I NEED HELP ASAP Given the statement -12 ≤ -15, which of the following is correct? -A. It is a false statement, because -12 is not equal to -15.
-B. It is a true statement, because -12 is less than -15.
-C. It is true, because 12 is less than 15.
-D. It is a false statement, because -15 is less than -12.

D. It is a false statement, because -15 is less than -12.

Step-by-step explanation:

-12 is greater than -15 because on a number line, -12 is closer to 0 and the positives than -15. In the statement, it says that -12 is less than -15, but we just proved that wrong above. Option D is correct, because it says what we said above.

I hope this helps!

D. is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

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
