Answer:
I believe it is C) decreasing when x > -1
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plot all 3 points on a graph, you will notice that the parabola is facing downwards. This means that on the left side of the vertex, it is increasing (the y-value increases). On the right side of the vertex, it decreases (y-value decreases). Note that "decreasing" refers to the y values.
So, since the vertex's x-value is -1 (we know this from the point (-1, 2)), any x-value greater than -1 will be to the right of the vertex. For example, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. are all greater x-values than -1, so they are all to the right of -1. Since they are on the right, that means the corresponding-values will be decreasing.
Therefore, when x > -1, the parabola is decreasing.

Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
If <em>f(x)</em> is a density function, then its integral over the entire real line should be 1:
so yes, <em>f(x)</em> is indeed a density function.
Answer:
y = 7/5x + 18/5
Step-by-step explanation:
so we have y = mx + b
f(1) = 5
f(-4) = -2
so let's find b
so like if you do (5 - (-2))/(1 - (-4)) you get (5 + 2)/(1 + 4) = 7/5
y = 7/5x + b
so now we can plug in a value like f(1) = 5
5 = (7/5)1 + b
b = 18/5
