Can someone me i'm on a deadine the ratio of the number of cups of red paint to the number of cups of yellow paint that garcia mixed to make a shade of orange paint is 4: 1. part a: write a sentence to describe the number of cups of red paint that garcia mixed with each cup of yellow paint. part b: how many cups of yellow paint should garcia add to each cup of red paint to make the shade of orange? explain your reasoning part c: if garcia purchased 6 cups of red paint for $42, what is the unit price per cup of red paint?

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
