Answer: d.  The vertical scale is too narrow. It needs to be a wider range, such as 0 to 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical scale is indeed too narrow. It needs to have a wider range that will enable a person who is looking at the graph, better compare the results shown because the magnitude of the number will be more apparent.

A range such as 0 to 100 would be ideal for this and would present the information in such a way that when a person looks at the graph, they understand the relative difference between the percentages who agreed with the court decision.

Answer:

x = - 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 4x² - 20x - 56

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0, that is

4x² - 20x - 56 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )

x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7
