Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

It is given that the graph of opens upward and is narrower than the graph of .  

Graph of opens upward, it means coefficient of must be positive.

Graph of is narrower than the graph of , it means coefficient of must lies between 0 to 1, i.e., .

From the given options, only 0.25 is a positive number whose absolute value lies in between 0 to 1.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

answer rather than having to add and subtract the measurements of the semi-circle, notice that the semicircle to the left of ad is actually identical in area to the blank semicircle-shaped space to the left of bc. so if we transferred the red semicircle into the blank space, we would end up with a square of side length 24 cm. the area of a square is s^2 = 24^2 = 676 cm^2.

u also answered this so i think u would know but i am here to

put in or use mine
