Step-by-step explanation: To shift the graphs up and down on the coordinate system, you need to manipulate or change the y-intercepts.
The y-intercept is just the constant term in the equation.
As long as the slopes remain the same, the graphs can be
translated up or down by changing the constant value.
Take a look at these lines graphed below.
Notice that y = x + 11 is the same as y = x + 4 but
y = x + 11 is translated 7 units down to get y = x + 4.
All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.
2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30
3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents
4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.
It takes 6 seconds for it to hit the ground.
0 = -5x²+20x+60
We can solve this by factoring. First factor out the GCF, -5:
0 = -5(x²-4x-12)
Now we want factors of -12 that sum to -4. -6(2) = -12 an -6+2 = -4:
0 = -5(x-6)(x+2)
Using the zero product property, we know that either x-6=0 or x+2=0; this gives us the answers x=6 or x=-2. Since we cannot have negative time, x=6.
The variable “x” can be defined as the price of regular gas.
The equation is x = x - (.02)7
x = x - (.02)7
(.02)7 = .14
x = x - .14
X - X = nothing so it just leaves you with -.14
The answer is that the gas price changed by a total of - 14 cents or -0.14
B would be your best answer looking at the graphic chart
