Answer:
-13 17/24
Step-by-step explanation:
-12 41/24 is equivalent to -(-12 41/24), or - (12 + 24/24 + 17/24)
Combining 12 and 24/24, we get 13, and thus have: -(13 17/24), or
-13 17/24
The option are missing in the question. The options are :
A. P = 2, a = 1
B. 
C. 
D. P = 2, a = 3
Solution :
The given function is 
So for the function to be an exponential growth, a should be a positive number and should be larger than 1. If it less than 1 or a fraction, then it is a decay. If the value of a is negative, then it would be between positive and negative alternately.
When the four option being substituted in the function, we get
A). It is a constant function since 
B). Here, the value of a is a fraction which is less than 1, so it is a decay function. 
C). It is a constant function since the value of a is 1.
D). Here a = 3. So substituting, as the value of x increases by 1, the value of the function, f(x) increases by 3 times.

Therefore, option (D). represents an exponential function.
Answer:
a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line of symmetry for the parabola given by ...
y = ax² +bx +c
is
x = -b/(2a)
Using the given values, we have ...
-2 = -(-4)/(2a)
Multiplying by -a/2, we get ...
a = (4/2)(-1/2) = -1
The value of "a" is -1.
You need to be clearer on what the "roots" are, I haven't learned that term ever, but I think I know what you mean...
It’s 42.5 like the other girl sayied
