Given equation, y = – 1.3(x + 3)2 – 9 is in slope intercept form.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form standard formula:
y = mx + c
where,
y= y intercept
x= x intercept
m = slope
c = constant
We are given:
y = - 1.3(x + 3)2 - 9
y = - 2.6x + 7.8 - 9
y = -2.6x -1.2
So,
Slope = m = -2.6
constant = 1.2
In order to be continuous everywhere, we only need to satisfy continuity at
. For that to happen, we need to have

By the function's definition,
. Compute the limits:


So we must have

If it were four consecutive odd numbers then it would be x, x+2, x+4, x+6 and not x, x+1, x+2, x+3. That is just four consecutive integers.
So if you want four consecutive ODD numbers then:
x+x+2+x+4+x+6=216
4x+12=216
4x=204
x=51 so the odd integers would be:
51, 53, 55, 57
For the first one i would choose the second answer, Not both.
