The function f is defined by f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 1). The graph of f in the xy-plane is a parabola. Which
of the following intervals contains the x-coordinate
of the vertex of the graph of f?

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The  zeroes ( = x-intercepts) are x = -3 and x = -1.

So the x -coordinate of the vertex is between x = -3 and x = -1.

The actual x-coordinate is halfway between these value: at x = -2.

the correct answer is semicircle

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is semicircle because the shorter arc joining two points on the circumference of a circle is known as the minor arc, the larger arc is called the major arc, and a semicircle is a half circle, formed by cutting a whole circle along a diameter line.
