Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Domain restriction: -3 <= x <= 0
Range restriction: -4 <= y <= 0
Discussion
These numbers came directly from the graph. I am assuming the endpoints such as x = -3 are included in the domain.

Potential energy<span> is the </span>energy<span> possessed by an object because of its position.
So it is D the highest point of the trajectory. </span>
So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.
The 6 terms of the series are
... 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10
The sum of them is 75.

You could make use of the formula for the sum of the terms, or you could work out the sum from the given expression. It is easier just to list the terms and and them up.
