B) -8 + (-12)
Because you just have to use the distributive property and distribute -1 to (8+12)

Answer: Choice A</h3>
Domain = (a,b]
Range = [mc + n,md + n)
==============================================
Explanation:
The domain stays the same because we still have to go through f(x) as our first hurdle in order to get g(x).
Think of it like having 2 doors. The first door is f(x) and the second is g(x). The fact g(x) is dependent on f(x) means that whatever input restrictions are on f, also apply on g as well. So going back to the "2 doors" example, we could have a problem like trying to move a piece of furniture through them and we'd have to be concerned about the f(x) door.
-------------------
The range will be different however. The smallest value in the range of f(x) is y = c as it is the left endpoint. So the smallest f(x) can be is c. This means the smallest g(x) can be is...
g(x) = m*f(x) + n
g(x) = m*c + n
All we're doing is replacing f with c.
So that means mc+n is the starting point of the range for g(x).
The ending point of the range is md+n for similar reasons. Instead of 'c', we're dealing with 'd' this time. The curved parenthesis says we don't actually include this value in the range. A square bracket means include that value.
I think the answer is 32% because if you turn 32% into a decimal (which would be 0.32) then multiply it by 25 you would get 8. Which then means if he stopped 8 times and went through 25 intersections then he stopped at 32% of the intersections. I hope this helps :)
