Alex says that the function f(x) = (3x)2 represents a vertical stretch of the quadratic parent function by a factor of 3. Marta

says that it represents a horizontal compression by a factor of 1/3 . Decide whether one student is correct, both are correct, or neither is correct

Our parent function is f(x)=x^2. A vertical stretch by a factor of k means that every point (x,f(x)), has been transformed into (x,kf(x)). Alex is clearly incorrect as our parent function has been transformed to (x,9f(x)), not (x,3f(x)). A horizontal stretch(or compression) by a factor of k means our function has been transformed to (x/k,f(x)). Here, Marta is saying our function should look like (3x,f(x)). This can also be achieved by plugging 3x into the parent function, which would give us f(3x)=(3x)^2, so it seems that Marta is the correct one.

Last years sales at the drive in movie theater totol 144.600. This year's sales should increase by 1/3. how much should sales in
KATRIN_1 [288]
A] Given that the last years's sales was $144,600 and this years sales should increase by 1/3. Then:
i] Amount the sales should increased by will be:
(last year's sales)*(increase)
=144,600*(1/3)
=48,200

ii] The sales in the new year will be:
(last year's sales)+(increase)
=144600+48600
=$192, 800

2] Given that the sales of hifi which included 6% tax was 205,000. The actual sales was:
Actual percentage sales=100%
percentage sales after taxation=100-6=94%
thus the  actual sales was:
(100)/(94)*205,000
=218, 085.1064

3]Given that the rate per $100 is $0.83, and the insurance was for 90000, the insurance premium will be:
(total insurance) *(unit rate)/(number of units)
plugging the values we obtain:
90000*0.83/100
$747

Hint: You won't flip the sign in every problem. ONLY FUP it when you or by a 9 - 2x < 6x - 15 Solutions You solve and graph t
svetoff [14.1K]

You only flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number.

================================================

Problem 1

3 - 8x \ge -29\\\\-8x \ge -29-3\\\\-8x \ge -32\\\\x \le \frac{-32}{-8} \ \text{ inequality sign flip}\\\\x \le 4

The inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by -8.

The graph will have a closed circle at 4 with shading to the left.

Three solutions are x = 0, x = 1, x = 2. You can pick any three numbers you want as long as they are 4 or smaller.

================================================

Problem 2

1x+2x-7 < 6\\\\3x-7 < 6\\\\3x < 6+7\\\\3x < 13\\\\x < \frac{13}{3}\\\\x < 4 \frac{1}{3}

The graph will have an open circle at 13/3 = 4&1/3 = 4.333 approx. The shading is to the left. No inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by a positive number.

Your choice of three solutions is correct. You can pick anything smaller than 4.3333

================================================

Problem 3

9-2x \le 6x-15\\\\-2x-6x \le -15-9\\\\-8x \le -24\\\\x \ge \frac{-24}{-8} \ \text{ inequality sign flip}\\\\x \ge 3

The solution set is any value 3 or larger. Three solutions are x = 5, x = 6 and x = 7.

The graph has a closed circle at 3 on the number line. The shading is to the right.
