Answer 1

Answer:

Function f(x) is positive for the values x ≤ -6 and x ≥ -2 and negative in the interval -6 ≤ x ≤ -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in the graph,

Given function is a quadratic function, f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6)

With x-intercepts of the function, x = -6 and -2

Graph below the x-axis represents the negative values of the function.

Graph above the x-axis represents the positive values of the function.

Therefore, function f(x) is positive for the values x ≤ -6 and x ≥ -2 and the function is negative in the interval -6 ≤ x ≤ -2.
