Describe the y-intercept and end behavior of the following graph:

The graph starts on the top left and curves down to the right, crosses the x axis at negative 2, then crosses the y axis at negative 4 and continues decreasing to the bottom right.

(−2, 0); The graph approaches y = −6 to the right.
(0, −5); The graph approaches y = −6 to the right.
(−2, 0); The graph decreases to the left.
(0, −5); The graph decreases to the left.

Based on graph description ...

Based on what appear to be answer choices ...

Step-by-step explanation:

End behavior

"Starts at top left" means the function approaches +∞ as x approaches -∞.

"Continues decreasing to the bottom right" seems to mean the function approaches -∞ as x approaches +∞.

(While an exponential decay function "continues decreasing", it approaches a limit. Your description of the graph says nothing about that, so we assume it is an odd-degree polynomial function with a negative leading coefficient.)

Y-intercept

"Crosses the y axis at negative 4" means the y-intercept is (0, -4).

Comment on problem statement discrepancies

Perhaps you intended to describe the graph as "approaching -6 at the bottom right." That would match a description, "The graph approaches y = −6 to the right." However, your offered choice of (0, -5) for the y-intercept does not match the verbal description of "crosses the y axis at negative 4."

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

so, it will cost $300.
