If we say:
x = the smaller numbers we want to find
y = the larger number we want to find
Then, we can formulate two equations using the information given:
x + y = 68 [1]
y - 4x = 3 [2]
Now, we can solve simultaneously:
Rearrange [1] & [2] in terms of y:
y = 68 - x [1]
y = 4x + 3 [2]
Now equate them and solve for x:
68 - x = 4x + 3
5x + 3 = 68
5x = 65
x = 13
Sub x-value into either [1] or [2]:
y = 68 - (13)
y = 55

Help please 1. Describe the transformations necessary to transform the graph of
natta225 [31]

Here are all the steps, and what they do:

STEP 1: HORIZONTAL TRANSLATION

We transform

x^2\mapsto (x-1)^2

The general transformation is

f(x)\mapsto f(x+k)

These transformations translate the graph horizontally, k units to the left if k>0, k units to the right if k<0.

In this case, k = -1, so we translate the original graph 1 unit to the right.

STEP 2: VERTICAL STRETCH

We transform

(x-1)^2\mapsto 3(x-1)^2

The general transformation is

f(x)\mapsto kf(x)

These transformations stretch the graph vertically. The graph expands if |k|>1, while it shrinks if 0<|k|<1. If k is negative, we also reflect the graph with respect to the x axis.

In this case, k = 3, so we stretch the graph vertically by a factor 3.

STEP 3: VERTICAL TRANSLATION

We transform

3(x-1)^2\mapsto 3(x-1)^2+4

The general transformation is

f(x)\mapsto f(x)+k

These transformations translate the graph vertically, k units up if k>0, k units down if k<0.

In this case, k = 4, so we translate the graph 4 units up.

So, we start from the original graph of f(x)=x^2 and we:

  • Translate it 1 unit to the right
  • Stretch it vertically by a factor 3
  • Translate it 4 units up

(the order is important!)

to get the graph of g(x)=3(x-1)^2+4

1) After a dilation, (-60, 15) is the image of (-12, 3). What are the coordinates of the image of (-2,-7) after the same dilatio
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

a) k = 5; (-10, -35)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Co-ordinates:

Pre-Image = (-12,3)

After dilation

Image = (-60,15)

The dilation about the origin can be given as :

Pre-Image(x,y)\rightarrow Image(kx,ky)

where k represents the scalar factor.

We can find value of k for the given co-ordinates by finding the ratio of x or y co-ordinates of the image and pre-image.

k=\frac{Image}{Pre-Image}

For the given co-ordinates.

Pre-Image = (-12,3)

Image = (-60,15)

The value of k=\frac{-60}{-12}=5

or k=\frac{15}{3}=5

As we get k=5 for both ratios i.e of x and  y co-ordinates, so we can say the image has been dilated by a factor of 5 about the origin.

To find the image of (-2,-7), after same dilation, we will multiply the co-ordinates with the scalar factor.

Pre-Image(-2,-7)\rightarrow Image((-2\times5),(-7\times 5))

Pre-Image(-2,-7)\rightarrow Image(-10,-35) (Answer)
