Compare ƒ(x) = -2x² - 8x + 20 to the graph of g(x) shown.  What can you conclude about the two functions?

•  ƒ(x) has a greater maximum than g(x).

• g(x) has a greater maximum than ƒ(x).

• ƒ(x) has a minimum, while g(x) has a maximum.

• g(x) and ƒ(x) have the same maximum.

Which scenario could be modeled by a linear function?

• the population of a city that is growing by 3% each year

• the amount of carbon in a sample that is decaying by half every 6 hours

• the number of calories burned when running at a constant speed

• the height of a rocket 6 hours after takeoff
