Consider the functions.

Question illustration
A
The minimums of g(x) and h(x) are both in the first quadrant.
B
The minimums of g(x) and h(x) are both in the third quadrant.
C
The minimum of h(x) is farther right and up from the minimums of f(x) and g(x).
D
The minimum of h(x) is farther left and down from the minimums of f(x) and g(x).

Two different functions are represented.

Question illustration
A
Neither function A nor function B has an x-intercept.
B
Neither function A nor function B has a y-intercept.
C
The domain and range of both functions contain only positive numbers.
D
The domain and range of both functions contain only positive numbers and zero.
5

Which statements comparing the functions are true? Select three options.

A
Only f(x) and h(x) have y-intercepts.
B
Only f(x) and h(x) have x-intercepts.
C
The minimum of h(x) is less than the other minimums.
D
The range of h(x) has more values than the other ranges.
E
The maximum of g(x) is greater than the other maximums.
6

Two different functions are shown.Function A:Function B:

Question illustration
A
The x-intercept in function B is one-third as large as the x-intercept in function A.
B
The x-intercept in function B is three times as large as the x-intercept in function A.
C
The distance between the x-intercepts in function A is half the distance between the x-intercepts of function B.
D
The distance between the x-intercepts in function A is twice the distance between the x-intercepts of function B.

Employees at a manufacturing plant have seen production rates change by approximately 105% annually. In contrast, the graph shows the change in the average annual wages of the employees.

Question illustration
A
The annual changes cannot be compared because the initial production value is unknown.
B
The annual change in production has exceeded the annual change in the average salary.
C
The annual change in production increases at a slower rate, 5% per year, than the annual increase in the average salary, $500 per year.
D
The annual change in production increases at a slower rate, 105% per year, than the annual increase in average salary, $500 per year.

The tables show functions representing the growth of two types of bacteria on certain days within an experiment that lasted a total of 10 days.

Question illustration
A
Since x-intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
B
Since y-intercepts indicate the amount of each bacteria at the start of the experiment, there was more of bacteria B than bacteria A at the start.
C
Since the maximum value in the table for bacteria A is greater than the maximum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a faster growth rate than bacteria B.
D
Since the minimum value in the table for bacteria A is less than the minimum value in the table for bacteria B, bacteria A has a slower growth rate than bacteria B.
