To solve
if you have |a|=b, solve a=b and a=-b

|4x+12|=16
solve
4x+12=16 and 4x+12=-16
minus 12 both sides
4x=4 and 4x=-28
divide both sides by 4
x=1 and x=-7

A fountain on a lake sprays water in a parabolic arch modeled by the equation y= -0.3x^2 +3x. A beam of light modeled by the equ
Nikitich [7]

ANSWER

4.1 units to the nearest tenth.

EXPLANATION

The graph of the two functions are shown in the attachment.

The coordinates of point A is (1.6,4.1).

The coordinates of point B is (7.1,6.1)

The x-axis represents the ground level.

The distance of point A from the ground level is how far the y-coordinate of this point is from the x-axis.

Which is |4.1-0|=4.1

How much water should be added to 3 gallons of pure acid in order to obtain the 15% acid solution? HELP DUE BY TOMMOROW MORNING
Pani-rosa [81]
3 gallons of acid = 100% concentration acid
? (water+acid) gallons = 15 concentration acid

Note: Every gallon of water added reduces the percentage concentration of acid. Therefore, the relationship is inverse proportionality.

Solution:

Total number of gallons (water+acid) = (3*100)/15 = 20 gallons
Therefore, gallons of water = 20-3 = 17 gallons

The graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=2|x| over the x-axis.
Lera25 [3.4K]
Answer: Choice C) 
g(x) = -|2x|

You get this answer by simply sticking a negative out front of the original function. In other words, g(x) = -f(x) or more technically, g(x) = -1*f(x).

The negative will flip every y coordinate from positive to negative (or vice versa)

You'll also use the idea that |2x| = 2|x|. The two can be pulled out since we can say |x*y| = |x|*|y|
So |2*x| = |2|*|x| = 2|x|
