Answer:
The length is 2.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Before we find the value of the length of the side, we need the measure of the coordinates after dilation
B’ = 1/2 B = 1/2(3,2) = (1.5, 1)
C’ = 1/2 C = 1/2( 0,-2) = (0,-1)
The measure of the length is the distance between the two points
Mathematically, that would be;
D = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2
D = √(0-1.5)^2 + (-1-1)^2
D = √(2.25 + 4)
D = √6.25
D = 2.5 units
It’s C. Since that’s the middle based on the diagram
Answer: the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.
Explanation:
1) The function f(x) = 3x² + 12x + 16 is a parabola.
The vertex of the parabola is the minimum or maximum on the parabola.
If the parabola open down then the vertex is a maximum, and if the parabola open upward the vertex is a minimum.
The sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term tells whether the parabola opens upward or downward.
When such coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upward (so it has a minimum); when the coefficient is negative the parabola opens downward (so it has a maximum).
Here the coefficient is positive (3), which tells that the vertex of the parabola is a miimum.
Then, finding the minimum value of the function is done by finding the vertex.
I will change the form of the function to the vertex form by completing squares:
Given: 3x² + 12x + 16
Group: (3x² + 12x) + 16
Common factor: 3 [x² + 4x ] + 16
Complete squares: 3[ ( x² + 4x + 4) - 4] + 16
Factor the trinomial: 3 [(x + 2)² - 4] + 16
Distributive property: 3 (x + 2)² - 12 + 16
Combine like terms: 3 (x + 2)² + 4
That is the vertex form: A(x - h)² + k, whch means that the vertex is (h,k) = (-2, 4).
Then the minimum value is 4 (when x = - 2).
2) The othe function is <span>g(x)= 2 *sin(x-pi)
</span>
The sine function goes from -1 to + 1, so the minimum value of sin(x - pi) is - 1.
When you multiply by 2, you just increased the amplitude of the function and obtain the new minimum value is 2 (-1) = - 2
Comparing the two minima, you have 4 vs - 2, and so the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.
A) 60 Clown fish / 5 = 12
12 x 4 = 28 Angel fish
B) 28 Angel fish / 4 = 12
12 x 3 = 36 Gold fish
C) Add all fish 28 Angel fish + 36 Gold fish + 60 Clown fish = 124 Fish in total
