A 2-column table with 7 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 5, negative 3, negative 1, 1, 3, 5, 7. The second column is labeled f of x with entries 8, 4, 0, negative 2, negative 2, 0, 4. Which is a valid prediction about the continuous function f(x)? f(x) ≥ 0 over the interval [5, ∞). f(x) ≤ 0 over the interval [–1, ∞). f(x) > 0 over the interval (–∞, 1). f(x) < 0 over the interval (–∞. –1).

Anew obstacle course is home to several new types of challenging obstacles. one such obstacle is traversing a 15-stair staircase. to make it more challenging, the stairs are not uniformly spaced. rather, the vertical space between consecutive stairs for the first 10 stairs is 113 feet and the vertical space for the last 5 stairs is 134 feet. what is the total vertical distance traveled ascending and descending the entire 15-stair staircase?
