The graph of f(x) = x^2 is shown.

compare the graph of f(x) with the graph of d(x) = x^2 - 25

ANSWER

D. the graph of d(x) will be 25 units below the graph of f(x).

EXPLANATION

The graph of

is the base function.

The graph of

is a vertical translation of the base function 25 units down.

This implies that, the graph of d(x) will be 25 units below the graph of f(x).

Therefore the correct answer is D.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
