Which graph best represents the solution to the system of equations shown below? y = -4x + 19 y = 2x + 1 A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair 7, 3. A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair 3, 7. A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair negative 3, negative 7. A coordinate grid is shown from negative 10 to positive 10 on the x axis and also on the y axis. Two lines are shown intersecting on ordered pair negative 7, negative 3.

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

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
