For the function f defined by f(x)=5x−12 find f(−x),−f(x), and −f(−x).

1 answer:

3 0

$f(x) = 5x-12$

$f(-x) = 5(-x)-12 = -5x-12$

$-f(x) = -(5x-12) = -5x+12$

$-f(-x) = -(5(-x)-12) = -(-5x-12) = 5x+12$

This is probably asking you to consider the symmetry of f(x). If f(x) is equal to f(-x), then f is symmetric about the origin. If f(x) is equal to -f(x), then f is symmetric about the y-axis.

The function h=-16t^2 +1700 gives you the height h, of an object in feet, at t seconds. How long will it take the object to hit

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The object will hit the ground after 10.308 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -16t² + 1700

If you graphed this function, the object would be shown hitting the ground when it crosses the x-axis, in other words, when h = 0. So, to find the answer, just set h(t) equal to 0 and solve.

-16t² + 1700 = 0 Plug this into a calculator if you have one.

t = -10.308 and t = 10.308

Since time can't be negative, your answer will be the positive value, 10.308.

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-1, 4) and is perpendicular to the

statuscvo [17]

For perpendicular lines, m2 = -1/m1; where m1 is the slope of line 1 and m2 is the slope of line 2.
m1 = (-4 - 2)/(4 - 2) = -6/2 = -3
m2 = -1/-3 = 1/3
Equation of the required line is given by: y - 4 = 1/3 (x - (-1))
y - 4 = 1/3 x + 1/3
y = 1/3 x + 1/3 + 4
y = 1/3 x + 13/3

Answer:

I think the answer is $56,600

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm pretty sure you're just going to add $63,000+$8,400+$2,900+$1,1000. Then when you get a total of $75,400 and then I think you are going to subtract $15,400 from $75,400, you should get $60,000 then subtract $3,400 and you get $56,600.
