Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is how to approach the problem:
We see that all our restrictions for all four answer choices are relatively the same with a couple of changes here and there.
One way to eliminate choices would be to look at which restrictions don't match the graph.
At x<-5, there is a linear function that does have a -2 slope and will intersect the x axis at -7. The line ends with an open circle, so any answer choice with a linear restriction of x less than or equal to -5 is wrong. This cancels out choices C and D.
Now we have two choices left.
For the quadratic in the middle, the vertex is at (-2,6) and the vertex is a maximum, meaning our graph needs to have a negative sign in front of the highest degree term. In our case, none of our quadratics left are in standard form, and instead are in vertex form.
Vertext form is f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k.
h being the x-coordinate of the vertex and k being the y-coordinate.
We know that the opposite of h will be the actual x-coordinate of the vertex, so if our vertex is -2, we will see x+2 inside the parenthesis. This leaves option A as the only correct choice.

answer
Inverse Property of Addition
Answer:
56 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need the measure of < g.
The triangle formed by the 2 tangents and the chord is isosceles, because 2 tangents from a point outside a circle are of equal length (by the Two Tangents theorem).
Also one of the base angles are equal to 62 degrees ( by The Tangent Chord theorem). In fact both base angles are 62 degrees because the triangles an isosceles.
So measure of angle g = 180 - 2(62)
= 56 degrees.
Answer:
$5599.20
Step-by-step explanation:
The quarterly interest rate for the first two years was ...
7%/4 = 0.0175
So, the multiplier each quarter for those 8 quarters was 1+0.0175 = 1.0175. At the end of the first 8 quarters, the account value had been multiplied by ...
1.0175^8
For the next 8 quarters, the quarterly interest rate was 10%/4 = 0.025. So at the end of those 8 quarters, the balance had been multiplied by ...
1.025^8
Then the balance at the end of 4 years was ...
$4000(1.0175^8)(1.025^8) ≈ $5599.20
The balance was $5599.20.
