Answer:
(-5, 0) ∪ (5, ∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
I find a graph convenient for this purpose. (See below)

When you want to find where a function is increasing or decreasing, you want to look at the sign of the derivative. Here, the derivative is ...
f'(x) = 4x^3 -100x = 4x(x^2 -25) = 4x(x +5)(x -5)
This has zeros at x=-5, x=0, and x=5. The sign of the derivative will be positive when 0 or 2 factors have negative signs. The signs change at the zeros. So, the intervals of f' having a positive sign are (-5, 0) and (5, ∞).

AB · BE = CB · BD Given
CB/BE = AB/BD Division Property of Equality
<ABC = <DBE Vertical angles are equal
ΔABC ≅ ΔDBE SAS Similarity Theorem

Answer:
-3.8, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to a system is where the graph cross each other. If you look to where they intersect to the left of the origin, where x is negative, it appears that they intersect ALMOST at -4, but not quite. So -3.8 is going to have to do since we don't have the equations of either graph to find the exact values of x. To the right of the origin, where x is positive, the graphs cross where x = 3..
Since we are calculating the amount that he got correct, we must divide the numerator by the denominator or make the denominator equal 100. I will do it the second way as it is easier in this case.
25*4 = 100
21*4 = 84
84/100 = 0.84
As a decimal, Andrew got 0.84 of his test correct. Hope this helps!
