P(x) = x^2 - 1
q(x) = 5(x - 1)
(p - q)(x) = (x^2 - 1) - 5(x - 1)

Answer:

Option c is true.

( (p-q)(x)=(x^2-1)-5(x-1) ) .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

p(x) = x^2-1 and q(x)=5(x-1).

Now we are asked to find the expression of:

(p-q)(x)

We know that the expression (p-q)(x) could also be written as:

(p-q)(x)=p(x)-q(x)

Hence, (p-q)(x)=(x^2-1)-(5(x-1))\\\\(p-q)(x)=(x^2-1)-5(x-1)

Hence option c is true i.e. the expression is:

(p-q)(x)=(x^2-1)-5(x-1)

Write a function, f(x), which has a maximum and a y-intercept of −3.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Answer: One possible equation could be y = -2x^2 - 3.

The equation that is given would be in the shape of an upside down parabola. It would have a maximum (vertex) at (0, -3). 

The point (0, -3) would also be the y-intercept of the graph.

You could change the -2 to any other negative number and the equation would work in your problem.
