F(x) = -(x + 8)² - 1
<span>The function (not its graph) decreases on interval [-8, ∞). It is a quadratic function in vertex form. That form makes it easy to pick out the one extremum, where x equals -8. The leading coefficient is negative, so the extremum must be a maximum. The function decreases as x increases from there. </span>
<span>Notice that I include the value -8 in the interval. The function does not have instantaneous decrease at that value, but that is not what it means for a function to be decreasing over an interval. </span>
<span>Let a and b be any two values on [-8, ∞), such that a < b. </span>
<span>-8 ≤ a < b </span>
<span>Then f(a) > f(b). Therefore, function f is decreasing on interval [-8, ∞).</span>

i hope i did this righti tried my best
(x+8)^(2) + (y+9)^(2) = 169
(x+8)^(2) + (y+9)^(2) = 13^2
h = -8
k = -9
r = 13
answer
A. center (-8,-9)
radius = 13
--------------
(x-7)^2 + y^2 = 225
(x-7)^2 + y^2 = 15^2
h = 7
k = 0
r = 15
answer
B. center (7,0)
radius = 15
