To get the vertex of the parabola we proceed as follows;
y=-7(x-4)^2-5
The above can be written as:
y=-7x^2+56x-117
The values of a,b and c are:
a=-7, b=56 and c=-117
x=-b/(2a)
x=-56/(-7*2)=4
but;
y=-7x^2+56x-117
y=-7(4)^2+56(4)-117
y=-5
Thus;
x=4 and y=-5
The vertex will be at point (4,-5)

For each, you'll use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
For function f, you'll use the two points (1,6) and (2,12) since x ranges from x = 1 to x = 2 for function f
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (12-6)/(2-1)
m = 6/1
m = 6
-------------------------------------------
For function g, you'll use (2,4) and (3,20)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (20-4)/(3-2)
m = 16/1
m = 16
-------------------------------------------
For function h, you'll use (0,-6) and (2,-18). The y coordinates can be found by plugging in x = 0 and x = 2 respectively into h(x)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-18-(-6))/(2-0)
m = (-18+6)/(2-0)
m = (-12)/(2)
m = -6
-------------------------------------------
The order from left to right is: h, f, g
Decrease just means getting less.
Decreased way:
16,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
Hope this helped :D
the answer is c because 4(4)+4(5)=36 and 2(4)^2=16 that 36-16=20 and mn (4*5)=20 so that gives you answer c
