This question is very oddly worded. The domain is the set of x-values, but this is a set of (x,y) ordered pairs.
I'm reading this question as "Here's a function, { (1,5), (2,1), (-1,-7) }. If this is reflected over the x-axis, what's the range?"
Assuming that is the question that is meant to be asked, reflecting a function over the x-axis will just change the signs of the y-values.
(1,5) -> (1,–5)
(2,1) -> (2,–1)
(-1,-7) -> (-1,+7)
I'd pick the third option.
Since Irina can paint 1 room in 9 hours, that means she paints 1/9 of the room in 1 hour. Her portion of the equation would be 1/9x, with x being the number of hours she works and 1/9 of a room per hour being her speed.
Since Paulo can paint 1 room in 8 hours, that means he paints 1/8 of the room in 1 hour. His portion of the equation would be 1/8x, with x being the number of hours he works and 1/8 of a room per hour being his speed.
The equation would then be 1/9x + 1/8x = 1 (Irina's portion of the room, plus Paulo's portion of the room, equal to one whole room).
Find a common denominator. 72 is the first number that both 9 and 8 divide evenly into. Since 9*8 = 72, we multiply the top of 1/9 by 8 to convert the fraction and get 8/72x. Since 8*9 = 72, we multiply the top of 1/8 by 9 to convert the fractio and get 9/72x. We now have 8/72x+9/72x=1
17/72x=1
Divide both sides by 17/72:
17/72x ÷ 17/72 = 1÷17/72
x=1/1 ÷ 17/72
x=1/1 * 72/17
x=72/17=4.24
Together it should take them 4.24 hours.

Answer:
(2x -3)^2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
In this particular instance, the square is already complete. The rewrite is to show that.
(2x -3)^2 = 0
__
In the general case, ...
(ax +b)^2 = a^2x^2 +2abx +b^2
Comparing this form to the given left-side expression, we see that ...
a = 2, b = -3
So, the trinomial is already a perfect square trinomial.
Say that f(x)=y and we are taking x=2
