Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex can be located most easily by completing the square of

f(x) = -X^2 - 2x - 1 (which is equivalent to -(x^2 + 2x + 1).  The latter expression can be rewritten as -(x + 1)^2, which indicates that the x-coordinate of the vertex is -1.  The corresponding y-value is 0.  Vertex is at (-1, 0).

The function is increasing for x < -1 and decreasing for x > -1.

The domain of the function is "all real numbers."

The range is (-infinity, 0)
