First, lets note that the given functions are polynomials of degree 2. Since the domain of a polynomial is the entire set of real numbers, the domain for all cases is:
[tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]Now, lets find the range for all cases. In this regard, we will use the first derivative criteria in order to obtain the minimum (or maximim) point.
case 1)
In the first case, we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1)\text{ }\frac{d}{dx}f(x)=6x+6=0 \\ which\text{ gives} \\ x=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]which corresponds to the point (-1,-8). Then the minimum y-value is -8 because the leading coefficient is positive, which means that the curve opens upwards. So the range is
[tex]\lbrack-8,\infty)[/tex]On the other hand, the horizontal intercept (or x-intercept) is the value of the variable x when the function value is zero, that is,
[tex]3x^2+6x-5=0[/tex]which gives
[tex]\begin{gathered} x_1=-1+\frac{2\sqrt{6}}{3} \\ and \\ x_2=-1-\frac{2\sqrt{6}}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Case 2)
In this case, the first derivative criteria give us
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{d}{dx}g(x)=2x+2=0 \\ then \\ x=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the leading coefficient is positive, the curve opens upwards so the point (-1,5) is the minimum values. Then, the range is
[tex]\lbrack5,\infty)[/tex][tex]\lbrack5,\infty)[/tex]and the horizontal intercepts do not exists.
Case 3)
In this case, the first derivative criteris gives
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{d}{dx}f(x)=-2x=0 \\ then \\ x=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since the leading coeffcient is negative the curve opens downwards and the maximum point is (0,9). So the range is
[tex](-\infty,9\rbrack[/tex]and the horizontal intercepts occur at
[tex]\begin{gathered} -x^2+9=0 \\ then \\ x=\pm3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Case 4)
In this case, the first derivative yields
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{d}{dx}p(t)=6t-12=0 \\ so \\ t=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]since the leading coefficient is postive the curve opens upwards and the point (2,-12) is the minimum point. Then the range is
[tex]\lbrack-12,\infty)[/tex]and the horizontal intercetps ocurr when
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x^2-12x=0 \\ which\text{ gives} \\ x=4 \\ and \\ x=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Case 5)
In this case, the leading coefficient is positive so the curve opens upwards and the minimum point ocurrs at x=0. Therefore, the range is
[tex]\lbrack0,\infty)[/tex]and thehorizontal intercept is ('0,0).

The given equation is
[tex]2x-3=9[/tex]To solve this equation we have to isolate x on one side and put the numbers on the other side
To do that we will add 3 to each side to move 3 from the left side to the right side
[tex]2x-3+3=9+3[/tex]Simplify it
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+0=12 \\ 2x=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now we need to move 2 from the left side to the right side, then
Divide both sides by 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2x}{2}=\frac{12}{2} \\ x=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then the solution of the equation is

What is the image point of (-12, —8) after the transformation R270 oD ?
Answer
(-12, -8) after R270°.D¼ becomes (-2, 3)
Explanation
The first operation represented by R270° indicates a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin.
When a rotation of 270° counterclockwise about the origin is done on some coordinate, A (x, y), it transforms this coordinates into A' (y, -x). That is, we switch y and x, then add negative sign to x.
Then, the second operation, D¼ represents a dilation of the coordinate about the origin by a scale factor of ¼ given.
The coordinates to start with is (-12, -8)
R270° changes A (x, y) into A' (y, -x)
So,
(-12, -8) = (-8, 12)
Then, the second operation dilates the new coordinates obtained after the first operation by ¼
D¼ changes A (x, y) into A' (¼x, ¼y)
So,
(-8, 12) = [¼(-8), ¼(12)] = (-2, 3)

an equation that represents a vertical shrink by a factor of 1/4 of the graph of g(x)=|x| is y = |x|/4
What is vertical stretch/vertical compression ?
• A vertical stretch is derived if the constant is greater than one while the vertical compression is derived if the constant is between 0 and 1.
• Vertical stretch means that the function is taller as a result of it being stretched while vertical compress is shorter due to it being compressed and is therefore the most appropriate answer.
The y-values are multiplied by a value between 0 and 1, which causes them to travel in the direction of the x-axis. This is known as a vertical shrink and tends to flatten the graph. A point (a,b) on the graph of y=f(x) y = f (x) shifts to a point (a,kb) (a, k b) on the graph of y=kf(x) y = k f (x) in both scenarios.
The function g(x) is defined as |x|.
To vertically shrink the graph of g(x) by a factor of 1/4, divide the function by 4.
g(x) = f(x)/3
f(x) is equal to (|x|)/4.

Find the probability of drawing a red ace and then a spade when two cards are dranw (without replacement) from a standard deck of cards.a. 1/102b. 31/102c. 1/2d. 31/64
a. probability of drawing a red ace (first draw)
In a standard deck, there are 52 cards. Out of these 52 cards, two are red aces. Hence, the probability of drawing a red ace is 2/52 or 1/26.
b. probability of drawing a spade (second draw)
On the second draw, 51 cards are left. Assuming that a red ace was taken on the first draw, 13 spades are left on the deck. Hence, the probability of drawing a spade is 13/51.
So, to get the probability of drawing a red ace AND a spade, simply multiply the two probabilities above.
[tex]\frac{1}{26}\times\frac{13}{51}=\frac{13}{1326}[/tex]Then, reduce 13/1326 into its simplest form by dividing both numerator and denominator by 13.

