Answer:
;
is even and greater than zero.
The absolute value function
Step-by-step explanation:
The power function;
;
is even and greater than zero, is symmetric with respect to the positive y-axis.
As and as
The absolute value function also has the same end behavior.
The remaining functions in the options provided do not exhibit this end behavior.

Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 6x² + 5 = 0
let u = x², then
u² + 6u + 5 = 0 ← in standard form
(u + 1)(u + 5) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 1 = 0 ⇒ u = - 1
u + 5 = 0 ⇒ u = - 5
Change u back into terms of x, that is
x² = - 1 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± i ( noting that
= i ), and
x² = - 5 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ±
= ±
×
= ± i
Solutions are x = ± i and x = ± i
