B) skewed right
C) bell-shaped
D) skewed left

An untitled line plot from 36 to 48. The plot displays the following values as dots above the corresponding values on the number line. One dot at 37. One dot at 38. Two dots at 39. Three dots at 40. Four dots at 41. Five dots at 42. Four dots at 43. Three dots at 44. Two dots at 45. One dot at 46. One dot at 47.

Given

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers:

k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10

Work Shown:

note: you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"

f(x) = x^2+3x-10

f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5

f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10

f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10

f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30

Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13

Factor and solve the equation below

x^2+13x+30 = 0

(x+10)(x+3) = 0

x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0

x = -10 or x = -3

The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
