Answer:

g(x) = -5x²

(option B)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that our original graph, f(x) = x² is a parabola.

So, we can consider what happens when we adjust the function/equation of a parabola.

when we "vertically stretch" a parabola, we are increasing the value of x.

 think of it this way: the steepness of a slope is rise over run. If we rise ten, and run one, that's going be a lot more steep than if we rise 1, run 1.

Let's say our x = 5

if f(x)=x²

f(5) = 25

> y value / steepness is 25

f(x) = 3x²

f(5) = 75

 > y value / steepness is 75

So, we are looking for an equation with an increase in x present.

When a parabola has been flipped over the x-axis, we know that the original equation now includes a negative

suppose that x = 1

if y = x² ; y = 1² = 1

if y = -(x²) ; y = -(1²) ; y = -1

So, when we set x to be negative, we make our y-values end up as negative also (which makes the graph look as if it has been flipped upside-down)

This means that we are looking for a function with a negative x value.

So, we are looking for a negative x-value that is multiplied by a number >1

The graph that fits our requirements is g(x) = -5x²

hope this helps!!

The sum of 42 and x is equal to 97.45. What's the equation for the sentence?!! Help!
gogolik [260]

Answer:

X = 97.45 - 42

Step-by-step explanation:

If 42 + X = 97.45, X needs to be 97.45 - 42

you can do the same thing with smaller numbers, for example:

5 + X = 7

7 - 5= 2 and you can check for sure that this is the answer by adding them together 5 + 2= 7 so it's definitely the right answer

so for this question, 97.45- 42 = 55.45 so that's X

you can check that by 55.45 + 42 and if the answer is 97.45 that's the right answer!

I hope that makes sense
