No. A number DECREASED by 5 IS 32. That means you ADD 5. So the correct answer is 37.

I believe they want you to write an equation...

"a number" = x
"decreased by 5" = -5
"is less than 32" = <32

x - 5 < 32

That is the equation.

If you solve it...

x < 32+ 5
x < 37

x can be any number less than 37 to keep the equation true.

What is the perimeter of A ABC?

Advocard [28]

Answer: 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula,

$AC=\sqrt{(-3-1)^2 + (-1-2)^2}}=5\\\\AB=\sqrt{(-3-0)^2 +(-1-3)^2}=5\\\\BC=\sqrt{(1-0)^2 + (2-3)^2}=\sqrt{2} \approx 1.4\\\\\implies P \approx 5+5+1.4=\boxed{11.4}$

Which is one of the transformations applied to the graph of f(x)=x^2 to change it into the graph of g(x)=4x^2+24x*30?

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Changing g(x) to this form: a(x-h) + k, we have:

g(x) = 4 (x+3)^2 - 6

Comparing this to the original equation, f(x) = x^2, we have the following transformations:

The graph is widened.

The graph is shifted left 3 units.

A hovercraft takes off from a platform.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

81 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height (in meters), h(x) of a hovercraft x seconds after takeoff, is modeled by:

$h(x)=-3(x-3)^2+108$

We are to determine its height at the time of takeoff.

Now, at the time of takeoff, x=0.

We substitute x=0 to solve for h.

$h(0)=-3(0-3)^2+108\\=-3(-3)^2+108\\=-3(9)+108\\=-27+108\\=81$ meters$

The height of the hovercraft at takeoff is 81 meters.
