Can a triangle with the side lengths of 8, 4, and 12cm

Let f(x)= lxl-3 Write a function g whose graph is a translation 5 units down of the graph of f.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

If the function "f(x) = lxl-3" were translated five units down the graph, g(x) would be lxl-8.

We must be familiar with function transformation and different forms of transformation in order to properly understand the question. When a function is transformed, the graph's curve either "moves to the left/right/up/down," "expands or compresses," or "reflects" to create a new function. For instance, by simply pushing the graph of the function g(x) = x2 up by 7 units, the graph of the function f(x) = x2 + 7 is generated. It is advantageous to convert a function since it saves us from having to create a new function from begin. Function transformations typically fall into one of three categories: 1. 2nd translation 3. dilation Reflection

The given query is about Translation of Function. To create a new function, translation moves the curve up or down and modifies its position. Translation comes in two flavours. Vertical and horizontal translation.

When the curve changes, "the function" shifts upward or downward. By doing this, a function of the form y = f(x) is transformed into f(x) ± k, where k stands for the vertical translation. In this case, the function moves up by k units if k > 0.

The function goes down by 'k' units if k < 0.

The curve in the given problem goes down by 5 units, so k = 5. Which is a vertical translation scenario. Consequently, y = f(x) becomes f(x) - k = g(x) and g(x) = f(x) - k = lxl-3 -5 = lxl - 8.

Therefore the new function after translation is g(x) = lxl - 8.

a person is standing on top of a smaller building looking across the street at a taller building, which is 260 feet away horizon

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The height of the smaller building is 94.63 feet, computed using the trigonometric ratios.

In the question, we take AB to be the taller building, where A is its top and B is its base, CD to be the shorter building, where C is its top and D is its base, and CE to be the perpendicular from C to AB.

Given that the horizontal distance between the two buildings is 260 feet, we can say that BC = CE = 260 feet.

The angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building is 30°, that is, ∠ECA = 30°.

The angle of depression from the top of the shorter building to the base of the taller building is 20°, that is, ∠ECB = 20°.

When ∠ECB = 20°, then ∠CBD = 20°, as they are alternate angles.

We are asked to find the height of the shorter building, that is, we are asked to find CD.

In ΔCBD,

tan ∠CBD = CD/BD {perpendicular/base},

or, tan 20° = CD/260,

or, CD = 260*tan 20° = 260*0.36397023426 {∵ tan 20° = 0.36397023426},

or, CD = 94.6322609092.

Therefore, the height of the smaller building is 94.63 feet, computed using the trigonometric ratios.

Sari is teaching her best friend how to factor trinomials with a leading coefficient greater than 1. She starts with the trinomi

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

See explanation

$2x^2+5x+3=(x+1)(2x+3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as

$2x^2+5x+3$

2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.

In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.

3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:

$2\cdot 3=6$

4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:

$6=1\cdot 6\\ \\ \bf{6=2\cdot 3}$

5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:

$2+3=5$

6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:

$2x^2+5x+3=2x^2+2x+3x+3$

7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:

$2x^2 +2x+3x+3=(2x^2+2x)+(3x+3)=2x(x+1)+3(x+1)=(x+1)(2x+3)$

Next number 3 6 4 8 6 12 10

solniwko [45]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

This sequence follows a pattern of doubling then subtracting by two. The last action was 12 to 10, which is subtracting by two, so the next must be multiplying by 2.
