So these are basically isolating the variables.
The first equation is 3g + 5 =17.
In order to isolate the variable, we would have to get g by itself, that means 5 would have to go. In order to do this, we would do the opposite. Since it is positive 5 we would add negative 5, in order for it to disappear. This works because a positive 5 and negative 5 cancel each other out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation you have to do to the other, since we subtract 5 on one side we have to subtract 5 on the other. Therefore we would do 17-5.
Now we have 3g=12
We know that 3g is basically 3 multiplied by g. The opposite of multiplication is division.Therefore we would divide by 3 on both sides.
The answer to the first question would be g= 4.
And if you want to check if your answer is correct you plug the value in.
So
3(4) + 5 =17

Answer:
The graph of y = f(-x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the x-axis. ⇒ False
The graph of y = -f(x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the y-axis. ⇒ False
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Let us explain the reflection about the axes</em>
- If a graph is reflected about the x-axis, then the y-coordinates of all points on it will opposite in sign
Ex: if a point (2, -3) is on the graph of f(x), and f(x) is reflected about the x-axis, then the point will change to (2, 3)
- That means reflection about the x-axis change the sign of y
- y = f(x) → reflection about x-axis → y = -f(x)
- If a graph is reflected about the y-axis, then the x-coordinates of all points on it will opposite in sign
Ex: if a point (-2, -5) is on the graph of f(x), and f(x) is reflected about the y-axis, then the point will change to (2, -5)
- That means reflection about the y-axis change the sign of x
- y = f(x) → reflection about y-axis → y = f(-x)
<em>Now let us answer our question</em>
The graph of y = f(-x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the x-axis.
It is False because reflection about x-axis change sign of y
The graph of y = -f(x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the x-axis
The graph of y = -f(x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the y-axis.
It is False because reflection about y-axis change sign of x
The graph of y = f(-x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f(x) in the y-axis
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Two facts need to guide your answer.
One
The highest power is odd: you know this because an even power would start on the left come down do it's squiggles if had any and wind up on the right going up.
This graph comes down on the left does it's squiggles and then goes further down on the right. That's the behavior of something whose highest power is odd.
Two
The leading coefficient, the number in front of the highest power must be minus. If it was positive as in y = x^3 the graph would be the mirror image of what it is.
Argument
B and D cannot be true. The highest power is even.
C is false because the leading coefficient is + 1.
So that leave A which is the answer.
The graph is included with this answer
