7.(03.01 lc)which set represents the range of the function shown? {(-1, 5), (2,8), (5, 3), 13, -4)} (5 points){-1, 2, 5, 13){(5, -1), (8, 2), (3,5), (-4, 13)){-4, 3, 5, 8}{-4, -1, 2, 3, 5, 5, 8, 13}

21 type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words. if necessary, use / for the fraction bar. the solution set of n2 - 14n = -45 is { (separate the solutions with a comma)

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
