Solution:
1. A number is divisible by 12 if and only if it is divisible by both 3 and 4.
2. Check divisibility by 4:
- The last two digits of the number 4508x must be divisible by 4.
- Possible last two digits can be80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, \text{or} 89
- From these,80, 84, \text{and} 88
3. Check divisibility by 3:
- The sum of the digits of the number 4508x must be divisible by 3.
- The sum of the digits 4 + 5 + 0 + 8 = 17.
- We seekx x

Math question: Find the vertex of the parabola represented by the function 𝑦 = -2𝑥^2 + 4𝑥 + 1.Answer: The vertex of the parabola is found using the formula 𝑥 = -𝑏/2𝑎. Substituting the coefficients, we obtain 𝑥 = -4/(2*-2) = 1. Plugging this x-value into the equation, we find the y-coordinate: 𝑦 = -2(1)^2 + 4(1) + 1 = 3. Therefore, the vertex is (1, 3). The
