Question

Parabola A can be represented using the equation (x + 3)2 = y, while line B can be represented using the equation y = mx + 9. Isabel claims one solution to the system of two equations must always be the vertex of parabola A. Which best describes the reasonableness of her claim?

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is c, Isabel is incorrect because the point of intersection between line B and parabola A that can be determined is the y-intercept of the equations, not the vertex.

Answer 2

The answer is not A!
