On a coordinate plane, a curved line, labeled f of x, with a minimum value of (negative 1. 9, negative 5. 7) and a maximum value of (0, 2) crosses the x-axis at (negative 2. 5, 0), (negative 0. 75, 0), and (0. 75, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, 2). Which statement is true about the graphed function f(x)? f(x) < 0 over the intervals (–[infinity], –2. 5) and (–0. 75, 0. 75). F(x) > 0 over the intervals (–[infinity], –2. 5) and (–0. 75, 0. 75). F(x) < 0 over the intervals ( –2. 5, –0. 75) and (–0. 75, [infinity]). F(x) > 0 over the intervals ( –2. 5, –0. 75) and (0. 75, [infinity]).

In which text sample are the ideas organized most logically? a. a butterfly starts its life as an egg. the egg hatches to reveal a tiny caterpillar. the caterpillar eats a lot of leaves. it grows quickly, shedding its skin as it grows. this shedding takes place four or more times in a process known as molting. the caterpillar then forms a pupa or chrysalis. inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar slowly transforms into a beautiful butterfly. b. the molting process is characteristic of caterpillars. eventually the caterpillar grows into a beautiful butterfly. the caterpillar eats a lot of leaves, growing quickly. as a result, it becomes too big for its skin, and it has to shed its skin four or more times. the caterpillar hatches from the egg laid by a butterfly. c. a tiny caterpillar hatches from the egg. the egg is the starting point of a butterfly’s life. when it becomes a caterpillar, it eats a lot of leaves. it grows quickly, shedding its skin as it grows. this shedding takes place four or more times. this process is known as molting. the caterpillar then forms a pupa or chrysalis. then the caterpillar slowly transforms into a beautiful butterfly. d. the caterpillar forms a pupa or chrysalis. inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar slowly transforms into a beautiful butterfly. but where does the caterpillar appear from? a caterpillar hatches from an egg. the egg is the starting point of a butterfly’s life. when it becomes a caterpillar, it eats a lot of leaves. it grows quickly, shedding its skin as it grows. this shedding takes place four or more times in a process known as molting.
