9 < x
this means that x is a larger number than 9
9 = x
this means that x is equal to 9
Answer:
C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that one of the lines is simply y=-1 for any x, so we can dismiss the only answer without y=-1. That rejected answer is A)
Now let's notice, that the other line is decreasing y when increasing x. That tells us that in the equation y = ax + b, a has to be negative. This brings us to reject option D).
What is the y of that line for x = 0? Because y = ax + b, for x = 0 we will get the value of b. This is called the intercept. The line is at y=4 for x=0, so we know that the b in the equation must be positive 4. This fits answer C, but rejects answer B). And so, we have found that C) is the only possible answer.
I'm NOT 100% confident in my answers.
Graph 1:
Range: Option B
Graph 2:
Range: Option A
The range has to start at zero since that's the lowest point we can go, only one with zero is first option.

Answer:
Multiply x by 4 and make x negative if it's positive or make x positive if it's negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying x by a number greater than 1 will stretch the parabola.
Changing x from positive to negative and vice versa reflects the parabola over the x-axis.
