Answer:
C. It has been stretched horizontally.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the diagram, the parabola has not been reflected in any way, nor has it been translated, since the parabola is pointing up in a smile, and the vertex is still at the origin.
The parabola does appear to be stretched, since the parent function had points at (1, 1), and (2, 4), but this parabola does not contain those points.
Since the parabola appears to be flatter than the parent function, we can say that C. It has been stretched horizontally.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
- 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is
Here [ a, b ] = [ - 5, - 2 ]
f(b) = f(- 2) = (- 2)² - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0
f(a) = f(- 5) = (- 5)² - 4 = 25 - 4 = 21, thus
average rate of change = 
= 
= - 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"When 200 gallons of oil were removed from a tank" algebraically looks like this:
V - 200.
"...the volume of oil left in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity" algebraically looks like this:
3/7(V)
Therefore, the equation is
V - 200 = 3/7(V)
Begin by multiplying both sides by 7:
7(V - 200) = 3V and
7V - 1400 = 3V so
-1400 = -4V so
V = 350 gallons
That's if the volume of the oil in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity.
For the other part of the problem, we set up the equation almost the same, except the 3/7 is a 1/2:
V - 200 = 1/2(V)
Multiplying both sides by 2 gives you
2(V - 200) = V and
2V - 400 = V so
-400 = -V so
V = 400
3x + 9 = 90
3x = 90 - 9 = 81
x = 81/3 = 27
x = 27
