Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

The integers 5 and 5 sum to 10 and have the largest possible product.

___

The two numbers will be x and (10-x). Their product is x(10-x), which describes a downward-opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=10. The maximum (vertex) of that parabola is halfway between the zeros, at x=5. Both integers have the same value: 5. Their product is 25.

If there is a requirement the integers be distinct, then 6 and 4 are the integers of choice. Their product is 24.

ASAP!! Please help me. I will not accept nonsense answers, but will mark as BRAINLIEST if you answer is correctly with solutions

Answer:

C. It has been stretched horizontally.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the diagram, the parabola has not been reflected in any way, nor has it been translated, since the parabola is pointing up in a smile, and the vertex is still at the origin.

The parabola does appear to be stretched, since the parent function had points at (1, 1), and (2, 4), but this parabola does not contain those points.

Since the parabola appears to be flatter than the parent function, we can say that C. It has been stretched horizontally.

Hope this helps!