Factor out -4 out of -36 and 16:
[tex]-4(9m)-4(-4)[/tex]Factor out -4 out of [-4(9m) - 4(-4)] :

[tex]-4(9m-4)[/tex]Given circle O with diameter AC, tangent AD, and the measure of arc BC is 74 degrees, find the measures of all other indicated angles.
We want to find the measure of the angles 1 to 8, given that the diameter is AC and the measure of the Arc BC is 74°.
The angle 5, ∡BOC is central and it is equal to the measure of the arc it intercepts, the arc BC. Thus the angle 5 is 74°.
The angle 4, ∡AOB also is central, and it is equal to the measure of the arc AB. As the line AC is the diameter of the circle O, the arc AC is equal to 180°, and thus, the sum of the angles 4 and 5 will be 180°:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \measuredangle4+\measuredangle5=180^{\circ} \\ \measuredangle4=180^{\circ}-\measuredangle5=180^{\circ}-74^{\circ}=106^{\circ} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the angle 4 is 106°.
The angle 6 is an inscribed angle, and thus it is half of the arc it intersects, the arc AB. This means that the angle 6 is 106°/2=54°.
The angle 2 also is an inscribed angle, half of the arc BC, and thus, the angle 2 is 74°/2=37°.
Now, the triangle BOC has the angles 5, 6 and 7, and the sum of those angles is 180°. This means that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \measuredangle5+\measuredangle6+\measuredangle7=180^{\circ} \\ 74^{\circ}+54^{\circ}+\measuredangle7=180^{\circ} \\ 128^{\circ}+\measuredangle7=180^{\circ} \\ \measuredangle7=180^{\circ}-128^{\circ}=52^{\circ} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the angle 7 is 52°.
Following a same argument, we can get the angle 8, as being part of the triangle AOB.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \measuredangle2+\measuredangle4+\measuredangle8=180^{\circ} \\ \measuredangle8=180^{\circ}-37^{\circ}-106^{\circ}=37^{\circ} \end{gathered}[/tex]This means that the angle 8 is 37°.
As the line AD is tangent to the circle O, this means that the lines AC and AD are perpendicular, and thus, the angle 1 is 90°.
Lastly, as the angles 1, 2 and 3 are coplanar, their sum is 180°. This is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \measuredangle1+\measuredangle2+\measuredangle3=180^{\circ} \\ \measuredangle3=180^{\circ}-\measuredangle1-\measuredangle2 \\ \measuredangle3=180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-37^{\circ}=180^{\circ}-127^{\circ}=53^{\circ} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the angle 3 is 53°.

Answer:
They're correct
Step-by-step explanation:
a plant is already 44 cm tall, and will grow one cm every month. let H be height in cm and M months. write and equation relating H to M . then use equation to find plants height after 32 months
H = height in cm
M = months
The plant is already 44 cm tall
GRowth every month = 1 cm
Equation:
H (m) = 44 + m
The height after m months, will be equal to the initial height (44) plus the number of months.
For 32 months, replace m by 32 and solve:
H (32) = 44+32
H (32) = 76 cm
After 32 months, the plant will be 76 cm tall

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]Where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the Hypotenuse. Also, in the right triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle.
We will use the Pythagorean theorem formula on all of the options using the first two given measures as a and b, and check that we the third measure as the value of c.
Option A. 7in, 24in, and 25 in.
We define:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=7 \\ b=24 \end{gathered}[/tex]And apply the Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]7^2+24^2=c^2[/tex]And we solve for c. If the result for x is 25, the triangle will be a right triangle, if not, this will not be an answer.
-Solving for c:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 49+576=c^2 \\ 625=c^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Taking the square root of both sides we find c:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{625}=c \\ 25=c \end{gathered}[/tex]Since we get the third measure as the value of c option A is a right triangle.
Option B. 18ft, 23ft, and 29 ft.
we do the same as did with option A. First, define a and b:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=18 \\ b=23 \end{gathered}[/tex]Apply the Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]18^2+23^2=c^2[/tex]And solve for c:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 324+529=c^2 \\ 853=c^2 \\ \sqrt[]{853}=c \\ 29.2=c \end{gathered}[/tex]We get 29.2 instead of just 29, thus option B is NOT a right triangle.
Option C. 10in, 24in, and 26 in.
Define a and b:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=10 \\ b=24 \end{gathered}[/tex]Apply the Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]10^2+24^2=c^2[/tex]Solve for c:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 100+576=c^2 \\ 676=c^2 \\ \sqrt[]{676}=c \\ 26=c \end{gathered}[/tex]We get 26 which is the third measure given, thus, option C is a right triangle.
Option D. 10yd, 15yd, and 20yd.
Define a and b:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=10 \\ b=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]Apply the Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 10^2+15^2=c^2 \\ 100+225=c^2 \\ 325=c^2 \\ \sqrt[]{325}=c \\ 18.03=c \end{gathered}[/tex]We don't get 20yd as the value of c, thus, option D is NOT a right triangle.
Option E. 15mm, 18mm, and 24 mm
Define a and b:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a=15 \\ b=18 \end{gathered}[/tex]Apply the Pythagorean theorem
[tex]\begin{gathered} 15^2+18^2=c^2 \\ 225+324=c^2 \\ 549=c^2 \\ \sqrt[]{549}=c \\ 23.43=c \end{gathered}[/tex]We don't get 24 as the value of c, thus, option E is Not a right triangle.
Answer:
Option A and Option C are right triangles.
