In both cases you may well benefit from graphing the functions.
Do you recognize f(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 1 as a quadratic function, whose graph is that of a parabola that opens up? By comparing this to y = a(x-h)^2 + k, we see that a=1, h= -1 and k = -1. The vertex is at (h,k), which here is the point (-1, -1). This is the minimum value of the function. Thus, the range of this function is [-1, infinity).
Now for the function f(x) = 7x - 11: This is a linear function whose graph is (surprise!) a straight line. When x increases, y increases, without limits to either. Similarly, when x decreases, y decreases.
Thus the range includes all real numbers: (-infinity, infinity).
Answer: The quotient is (2x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the dividend = 
Divisor = 
By the long division method for finding the quotient we will follow the following steps,
Steps 1 : Write dividend inside the division sign and divisor outside the division sign,
Step 2: Multiply the divisor by 2x and subtract the result by the dividend,
Step 3: Now, again multiply the divisor by 1,
Step 4: Subtract the result by the remaining dividend,
Since, further division is not possible,
Hence, the sum of all terms that are multiplied = 2x+1
Which is our quotient.
Answer: D: the point (0,0) contains the x-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
First do the case in which none of the digits is 0.
There are 9 ways to choose the digit that repeats 3 times and 8 ways to pick the other, after this there are 4 ways to order the digits. So 9×8×4.
Now we look at the cases in which the digit 0 repeats 3 times. Clearly the 9 numbers are 1000,2000,3000,…,9000.
Lastly we look at the cases in which 0 appears once. There are 9 ways to pick the other digit and 3 ways to order.
So the final answer is 9×8×4+9+9×3.
