What we know:
12 hour period from 8pm to 8am
temperature dropped from 8°F to 16°F from 8pm to 8am

We need to find temperature at 4 am.

We can start by setting up points:
8pm is are starting point with 8°F, we can express it as (0,8), 0 represents initial time from 0 to 12 hour span.
8am is the ending point with 16°F, we can express it as (12,16), 12 represents the end time of 0 to 12 hours span.
We will use these points to find slope.
slope=m=(16-8)/(12-0)=8/12=2/3

Now, we can set up an expression to find any temperature at a specific time.  Aslo, x represents the hours not the the specific time of 4am. We will use 8 since 4am is the 8th hour of the 12 hour span. Using slope of 2/3 and the y intercept of (0,8) since we were already at 8°F at the initial time of 0 we have the function:

f(x)=2/3x+8 

f(8)=2/3(8)+8= 40/3≈13.3°

Write a series of rigid motions that transform pentagon ABCDE to pentagon A′B′C′D′E′
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

We need the following three rigid motions:

i) Reflection around y-axis, ii) Translation three units in the -y direction, iii) Translation four units in the -x direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to perform three operations on pentagon ABCDE to create pentagon A'B'C'D'E':

i) Reflection around y-axis:

(x',y') = (-x,y) (Eq. 1)

ii) Translation three units in the -y direction:

(x'',y'') = (x', y'-3) (Eq. 2)

iii) Translation four units in the -x direction:

(x''',y''') = (x''-4, y'') (Eq. 3)

We proceed to proof the effectiveness of operations defined above by testing point D:

1) D(x,y) = (-1, 4) Given.

2) (x',y') = (1,4) By (Eq. 1)

3) (x'',y'') = (1, 1) By (Eq. 2)

4) D'(x,y) = (-3,1) By (Eq. 3)/Result
