Answer:
f(-4) = 72, f(x + 5) = 3x² + 23x + 36
Step-by-step explanation:
f(-4) = 3(-4)² - 7(-4) - 4
= 48 - (-28) - 4
f(-4) = 72
f(x + 5) = 3(x + 5)² - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3(x + 5)(x + 5) - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3(x² + 10x + 25) - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3x² + 30x + 75 - 7x - 35 - 4
f(x + 5) = 3x² + 23x + 36
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
A) as the x-values go to positive infinity, the functions values go to negative infinity.
Explanation:
We can see in the graph that the right hand portion continues downward to negative infinity. The right hand side of the graph is "as x approaches positive infinity," since x continues to grow larger and larger. This means as x approaches positive infinity, the value of the function approaches negative infinity.
The answer would be C) As the number of hours of studying increases, test scores increase because the scatterplot has a cluster that increases from left to right.
