We can see from the description that the parabola opens up, and it has x-intercepts at 2 and negative 6. Therefore, the solutions to the equation f(x) = 0 are two solutions: x = 2 and x = -6. Thus, the correct response is: two solutions: x = 2, -6.

To find the solutions of the equation 2x^2 = 2, we can graph the related function y = 2x^2 - 2 and identify the x-intercepts.

The response that correctly describes the graph of the related function and the solutions is:

An upward facing parabola passes through points (-1, 0), (0, -1), and (1, 0).
There are two solutions: x = -1 and x = 1.

To solve the equation x^2 + 9x - 14 = 0 by completing the square, we follow these steps:

1. Move the constant term to the right side of the equation:
x^2 + 9x = 14

2. Take half of the coefficient of x (which is 9) and square it. Add this result to both sides of the equation:
x^2 + 9x + (9/2)^2 = 14 + (9/2)^2
x^2 + 9x + 81/4 = 14 + 81/4

3. Simplify both sides of the equation:
x^2 + 9x + 81/4 = 98/4 + 81/4
x^2 + 9x + 81/4 = 179/4

4. Rewrite the left side of the equation as a perfect square:
(x + 9/2)^2 = 179/4

5. Take the square root of both sides, considering both positive and negative square roots:
x + 9/2 = ±√(179/4)

6. Solve for x by isolating it on the left side:
x = -9/2 ± √(179/4)

The correct response is: x = -9/2 ± √(179/4), which can be approximated to x ≈ -10.35 and x ≈ 1.35.

To simplify the expression (x^4 - 81)/(x + 3), we can factor the numerator as the difference of squares:

(x^4 - 81) = (x^2)^2 - 9^2
= (x^2 - 9)(x^2 + 9)

Therefore, the simplified form of the expression is:

[(x^2 - 9)(x^2 + 9)] / (x + 3)

The correct response is: the quantity x squared minus 9 times the quantity x squared plus 9.
