Answer:

C. y ≤ -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets analyze the graph:

1. It is decreasing function as line goes down as x-value increases. It means the slope is negative. We have two same negatives: -2
2. Line is solid, so the inequality sign is either ≤ or ≥
3. Shaded region is 'under' the line, it means the sign is ≤

Based on above observations and the fact that all have same y-intercept of -2, we can say required inequality is:

y ≤ -2x - 2

Correct option is C

The degree of the polynomial function f(x) is 4 The roots of the equation f(x)=0 are -4,-1, 2 and 5 Which graph could be the gra

Sauron [17]

If the roots of the equation f(x)=0 are -4,-1, 2 and 5, then binomials (x+4), (x+1), (x-2) and (x-5) are factors of needed polynomial.

Thus, the polynomial will have form

$f(x)=a(x+4)(x+1)(x-2)(x-5),$ where a is real coefficient (positive or negative). This polynomial has degree 4 as needed.

The form of the graph depends on the sign of coefficient a. Attached diagrams show two different cases of possible forms of graphs (first one for positive coefficient a, second one for negative coefficient a).
