You can solve this in two ways.

1. Graphical. Plot the graph for x between -5 and 1 (see attachement).
The vertex of the graph is the peak of the curve, which has the coordinates x=-2, y=-9.

2. Analytical. Calculate the derivative of the function f(x)
\frac{df}{dx}=2x+4
Solve the equation:
2x+4=0
will give the solution x=-2.
Replace x=-2 in the f(x) function and you'll get the value of y:
(-2)^2+4 \cdot (-2)-5=4-8-5=-9

You get the same answer: x=-2, y=-9

So the answer is
<span>B. (-2, -9)</span>

Rewrite in simplest terms: -7(5v-10)-7v
Over [174]

Answer: -42v + 70

Step-by-step explanation: You’d multiply -7 with the figures in the brackets, then you’d group like terms then subtract -7v from -35v.

1. -35v + 70 - 7v

Negative multiplied by negative is a positive

2. -35v - 7v + 70

Group like terms

3. -42v +70

Subtract
