A café’s annual income depends on x, the number of customers. The function I(x) = 4x² – 20x describes the café’s total annual income. The function C(x) = 2x² + 5 describes the total amount the café spends in a year. The café’s annual profit, P(x), is the difference between the annual income and the amount spent in a year. Which function describes P(x)?

• P(x) = 2x² – 20x – 5

• P(x) = 4x³ – 20x²

• P(x) = 6x² – 20x + 5

• P(x) = 8x⁴ – 40x³ – 20x² – 100x

Which statement BEST describes the graph of f(x + 6)?

• The graph of f(x) is shifted up 6 units.

• The graph of f(x) is shifted left 6 units.

• The graph of f(x) is shifted right 6 units.

• The graph of f(x) is shifted down 6 units.
