Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The - 42 is going to give trouble.

Two minus signs multiplied together give a plus. In fact any number of even minus signs (2,4,6,8, 1000) multiplied together make a plus.

(-16) + 42 = 26

A piece of wood is cut into 3 pieces in the ratio 5:4:3 if the length of the shortest piece is 2 how long is the wood
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5:4:3 = x:y:2

4:3 = y:2                 Cross multiply

3y = 8                     Divide by 3

y = 8/3 = 2.66'

5/x = 3/2

3x = 10                   Divide by 3

x = 10/3

x = 3.33

Length of the wood = 2.66 + 3.33 + 2

Length of the wood = 8 feet

Help in your answer!​
mart [117]

Answer:

Two different transformations happen. Rotation/Reflection and translation (I say rotation/reflection because they can both put the parabola where it is after being transformed)

(Rotation- 180 degrees)

(Reflection across its it's starting point)

Translation- pushed up 4 points from negative 4 to 0 on the y-axis

When you put the parent function into a graph it is positive so the u is opening upward and starts at -4. Both sides of the u go through the points (0,0)and (4,0).

But in the transformed function is negative so the u opens downward. The sides going through the points (0,-4) and (4,-4)

I hope this makes sense
