<u>Answer:</u>
The vertical axis should begin with 0 inches.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The vertical axis must start with 0 inches to ensure accuracy for the measures of every plant since 28% of the plants in the garden are under 6 inches.
If the vertical axis begins with 6 inches or above, we can miss a lot of the gardener's data, especially the plants which are under 6 inches.
Therefore, to ensure that the graph does not mislead any measures of the plant, the vertical axis must begin with 0 inches.
Answer:
Isosceles trapezoid
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure will look like one large triangle on the outside and four smaller triangles on the inside. you are only concerned with the inside triangle that is pointing to the line FH. Since XY and FH are parallel and the distance between FX and YH are equivalent (the midpoints of each side should be the same for all three sides of the larger triangle) the shape FXYH is an isosceles trapezoid.
2x2-5x-18=0
Two solutions were found :
x = -2
x = 9/2 = 4.500
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(2x2 - 5x) - 18 = 0
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 2x2-5x-18
The first term is, 2x2 its coefficient is 2 .
The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -18
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • -18 = -36
Step-2 : Find two factors of -36 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-36 + 1 = -35
-18 + 2 = -16
-12 + 3 = -9
-9 + 4 = -5 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -9 and 4
2x2 - 9x + 4x - 18
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (2x-9)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
2 • (2x-9)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x+2) • (2x-9)
Which is the desired factorization
Equation at the end of step 2 :
(2x - 9) • (x + 2) = 0
Step 3 :
Theory - Roots of a product :
3.1 A product of several terms equals zero.
When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.
We shall now solve each term = 0 separately
In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product
Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.
ANSWER
P'(6,-1)
EXPLANATION
The mapping for a reflection in the line y=x is
The line y=x is the mirror line for a function and it's inverse.
The x and y coordinates swap position.
The reflection of point P(−1, 6) across the line y = x is
P'(6,-1)
