In both cases you may well benefit from graphing the functions.
Do you recognize f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 1 as a quadratic function, whose graph is that of a parabola that opens up? By comparing this to y = a(x-h)^2 + k, we see that a=1, h= -1 and k = -1. The vertex is at (h,k), which here is the point (-1, -1). This is the minimum value of the function. Thus, the range of this function is [-1, infinity).
Now for the function f(x) = 7x - 11: This is a linear function whose graph is (surprise!) a straight line. When x increases, y increases, without limits to either. Similarly, when x decreases, y decreases.
Thus the range includes all real numbers: (-infinity, infinity).
Answer:
horizontal and vertical
Step-by-step explanation:
if its the plus?
Let x be the amount of cement and y be the amount of sand. If <span>the ratio of cement to sand for mortar is 1:3, then

and y=3x.
</span>
So, if <span>Sandy puts in x=7 shovels of cement, then she puts

shovels of sand.

Answer: 21 shovels of sand.
