Hi there!
![\large\boxed{(-\infty, \sqrt[3]{-4}) \text{ and } (0, \infty) }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clarge%5Cboxed%7B%28-%5Cinfty%2C%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-4%7D%29%20%5Ctext%7B%20and%20%7D%20%280%2C%20%5Cinfty%29%20%7D)
We can find the values of x for which f(x) is decreasing by finding the derivative of f(x):
Taking the derivative gets:
Find the values for which f'(x) < 0 (less than 0, so f(x) decreasing):
0 = -8/x³ - 2
2 = -8/x³
2x³ = -8
x³ = -4
![x = \sqrt[3]{-4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-4%7D)
Another critical point is also where the graph has an asymptote (undefined), so at x = 0.
Plug in points into the equation for f'(x) on both sides of each x value to find the intervals for which the graph is less than 0:
f'(1) = -8/1 - 2 = -10 < 0
f'(-1) = -8/(-1) - 2 = 6 > 0
f'(-2) = -8/-8 - 2 = -1 < 0
Thus, the values of x are:

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
You can put x into the answer choices to see if we get y
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
y = -x + 9
y = -(-5) + 9
y = 5 + 9
y = 14
This could be a answer
y = -(-2) + 9
y = 2 + 9
y = 11
y = -(1) + 9
y = -1 + 9
y = 8
y = -(4) + 9
y = -4 + 9
y = 5
we got y every time so the answer is the first one
The answer is A) y = -x + 9
Hope this helps!

<em>We will assume the tent is in the shape of a triangular prism.</em>
The volume of a triangular prism can be found with the following formula, where 
is the width at the base, 
is the height, and 
is the length.
Substitute in the known values.
Simplify — use multiplication.
Simplify — use division.
The volume — or in this case, the amount of living space — is 
.
