Answer: so we have 5 positions, but we only care for the first two.

So, in the first position there are 5 options (because there are 5 swimmers).

In the second position whe will have 4 options (because there are already one swimmer in the first position).

So you have 5*4 = 20 ways for the prizes to be awarded.

It would be 20, because;
1 - 2 / 3 / 4 / 5
2 - 1 / 3 / 4 / 5
3 - 1 / 2 / 4 / 5
4 - 1 / 2 / 3 /5
5 - 1 / 2 / 3 / 4

= 4x5 = 20

Use the given parent function f(x)=|x| to graph g(x)=|x+2|-4. use the ray tool and select two points to graph each ray. ​
marin [14]

Shown in the attached figure

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The absolute value function is a function that takes the shape of a V. The pattern of the absolute value function is:

f(x)=\mid x \mid

So we need to use this function in order to obtain:

g(x)=\mid x+2 \mid -4

Recall that to translate a function vertically, we use the following rule:

g(x)=f(x)+k \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ k>0 \ the \ graph \ of \ f(x) \ is \ translated \ k \ units \ up \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ k

And to translate a function horizontally, we use the following rule:

g(x)=f(x+c) \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ c>0 \ the \ graph \ of \ f(x) \ is \ translated \ c \ units \ to \ the \ left \\ \\ \bullet \ If \ c

Since:

c=2>0 \  and \ k=-4

Then:

<em>g(x) is the translation of f(x) 2 units to the left and 4 units down</em>
