Answer: Choice A
The number line graph is visually showing every number that is 19 or smaller; hence
Note the use of a closed or filled in circle at the endpoint (in contrast to an open circle). This indicates we are including the endpoint 19 as part of the solution set, and that's why we go for "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign.
The statements about the function that are true are
The equation of the graph is given as
f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 7)
The graph of the function is added as an attachment
On the graph, we have
Vertex = (-3, -16)
This is so because the graph has a minimum point of (-3, -16)
Also, the graph crosses the x-axis at x = 1 and x = -7
This means that the graph is positive at x >1 and x >-7
Because the vertex is a minimum, the graph is increasing at the left of its symmetry i.e. x > -3
