The function ƒ is defined by ƒ(x) = (x + 3)(x + 1). the graph of ƒ in the xy-plane is a parabola. which interval contains the x-coordinate of the vertex of the graph of ƒ?

Meghan has created a diagram of her city with her house, school, store, and gym identified. a. how far is it from the gym to the store? b. meghan also wants to walk to get some exercise, rather than going to the gym. she decides to walk along arc ab. how far will she walk? round to 3 decimal places.

Parabolas y=−2x^2 and y=2x^2+k intersect at points a and b that are in the third and the fourth quadrants respectively. find k if length of the segment ab is 5.
