Explain why the graph of the equation g(x)=-(x+1)^2-3 would be a parabola opening downward

We know that the parabola opens downwards because it has a negative leading coefficient.

<h3></h3><h3>Why the parabola opens downwards?</h3>

For any polynomial, the leading coefficient is the coefficient in the term where is the large exponent of the polynomial.

The sign of that coefficient will determine the end behavior of the graph of the polynomial.

For the case of the parabola, a positive leading coefficient means that the parabola opens upwards, while a negative leading coefficient will mean that the parabola opens downwards.

Now, if you look at our parabola:

g(x) = -(x + 1)^2 - 3

You can see that there is a negative sign, thus when we expand the parenthesis, we will end up with a negative leading coefficient:

g(x) = -x^2 - 2x + 1 - 3 = -x^2 -2x - 2

So we know that the parabola opens downwards.

There are 14 times in the table.  Add up all 14 times, and divide the sum by 14.  The result is the "mean 100-meter sprint time," assuming that you've rounded this off to the nearest tenth of a second.
