Answer:

all real numbers less than or equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the range we require the value of the y- coordinate of the vertex.

Given

f(x) = - (x + 5)(x + 1) ← equate f(x) to zero to find the zeros, that is

- (x + 5)(x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is at the midpoint of the zeros

x_{vertex} = \frac{-5-1}{2} = \frac{-6}{2} = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into f(x) for y- coordinate of vertex

y_{vertex} = - (- 3 + 5)(- 3 + 1) = - (2)(- 2) = 4

The vertex = (- 3, 4 )

and - (x + 5)(x + 1) = - (x² + 6x + 5) = - x² - 6x - 5

Since the coefficient of the x² term is - 1 < 0

then the vertex is a maximum ∩

Hence range is [ 4, - ∞ )

That is all real numbers less than or equal to 4

if you’re good with set theory in math 30 please help with questions 31 and 32!! real answers only !!
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:  31) d     32) c

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

31)

A = {1, 3, 5, 15}

B = {2, 3, 5, 7}

A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 15}

C = {2, 4, 6, 8}

(A ∪ B) ∩ C = {1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 15} ∩ {2, 4, 6, 8} = {2}

<em>2 is the only number in both sets</em>

32)

The pattern is: reflection, add symbol, ..., reflection, add symbol.

The last image shown is: add symbol

So the next image will be: reflection (flipped to the left)
