The parabola x = y² - 9 opens: a.)up b.)down c.) right d.)left

Tyler enjoys the fish so much that after his birthday his family decides to take him to a famous aquarium a tank at the aquarium is similar to his tank with the scale factor of 8 how many times greater is the volume of the tank at the aquarium than the volume of tyler tank

Girardo is using the model below to solve the equation . girardo uses the following steps: step 1 add 4 negative x-tiles to both sides step 2 add 1 negative unit tile to both sides step 3 the solution is which step could be adjusted so that gerardo's final step results in a positive x-value? in step 1, he should have added 4 positive x-tiles to both sides. in step 1, he should have added 3 negative x-tiles to both sides. in step 2, he should have added 4 negative unit tiles to both sides. in step 2, he should have added 1 positive unit tile to both sides.
