F(x) = -(x + 8)² - 1 

<span>The function (not its graph) decreases on interval [-8, ∞). It is a quadratic function in vertex form. That form makes it easy to pick out the one extremum, where x equals -8. The leading coefficient is negative, so the extremum must be a maximum. The function decreases as x increases from there. </span>

<span>Notice that I include the value -8 in the interval. The function does not have instantaneous decrease at that value, but that is not what it means for a function to be decreasing over an interval. </span>

<span>Let a and b be any two values on [-8, ∞), such that a < b. </span>

<span>-8 ≤ a < b </span>

<span>Then f(a) > f(b). Therefore, function f is decreasing on interval [-8, ∞).</span>

A circle has a diameter of 41 centimeters. Which equation can be used to find the radius of this circle? r=41π r=2(41) r=412 r=4
irinina [24]

Answer:

r=41/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the diameter,  41, by 2 because the radius of the circle is half of the diameter. So, the answer would be 20.5

Please help me I am really confused.
Feliz [49]

Answer:

f(96) = 85

Step-by-step explanation:

f'(95) gives us the slop of 6, which can be used to estimate the increase

of the next number.

Ex) f(95) = 79 & f'(95) = 6 so

     f(96) = 79 + 6 = 85
