Please write this equation as <span>f(x) = −18 + x^2 − 3x
Rewrite it in descending order by powers of x: f(x) = x^2 - 3x - 18
Since the coefficient of the x^2 term is +, the graph opens UP.</span>
Note: Since the symbols for greatest integer function (GIF) and least integer function (LIF) are not given, I will be using the words GIF and LIF in the solution
GIF x means largest integer less than or equal to x, and LIF x means least integer greater than or equal to x.
We need to determine which expressions are equal
Option 1: GIF 4.9 and LIF 3.1
GIF 4.9 = 3
LIF 3.1 = 4
Hence GIF 4.9 ≠ LIF 3.1
Option 2: GIF 15.2 and GIF 14.8
GIF 15.2 = 15
GIF 14.8 = 14
Hence, GIF 15.2 ≠ GIF 14.8
Option 3: GIF -6 and LIF -6
GIF -6 = -6
LIF -6 = -6
Hence, GIF -6 = LIF -6
Option 4: LIF -3.2 and LIF -2.6
LIF -3.2 = -2
LIF -2.6 = -1
Hence, LIF -3.2 ≠ LIF -2.6
Hence, only in Option C the pair of expressions are equal.
