Find the solution to the system of equations.
−7x−2y=14
6x+6y=18

x= -4

y= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

"multiply the top equation by 3, then both y's are cancelled or zeroed out. You add -21 and 6 to get -15x. Than you add 42 and 18 to get 60. So, -15x=60 and from there you do 60/-15 to get x=-4. Plug in what you got for x into any of the two equations to get y, which is 7"

Okay, so the formula you're looking at is y = a(x - h)2+ k and you're trying to find your vertex, or the turning point, which is (h,k)

With the given  the h is going to be 2 and the k will be 8 giving you the vertex of (2,8) or, in this case, the turning point of this graph.

The way you get a positive 2 for h is because in the formula you have an (x-h) and since the h=-2 anytime you have a number (x) subtracted by a negative number, (--2) the negatives cancel out leaving a positive 2 

So you're answer is (2,8)
