Which monomial function, y = ax^n, is described by the following statements?
as x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases. as x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.
a.) odd monomial function with positive a
b.) odd monomial function with negative a
c.) even monomial function with positive a
d.) even monomial function with negative a

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see from the attachment which is graph with all four possibilities

Odd function and positive "a" which is red graph

Even function positive "a" which is blue graph

Odd function negative "a" which is green graph

Even function negative "a" which is purple graph

Let us assume values of "a" and "n" according to the possibilities.

The required behaviour which is As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases. As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases is shown by purple graph that is odd monomial function with negative "a".

Therefore, Option D is correct.

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.
