Answer:
f(x) > 0 over the interval
Step-by-step explanation:
If f(x) is a continuous function, and that all the critical points of behavior change are described by the given information, then we can say that the function crossed the x axis to reach a minimum value of -12 at the point x=-2.5, then as x increases it ascends to a maximum value of -3 for x = 0 (which is also its y-axis crossing) and therefore probably a local maximum.
Then the function was above the x axis (larger than zero) from , until it crossed the x axis (becoming then negative) at the point x = -4. So the function was positive (larger than zero) in such interval.
There is no such type of unique assertion regarding the positive or negative value of the function when one extends the interval from to -3, since between the values -4 and -3 the function adopts negative values.

A triangular prism is a closed solid that has two parallel triangular bases connected by a rectangle surface.
A box is in the shape of an equilateral triangular prism.
If the box is to be covered with paper on its lateral sides.
Let a be the side length of the equilateral triangle and h be the height of the prism.
Then the surface area of the triangular prism will be
Surface area = 2 × area of triangle + 3 × area of the rectangle
The area of the triangle will be
