Answers

Answer: a) y = f(x - 6)

              b) y = f(x) - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For transformations we use the following formula: y = a f(x - h) + k

a = vertical stretchh = horizontal shift (positive = right, negative = left)k = vertical stretch (positive = up, negative = down)

a) f(x) has a vertex at (-1, 1)

    M has a vertex at (5, 1)

    The vertex shifted 6 units to the right  → h = +6

Input h = +6 into the equation and disregard "a" and "k" since those didn't change.     ⇒ y = f(x - 6)

b) f(x) has a vertex at (-1, 1)

    N has a vertex at (-1, -1)

    The vertex shifted down 2 units  → k = -2

Input k = -2 into the equation and disregard "a" and "h" since those didn't change.     ⇒ y = f(x) - 2

9) Here are the possibilities of the cards you could pick

KQ, KJ, K10, QJ, Q10, J10

Since there are 6 possibilities and only 3 of them have one face card, the probability is 3/6, or 1/2.

10) It doesn’t matter which card you pick first.  The second card has a 1 in 3 chance of being the same card (whatever it is).  That means you have a 2 in 3 chance of it NOT being the same card.  So the probability is 2/3.

For three consecutive numbers, the sum of the first number, twice the second, and 7
less than the third is 133. What are the three numbers?​

Answers

Answer:

a = 34

b = 34

c = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

a ; b ; c = consecutive numbers =>

b = a + 1

c = a + 2

a + 2b + c - 7 = 133

a + 2(a + 1) + (a + 2) - 7 = 133

a + 2a + 2 + a + 2 - 7 = 133

4a = 133 + 7 - 4

4a = 136

a = 34

b = 34

c = 36

Which of the following are roots of the polynomial function? Check all that apply f(x) = x^3 + 3x^2 - 9x + 5

Answers

Answer:

x = 1 or x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x^3 + 3 x^2 - 9 x + 5 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(x - 1)^2 (x + 5) = 0

Split into two equations:

(x - 1)^2 = 0 or x + 5 = 0

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 1 = 0 or x + 5 = 0

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 or x + 5 = 0

Subtract 5 from both sides:

b. 3x +4
c. 6x + 8
d. 8x + 8 - 2x

Answers

Hey there!

Answer:

B. 3x + 4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

Perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2l + 2w

Given:

P = 8x + 8

w = x.

Plug the given information into the equation:

8x + 8 = 2l + 2x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

6x + 8 = 2l

Divide both sides by 2:

(6x + 8)/2 = 2l/2

3x + 4 = l.

Therefore, the length of the garden is:

l = 3x + 4 ft.

That answer is b.) 3x +4

50 people took a driving test. 18 of the 50 people are women. One quarter of the men failed the driving test. The number of men who passed the driving test was 8 more than the number of women who passed the test. A person is chosen at random. What is the probability that they passed the driving test? Write your answer as a decimal.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of people who took the test = 50

No. of women who took the test = 18

Therefore, no. of men who took the test = 50 - 18 = 32

No. of men who did not pass the test = 1/4 × 32 = 8

No. of men who passed = 32 - 8 =24

The no. of men who passed is 8 more than the no. of women who passed Therefore, the no. of women who passed = 24 - 8 = 16

No. of women who failed = 18 - 16 = 2

Total no. of people who passed = 24 + 16 = 40

Total no. of people that didnt pass = 2 + 8 = 10

Therefore probability that they passed = 50/40 = 1.25

Hope this help : ) . Have a nice day !

Answer:  The probability is  0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total who took the test = 50

Women who took the test = 18

50 - 18 = 32  is the number of men

32/4 = 8    men who did not pass

Men who passed = 32 - 8 =24

To find the number of women who passed :  24 - 8 = 16

Total  of people who passed = 24 + 16 = 40

Number who passed out of total people  = 40/50   Converted ro decimal: 0.8

So the probability of randomly selecting a person who passed is 0.8

y − x = 6

y + x = −10

1.(−2, −8)
2.(−8, −2)
3.(6, −10)
4.(−10, 6)

Answers

Answer:

(-8, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine these equations:  You'll get 2y = -4, so that y = -2.

Substituting -2 for y in the second equation, you'll get -2 + x = -10, or x = -8

Thus the solution is (-8, -2)


x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100
What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

Answers

Answer:

(10, 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system let's use substitution:

Solve the first equation for x, obtaining x = 24 - y, and then substitute 24 - y for x in the second equation:

3(24 - y) + 5y = 100

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:

72 - 3y + 5y = 100

Combining like terms results in 72 - 100 = -2y, or -28 = -2y

Thus, y must be 14.

If y = 14, then the first equation tells us that x = 10.

Check:  Is this true?  3(10) + 5(14) = 100  YES

The solution is (10, 14).

BRAINLY: Ken is working this summer as part of a crew on a
farm. He earned $8 per hour for the first 10 hours he
worked this week. Because of his performance, his
crew leader raised his salary to $10 per hour for the
rest of the week. Ken saves 90% of his earnings from
each week. What is the least number of hours he
must work the rest of the week to save at least $270 for the week? Please show how you got your answer

Answers

Answer:

22 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ken saves 90% of his earnings.

So, he must earn

270/x =90/100

90x=270*100

90x=27,000

x=27000/90

=300

x=$300 to save $270

For starting 10hours, Ken earns $8 per hour so he earns total

$8*10 hours=$80

Now, Ken has to earn remaining

$220 at a rate of $10/hour, he must work for at least

$220/$10

=22hours

Using the equation y = 2x + 5 , what would the input need to be for an output of -45?

a. -20

b. -25

c. -85

d. -95

Answers

Answer:

-25

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, y is your output and x is your input.

Here's your base equation: y = 2x + 5

Knowing the information above, let's plug it in:

-45 = 2x + 5

(Subtract 5 from both sides)

-50 = 2x

(Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x)

-25 = x

And there you go.

Answer:

input is -25

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 5

The output is -45 which is y

-45 = 2x + 5

Subtract 5 from each side

-45-5 = 2x

-50 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

-50/2 = 2x/2

-25 = x

To answer this question we should analyze both functions :

the intercepts with the x-axis are the numbers when a function f(x)=0

here we must solve both equations :

x²=0x²+2=0

the first one is obvious x=0 the scond is more interesting :

x²+2=0⇔x²=-2 wich is impossible since x²≥0 unless we use complex numbers .

So we notice thatf has one intercept.

we added 2 to f to get g but no real intercepts
