Let's go through your questions step by step:
Question 1:
Part A: Identify the vertex The vertex of the function \( g(x) = - (x + 6)^2 - 2 \) can be identified from the vertex form of a quadratic function, which is given by \( y = a(x - h)^2 + k \), where \((h, k)\) is the vertex.
For \( g(x) = - (x + 6)^2 - 2 \):
- The vertex is \((-6, -2)\).
Question 2:
Part B. Complete the table To complete the question, I would need the table of \( g(x) \) values or points to be filled in.
Question 3:
Part C: Choose the correct graph of g(x) Without the options provided, I can't select the correct graph, but the key features of the graph of \( g(x) \) are:
- Opens downwards (since the coefficient is negative).
- The vertex is located at \((-6, -2)\).
Question 4:
What is the vertex form of the graphed equation? From the previous part, the vertex form of the equation is: \[ y = - (x + 6)^2 - 2 \]
Question 5:
Use the graph to determine what the equation of the quadratic is in vertex form. Based on the question and context, \( y = - (x + 2)^2 - 2 \) is not a good fit, and since \( y = -2(x + 2)^2 - 2 \) fits as well; however, it would deflate the quadratic, aligning with vertex form discussed. The correct option is likely:
- \( y= -2(x+2)^2 - 2 \).
Question 6:
Identify the x-intercept and interpret its meaning. The equation given is \( h(t) = -16t^2 + 20t \). The x-intercept occurs when \( h(t) = 0 \). This leads to the interpretation:
- \( t = 1.25 \) indicates the time the diver enters the water.
Question 7:
Determine the value of the constant term of the quadratic function in standard form. The constant \( c \) is the y-intercept of the graph when \( x=0 \). Depending on the specific graph, it might need to be read off from it.
Question 8:
The graph of y = 3x² - 12x - 36 has zeros at x = ... To find the zeros, set \( y=0 \). You would need to solve \( 3x^2 - 12x - 36 = 0 \) using the quadratic formula or factoring.
Assuming correct calculations:
- The zeros and vertex would be provided.
Question 9:
y-intercept for the function \( y = 3(2)^t \) The y-intercept occurs at \( t=0 \): This gives \( y = 3(2)^0 = 3 \).
Question 10:
Match the graphs Again, without the specific graphs shown, I can't finalize the placement.
Question 11:
Average rate of change over the interval \([-2, -1]\) Using the formula: \[ \text{average rate of change} = \frac{f(-1) - f(-2)}{-1 - (-2)} = \frac{3 - 1}{1} = 2. \]
Question 12:
Describe the behavior of the function by determining intervals of negative average rate of change. To analyze intervals for a function like \( f(x) = 3x + 2 \), identify points where the slope turns negative: would generally be straightforward linear unless stated otherwise.
Question 13-16:
Each of these questions seems to be multiple-choice-style requiring some knowledge about function characteristics. Here's are choices:
- Quadratics: Range is generally not all real numbers unless opening upwards/downwards.
- Linear: Stays constant with points, as stated.
- Exponential: The rate changes but does not have just a single point, etc.
- Interval mileage for Riley would need distance-time graph analysis.
If you'd provide more specific data or context, I'd be glad to assist further!
