A portion of the graph of f(x) = −x2 − 2x + 8 is shown. Which of the following describes all solutions for f(x)?

Answer:
where −5 ≤ x ≤ 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is .
We want to select the option that describes all the solutions to the parabola.
The domain of the parabola is −5 ≤ x ≤ 3.
This means that any x=a on −5 ≤ x ≤ 3 that satisfies (a,f(a)), is a solution.
This can be rewritten as
Therefore for x belonging to −5 ≤ x ≤ 3, all solutions are given by:
where −5 ≤ x ≤ 3.

Answer:
a rational expression is an expression that has a RATIO in it
look at the word "RATIO"nal
a ratio is just a fraction...
so your question is "how to simplify fractions"
lots of approaches, this is one of them...
PRIME FACTOR the numerator and denominator
90 = 2 * 3 * 3 * 5
135 = 3 * 3 * 3 * 5
= 2/3 (the two 3's cancel and the 5's cancel)

Answer:
Distance covered by the bird before meeting the water is: 51.264 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that if the bird catches the fish in 2 seconds, then the fish was able to dive down a total of 6 feet before being caught:
So the bird needs to fly in the direction of the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle (see attached image) that has one leg of length (24 ft + 6 ft) = 30 ft, and another one 22.5 ft (half the width of the river.
Such hypotenuse is (using Pythagoras theorem):
Now, in order to find the distance D the bird covers from the top of the tree to the water (marked in red in our image), we use similar triangles. The bigger triangle is that of legs 60 ft and 22.5 ft and hypotenuse 64.08 ft.
The smallest triangle we use in the proportion is the one shaded yellow in the image, which has one leg equal to 24 ft, and unknown hypotenuse:
So we make the proportion between known legs, and hypotenuses:
