The graph of the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6) is shown below.

On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens up. It goes through (negative 6, 0), has a vertex at (negative 4, negative 4), and goes through (negative 2, 0).

Which statement about the function is true?

The function is positive for all real values of x where
x > –4.
The function is negative for all real values of x where
–6 < x < –2.
The function is positive for all real values of x where
x < –6 or x > –3.
The function is negative for all real values of x where
x < –2.

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.

sometimes it can be so they can fit in with a certain group, and others are just like that because of their personality.
