Answer:
(1, -2) Option A in your list of possible answers
See attached image.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to graph the lines by using a couple of points on the plane for each equation.
For example:
the points (0, -3) and (3, 0) for the line y = x - 3
and the points (0, 1) and (-1, 4) for the line y = - 3 x + 1
Please see the lines in the attached image, and notice that they intersect at the point (1, -2), which gives you the solution for the system.
Answer:
The function is increasing for all real values of x where
x < –4.
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)
The vertex (h,k) represent a maximum
The roots of the function (or x-intercepts) are x=-6 and x=-2
The x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint of the roots
so
The y-coordinate of the vertex is
substitute the x-coordinate of the vertex in the quadratic equation
The vertex is the point (-4,4)
The function is increasing in the interval (-∞,-4)
The function is decreasing in the interval (-4,∞)
