Answer:
Vertical compression
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the transformation, compare the function to the parent function and check to see if there is a horizontal or vertical shift, reflection about the x-axis or y-axis, and if there is a vertical stretch.
1) Base
2) Exponent
3) Metric system
Answer:
4.75 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Before the termites: 5 pounds
After the termites: 1/4 of a pound
Amount that the termites took: x
5 - x = 1/4
Add x to both sides of the equation
5 = 1/4 + x
Subtract 1/4 from both sides of the equation
4 3/4 = x
4 3/4 = 4.75
The termites took 4.75 pounds from the log
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
k = 13The smallest zero or root is x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
you can write "x^2" to mean "x squared"
f(x) = x^2+3x-10
f(x+5) = (x+5)^2+3(x+5)-10 ... replace every x with x+5
f(x+5) = (x^2+10x+25)+3(x+5)-10
f(x+5) = x^2+10x+25+3x+15-10
f(x+5) = x^2+13x+30
Compare this with x^2+kx+30 and we see that k = 13
Factor and solve the equation below
x^2+13x+30 = 0
(x+10)(x+3) = 0
x+10 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -10 or x = -3
The smallest zero is x = -10 as its the left-most value on a number line.
To add these amounts together, we must first find their least common multiple in order to get common denominators (b/c when you add fractions, the denominators must be the same).
We'll start by listing some of their multiples.
To do this, count by whatever the denominator is:
4 1/2 (denominator is 2): 2 4 6 8 10 12 14
2 1/4 (denominator is 4): 4 8 12 16
6 1/3 (denominator is 3): 3 6 9 12 15
Look and see which is the first multiple that all three denominators have. Circle them if it helps you. In this case, it's 12.
So now we have to multiply the denominators by whatever number it takes to reach 12, and multiply by the same number to the numerator:
4 1/2 (times 6 to both top and bottom) =
4 6/12
2 1/4 (times 3) = 2 3/12
6 1/3 (times 4) = 6 4/12
Add all these fractions together, and you get 12 13/12, which is equal to 13 1/12.
Thus, Peter makes a total of 13 1/2 cups.
Hope this made sense! tell me if anything is confusing/incorrect :))
