Please help me answer question #21 meeting all the conditions a-f.
Note that this is not graded work. I obtained this question from an old textbook to help me practice solving problem sets. Let me know if you have additional questions.

Transcribed Image Text:The image presents graphs of quadratic functions, each labeled with its equation. Below is a detailed explanation of each graph and the required characteristics:
**Graphs and Functions:**
1. **19. P(x) = (x - 2)²**
- The graph is a parabola opening upwards with its vertex at (2, 0).
- **(a)** Vertex: (2, 0)
- **(b)** Domain: All real numbers; Range: y ≥ 0
- **(c)** Axis of symmetry: x = 2
- **(d)** Increasing on (2, ∞)
- **(e)** Decreasing on (-∞, 2)
- **(f)** Minimum point at vertex with a minimum value of 0
2. **20. P(x) = (x + 4)²**
- The graph is a parabola opening upwards with its vertex at (-4, 0).
- **(a)** Vertex: (-4, 0)
- **(b)** Domain: All real numbers; Range: y ≥ 0
- **(c)** Axis of symmetry: x = -4
- **(d)** Increasing on (-4, ∞)
- **(e)** Decreasing on (-∞, -4)
- **(f)** Minimum point at vertex with a minimum value of 0
3. **21. y = (x + 3)² - 4**
- The graph is a parabola opening upwards with its vertex at (-3, -4).
- **(a)** Vertex: (-3, -4)
- **(b)** Domain: All real numbers; Range: y ≥ -4
- **(c)** Axis of symmetry: x = -3
- **(d)** Increasing on (-3, ∞)
- **(e)** Decreasing on (-∞, -3)
- **(f)** Minimum point at vertex with a minimum value of -4
4. **22. P(x) = -0.5(x + 1)² - 3**
- The graph is a parabola opening downwards with its vertex at (-1, -3).
- **(a)** Vertex: (-1, -3)
- **(b)** Domain: All real numbers;
