Question

Which statements are true about the function represented by the graph? Select all that apply. a) The function is negative over the interval (-[infinity], -5). b) The function has zeros at -5, 3. c) The function is negative over the interval (-16, 0). d) The function is positive over the interval (-[infinity], -5). e) The function has zeros at -3, 5. f) The function is positive over the interval (-5, 3). g) The function is positive over the interval (3, [infinity]). h) The function is negative over the interval (-5, 3).

Answer 1

To determine the statements that are true about the function represented by the graph, we can analyze the graph itself. Unfortunately, I cannot see the graph you're referring to as my current capabilities are limited to text-based information only. However, I can provide some general guidance on how to analyze a graph to answer these questions:

1. To determine if the function is negative or positive over a given interval, look at the y-values (the vertical axis) of the graph in that interval. If the y-values are below the x-axis, the function is negative; if they are above the x-axis, the function is positive.

2. To find zeros of the function, look for points on the graph where it crosses the x-axis (i.e., where the y-value is zero).

3. Pay attention to the intervals specified in each statement and compare them to the graph.

Since I don't have access to the graph, I cannot provide specific answers. However, you can follow the guidelines above and analyze the graph yourself to determine which statements are true. If you have any specific questions about certain intervals or points on the graph, feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to assist you further.
