Answer:
D. right 4, down 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The usual transformations applied to functions are ...
f(x) ⇒ f(x -h) . . . . translation right h units
f(x) ⇒ f(x) +k . . . . translation up k units
f(x) ⇒ k·f(x) . . . . . vertical scaling by a factor of k; reflection over x-axis when k < 0
f(x) ⇒ f(x/k) . . . . . horizontal scaling by a factor of k; reflection over y-axis when k < 0
In the above, "scaling" will be expansion when |k| > 1, compression when |k| < 1.

Your transformation is ...
x^2 ⇒ (x -4)^2 -8
f(x) ⇒ f(x -4) -8
This is translation with h=4 and k=-8. That is, it is translation right 4 units and down 8 units.

Like much of math, it is all about matching patterns.
Answer:
the last one is a polynomial
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a 68% probability that the manager chooses someone who speaks Spanish.
There are 8 people that don't know Spanish. That leaves 17 people that do speak Spanish.
25 - 8 = 17
17 out of 25 is 68%
