The answer is the fourth one (D): glaucoma.

Explanation for each option:

  • Presbyopia: This is a condition associated with aging where the eye's lens loses its ability to focus on close objects. Eyedrops are not typically used to treat presbyopia; instead, corrective lenses or surgery are common treatments.
  • Macular degeneration: This is a condition that affects the central part of the retina (the macula) and leads to vision loss. While there are treatments available, such as injections and laser therapy, eyedrops are not a primary treatment for macular degeneration.
  • Cataracts: This condition involves the clouding of the eye's lens, leading to decreased vision. The primary treatment for cataracts is surgical removal of the cloudy lens, not eyedrops.
  • Glaucoma: This is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to high intraocular pressure. Eyedrops are commonly used to lower the pressure inside the eye and are a primary treatment for glaucoma.

Summary: Eyedrops are primarily used to treat glaucoma, making option D the correct answer.

Find the entire domain on which the function f is one-to-one and non-decreasing. Write the domain in interval notation. f(x) = (x+5)^2 [-5, infinity) Find the inverse of f restricted to that domain. f^(-1)(x) = [0, infinity) To help Identify a domain on which the function is non-decreasing, determine an interval on the x-axis for which the function values increase as the x-values increase. Graphing the function may be useful. How does restricting the domain to this interval make the function one-to-one? How does the restricted domain determine which root, positive or negative, should be considered when finding the inverse of the quadratic function?

Chris, who is transgender, was up for promotion to a supervisory position at work but did not get it. A person on the decision-making committee later confided to him that the reason the job was given to someone else was because Chris was transgender. In what way can Chris respond? He is subject to the laws of that state, which might differ. He can sue on the basis of sex discrimination and gender identity. He has no legal recourse. He cannot sue but can go to arbitration if he belongs to a union.
