Which of the following is true for the relation f(x)=2x^2+1

The height of a flare fired from the deck of a ship in distress can be modeled by h(t)= -2(8t^2-52t-28), where h is the height of the flare above water and t is the time in seconds. a. find the time it takes the flare to hit the water.

Simplify. −4x^2 (5x^4−3x^2+x−2) −20x^6−12x^4+8x^3−8x^2 −20x^6+12x^4−4x^3+8x^2 −20x^8+12x^4−4x^2+8x −20x^6+12x^4+4x^3−8x^2
