Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 2)(x +6)

1) The function is positive for all real values of x where   x > –4 :

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 3   you have -3>-4 but   (-3+2)(-3+6) = -1 ×3 =-3 no positive .

2) The function is positive for all real values of x where

x < –6 or x > –3.

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 2.5   you have -2.5>-3 but   (-2.5+2)(-2.5+6) = -0.5 ×3.5 =-1.75 no positive .

same method for the statement : "The function is negative for all real values of x where

x < –2."

conclusion : statement about the function is true: "The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2."

Answer:

The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2

Step-by-step explanation:

 the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6)  

LEts find the x intercept of the given function

0 = (x+2)(x+6)

x+2=0 so x=-2

x+6 = , so x=-6

x intercepts are -6  and -2

Lets draw a number line and use x intercepts and make 3 intervals

- infinity to -6     , -6 to -2 and -2 to infinity

LEts pick a number from each interval and check with f(x)

x<-6, pick -7

f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6)  

f(-7)=(-7 + 2)(-7 + 6)  =5 , which is positive

–6 < x < –2, pick 4

f(-4)=(-4 + 2)(-4 + 6)  =-4 , which is negative

x>-2, pick 0

f(0)=(-0+ 2)(0 + 6)  =12 , which is positive

The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2

Find two consecutive even integers such that the lesser added to three times the greater gives a sum of 46.
kvv77 [185]
N; n + 2 - the two consecutive even integers

n + 3(n + 2) = 46
n + 3n + 6 = 46   <em> |subtract 6 from both sides</em>
4n = 40      <em>  |divide both sides by 4</em>
n = 10

n + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12

Can someone please give me the perimeter and area answer SHOW WORK
stich3 [128]
Just add up the lengths of the four sides, and you have the perimeter.

The perimeter is:
(4x-7)*2 + (10x^2+4x-2)*2 =
8x-14 + 20x^2+8x-4 =
20x^2 + 16x - 18

At 82°F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of 61 times per minute, and at 91°F, they chirp 124 times per minute. Write an equati
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

y=7x-513

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit

y ---->insect chirping rate in times per minute

we have the ordered pairs

(82,61) and (91,124)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{124-61}{91-82}

m=\frac{63}{9}=7

step 2

Find the equation of the line

we know that

The equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

m=7  ---> the units are chirps per minute/degree F

take the point (82,61)

substitute and solve for b

61=7(82)+b

61=574+b

b=-513

substitute

y=7x-513
