The given quadratic describes a parabola that opens upward. Its one absolute extreme is a minimum that is found at x = -3/2. The value of the function there is
(-3/2 +3)(-3/2) -1 = -13/4
The one relative extreme is a minimum at
(-1.5, -3.25).
_____
For the parabola described by ax² +bx +c, the vertex (extreme) is found where
x = -b/(2a)
Here, that is x=-3/(2·1) = -3/2.
Answer:
g(x) has a greater maximum value than f(x).

I just took the test!
Answer:
Redskins cost $0.25 and golden roughs cost $0.35.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let r be the cost of a redskin and g the cost of golden roughs. So we have the system of equations:
r + 4g = 1.65
2r + 3g = 1.55
Multiply the first equation by -2:
-2r - 8g = -3.30
Adding this to the second equation:
-5g = -1.75
g = 0.35.
Now substitute this into the first equation:
r + 4*0.35 = 1.65
r = 1.65 - 1.40
r = 0.25.
