False Happy Thanksgiving :)
Answer:
the answer I got is negative 4
Let Brian's steps have a measure of 1, and Richard's steps have a measure of k. Then after each walks 5 steps away from the other, their distance apart is
... 5 + 5k
We are told that distance is equal to 9 of Richard's steps, so is equal to 9k.
... 5 + 5k = 9k
... 5 = 4k . . . . . . . subtract 5k
... 5/4 = k . . . . . . divide by 4
Richard's steps are 5/4 the size of Brian's steps. The appropriate selection is
... b) 5/4
For this case we have the following functions:

When composing the functions we have:

Substituting values we have:

Rewriting:

The function has a horizontal asymptote at y = 3.
Therefore, the range of the function is all reals minus y = 3.
Answer:
option 3
F(x)=x^2 +8x
f(d-3) basically what we get from this is that the x value is d-3
to find f(d-3) simply plug in d-3 for every x
f(d-3)=(d-3)^2 + 8(d-3)
that would be one form of the answer, but we can also continue multiplying it out
f(d-3)= d^2-6d+9+8d-24
add like terms
f(d-3)=d^2+2d-15
have a nice day and i hope this helps :)
