Answer:
{y | y ≥ -11 }
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer a question like this, it is often helpful to graph the function or to rewrite it to vertex form.
f(x) = 3x^2 +6x -8
f(x) = 3(x^2 +2x) -8 . . . . factor the leading coefficient from x terms
f(x) = 3(x^2 +2x +1) -8 -3(1) . . . . complete the square*
f(x) = 3(x +1)^2 -11
The form of this equation tells you that the graph is a parabola that opens upward. Its vertex is (-1, -11), so the minimum value is -11. The range is the vertical extent of the function values, so goes upward from -11:
y ≥ -11
_____
* Vertex form is ...
f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k
where "a" is the vertical scale factor and (h, k) is the vertex. When "a" is positive, the parabola opens upward; when it is negative, the parabola opens downward.
The square is completed by adding the square of half the x-coefficient inside parentheses, and subtracting the equivalent amount outside parentheses. Here, we had 2x inside parentheses, so we added (2/2)^2 = 1 inside and -3(1) outside, because "a" was 3.

Fractions that aren't equivalent would be 30/60, 34/60 and anything that cannot be the same as 36/60.
It takes them 12 seconds to eat the whole sausage.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
Speed is the rate of change of distance.
Analysis:
If kitten eats x cm, then puppy will eat 14 - x cm
speed = d/t
speed of kitten = 1/2
speed of puppy = 2/3
1/2 = x/t
2/3 = 14 - x / t
t = 2x--------1
2t = 3(14 - x ) -------- 2
substitute t in equation 2
2(2x) = 3(14 - x)
4x = 42 - 3x
7x = 42
x = 42/7 = 6cm
substitute value of x in equation 1
t = 2(60 = 12 seconds.
In conclusion, it takes the both animals 12 seconds to finish the sausage.
