Which of the following characteristics best describes the given function of f(x) = -2x + 5 ?

A) minimum, always decreasing, exponential function

B) minimum, always decreasing, linear absolute value function

C) no maximum or minimum, always increasing, linear function

D) no maximum or minimum, always decreasing, linear function

D

Step-by-step explanation:

the Negative sign in front of 2 shows the function is decreasing

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
