Answer:

The first statement is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is f(x) = - (x + 6)(x + 2)  

⇒ f(x) = - x² - 8x - 12

Now, condition for a function f(x) to be increasing at x = a is f'(a) > 0.

Now, f(x) = - x² - 8x - 12

⇒ f'(x) = -2x - 8 {Differentiating with respect to x}

Now, f'(a) = -2a - 8 {Here a can be any real value}

And, the condition for increasing function at x = a is  

- 2a - 8 > 0

⇒ - 2a > 8

⇒ a < - 4

Therefore, the first statement is true i.e. the function is increasing for all real values of x where  x < – 4. (Answer)

Which of the following is the measure of angle RCP?
enyata [817]

Answer:

From the information provided we have:

PD ≅ RD (= 11)

∠CPD ≅ ∠CRD (= 90°)

They both have CD as the hypotenuse.

=> ΔCPD ≅ ΔCRD

=> ∠PCD ≅ ∠RCD

Now we know that:

∠RCP = ∠PCD + ∠RCD

∠RCP = 2 · ∠RCD

∠RCP = 2 · 33° = 66°

So the answer is B
