Which number sentences show how to solve the problem? luis bought 5 bags of red balloons for the party. ruby bought 8 bags of mixed-color balloons. each bag contains 35 balloons. how many balloons did luis and ruby buy altogether? a. 8 + 35 = 43 and 5 + 35 = 40 and 43 + 40 = 83 balloons b. 5 + 8 = 13 and 13 + 35 = 48 ballons c. 5 x 35 = 175 and 8 x 35 = 280 and 175 + 280 = 455 ballons d. 5 x 8 = 40 and 40 x 35 = 1400 balloons

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
