Using proportions, Nelly's total pay for last week was of £220.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

From Monday to Friday, she worked 17 hours, hence:

For 15 hours, she was paid £8 per hour.

For the last 2 hours, she was paid £10 per hour.

On Saturday, she worked 5 hours, and was paid £16 per hour.

Hence her total payment is found as follows:

15 x 8 + 2 x 10 + 5 x 16 = £220.

Choose the correct answer for each of the following questions Find the y-intercept for following equation F(X)=-(X+1)^21- -12- -

devlian [24]

Solution

Find the y-intercept for following equation:

$f(x)=-(x+1)^2$

Using the slope equation formular:

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+c \\ f(x)=-(x+1)^2 \\ f(x)=-x^2-2x-1 \end{gathered}$

The value of y when x = 0

$\begin{gathered} f(0)=-0^2-2(0)-1 \\ y=-1 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is - 1

You graph the function f(x)=-|×|-12

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

See attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to graph $f(x)=|x|-12$ on the interval -10 to 10.

Let $g(x)=|x|$ be the parent absolute value function.

We can easily graph $f(x)=|x|-12$ , if we use translation.

When the parent function is shifted downwards by 12 units, we obtain the graph of $f(x)=|x|-12$ .

The parent function is a v-shaped graph with vertex at the origin.

We shift the parent function down so that its vertex is now at (0,-12) to get the graph of $f(x)=|x|-12$ .

See attachment for the graph of $f(x)=|x|-12$ on the specified interval.
