Question

Please help me. I do not understand this question.

Answer 1

The true statement is h < k ⇒ (3)

Explanation:

∵ The equation of the graph is y =
`√(x+h)` + k

∵ (-h, k) are the coordinates of its vertex point

∵ -h is the x-coordinate of the vertex point

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex point is -3

∴ -h = -3

→ Divide both sides by -1

∴ h = 3

∵ k is the y-coordinate of the vertex point

∵ y-coordinate of the vertex point is 4

∴ k = 4

∵ 3 < 4

→ That means h is smaller than k

∴ h < k

∴ The true statement is h < k
