Answer:

In every equation, both sides equal the same thing; it always ends with both sides adding up to be equal. In a balance scale, both sides are also equal.

The graph of the parent function f(x) = x3 is translated to form the graph of g(x) = (x – 1)3 + 2. Which is the graph of g(x), t

Ivahew [28]

Please, Moody, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:

f(x) = x^3 and g(x) = <span>(x – 1)^3 + 2

Once you have drawn the graph of f(x) = x^3, you get the graph of g(x) by translating the entire graph of f(x) one unit to the right and then translating the result graph 2 units UP.</span>

kicyunya [14]

Answer: 5 cookies and 6 brownies.

Step-by-step explanation: If she decides to buy 5 cookies it will cost her $2.50. This means she can still spend $12.50. If we need to find how many brownies she can buy, the expression 12.50/2.25 can explain. In this case, she can buy 5 brownies and will have $1.25 left over

Under her cell phone plan, Janelys pays a flat cost of $46.50 per month and $5 per gigabyte. She wants to keep her bill under $7

allsm [11]

Answer:

Less than 4.70 GB

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = # of GB that Janelys uses that month. Since Janelys wants to pay less than $70 given that the flat rate for subscribing to that company's data per month is $46.50 and each GB costs $5 to use, the inequality can be written as:

5x + 46.50 < 70

5x < 23.50 Subtract $45.60 from each side.

x < 4.70 GB Divide 5 from each side.

Thus, (if it is whole numbers) Janelys can use 4 GB while staying within her budget or (if decimals are fine) anything less than 4.70 GB. Hope this helped! :D
