What’s the answer I need it for my grade to go up

Mr. walker gave his class the function f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 5). four students made a claim about the function. each student’s claim is below. jeremiah: the y-intercept is at (15, 0). lindsay: the x-intercepts are at (–3, 0) and (5, 0). stephen: the vertex is at (–4, –1). alexis: the midpoint between the x-intercepts is at (4, 0). which student’s claim about the function is correct?

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.

Use the ratio test to determine whether ∑n=14∞n+2n! converges or diverges. (a) find the ratio of successive terms. write your answer as a fully simplified fraction. for n≥14, limn→∞∣∣∣an+1an∣∣∣=limn→∞.
