Answer:

Let's use these two sets given to explain what is the domain.

Each value from the left set is x, and from the right is f(x).

If we plug any x from the left set in the function, we'll get f(x) that corresponds to it and that's exactly what the arrows are showing.

Domain of the function is, basically, a set of all values x can have.

In this case, it's easy to see, those are all members of the left set (-6, 1, 5, 8), but sometimes this set can have lots and lots of members, even infinity.

 x = -4
 (x, y) = (-4, 1)

2x + 1y = 7 ⇒ 2x + 1y = 7

It would be 45 cups because each number is multiplied by 5
2 x 5 = 10
3 x 5 = 15
4 x 5 = 20
9 x 5 = 45

Which transformations can be used to map a triangle with vertices A(2, 2), B(4, 1), C(4, 5) to A’(–2, –2), B’(–1, –4), C’(–5, –4

Romashka [77]

The triangles ABC and A'B'C' are shown in the diagram below. The transformation is a reflection in the line $y=-x$ . This is proved by the fact that the distance between each corner ABC to the mirror line equals to the distance between the mirror line to A'B'C'.

Which zero pair could be added to the function f(x)=x2+12x+6 so that the function can be written in vertex form?

alex41 [277]

Find the vertex.

x=b/-2a

12/-2(1)
x=-6

then plug into equation

-6^2+12(-6)+6

36-72+6=-30

(-6,-30)

The fifth graders are planning a pizza party. Each fifth grader will eat two slices of pizza with a favorite topping. One-half o

icang [17]

32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.

Let x be the total number of students.

1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.

We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x

We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x

Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x

Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x

Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x
