The functions f(x) = –(x − 1)2 + 5 and g(x) = (x + 2)2 − 3 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. is the vertex for each function a minimum or a maximum? explain your reasoning for each function.

Merrida uses a pattern in the multiplication table below to find ratios that are equivalent to 7: 9. if merrida multiplies the first term, 7, by a factor of 6, what should she do to find the other term for the equivalent ratio? multiply 9 by 1. multiply 9 by 6. multiply 9 by 7. multiply 9 by 9.
