Answer:
13x^2+2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
that is the right answer
You have to combine the like terms.
Answer:
-2.46
Step-by-step explanation:
-12.41+9.95=-2.46
For 7=s-9 you add 9 to both sides and the answer will be s=16.
Increase in utilities = 267 - 233 = 34
For $233, increase = $34
For $100, increase = 
= 14.59%
Increase in staffing expense = 1411 - 1266 = 145
For $1266, increase = $145
For $100, increase = 
=11.45%
Hence, utilities had the higher percentage growth rate.
Step-by-step explanation:
the y values are still the same size as for the regular f(x).
so, answers c and d are out.
it is just that these same y values are happening in a more squeezed interval as for the regular f(x).
when we look at the endpoints for example, we find that
y = f(x) delivers y = -2 for x = 4
but the red function delivers y = -2 already for x = 2.
similar for y = 2, originally for x = 2, but in red for x = 1.
and for y = -1, originality for x = -2, but in red for x = -1.
let's call the original function black, and the new function red.
so, in other words red(2) = black(4)
red(1) = black(2)
red(-1) = black(-2)
=>
red(x) = black(2x)
and therefore, a. is correct
