does anybody know how the answer to this looks?

when x>2 (x= 3)

f(x) = -(x-2)² +1

when x = 3

f(3) = -(3-2)²+1

f(3) = -(-1)²+1

f(3) = -1+1

f(3) = 0

taking lesser value of x

makes f(x) increase

and when x>1

(x=2)

Now let's take x = 2

f(2) = -(2-2)²+1

f(2)= -(0)²+1

f(2)= 0+1 = 1

Therefore the values of x that makes f(x) = -(x-2)²+1 to increase are are (x>2 and x>1)

the correct is answer is a 9-sided polygon!

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.
