<span>The y-intercept of  is  .
Of course, it is 3 less than  , the y-intercept of  .
Subtracting 3 does not change either the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing, or the end behavior. It just translates the graph 3 units down.
It does not matter is the function is odd or even.

First of all, let's review the definition of some concepts.


Even and odd functions:


A function is said to be even if its graph is <em>symmetric with respect to the</em> y-axis, that is:


y=f(x) \ is \ \mathbf{even} \ if, \ for \ each \ x \ in \ the \ domain \ of \ f, \\ f(-x)=f(x)


On the other hand, a function is said to be odd if its graph is <em>symmetric with respect to the origin</em>, that is:


y=f(x) \ is \ \mathbf{odd} \ if, \ for \ each \ x \ in \ the \ domain \ of \ f, \\ f(-x)=-f(x)


Analyzing each question for each type of functions using examples of polynomial functions. Thus:



FOR EVEN FUNCTIONS:


1. When f(x) becomes f(x)-3 


1.1 Effects on the y-intercept


We need to find out the effects on the y-intercept when shifting the function f(x) into:


f(x)-3


We know that the graph f(x) intersects the y-axis when x=0, therefore:


y=f(0) \ is \ the \ y-intercept \ of \ f


So:


y=f(0)-3 \ is \ the \ new \ y-intercept


So the y-intercept of f(x)-3 is three units less than the y-intercept of f(x)


1.2. Effects on the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing


Given that you are shifting the graph downward on the y-axis, there is no any effect on the intervals of the domain. The function f(x)-3 increases and decreases in the same intervals of f(x)


1.3 The end behavior when the following changes are made.


The function is shifted three units downward, so each point of f(x)-3 has the same x-coordinate but the output is three units less than the output of f(x). Thus, each point will be sketched as:



For \ y=f(x): \\ P(x_{0},f(x_{0})) \\ \\ For \ y=f(x)-3: \\ P(x_{0},f(x_{0})-3)



FOR ODD FUNCTIONS:


2. When f(x) becomes f(x)-3 


2.1 Effects on the y-intercept 


In this case happens the same as in the previous case. The new y-intercept is three units less. So the graph is shifted three units downward again.


An example is shown in Figure 1. The graph in blue is the function:


y=f(x)=x^3-x


and the function in red is:


y=f(x)-3=x^3-x-3


This function is odd, so you can see that:


y-intercept \ of \ f(x)=0 \\ y-intercept \ of \ f(x)-3=-3


2.2. Effects on the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing


The effects are the same just as in the previous case. So the new function increases and decreases in the same intervals of f(x)


In Figure 1 you can see that both functions increase and decrease at the same intervals.


2.3 The end behavior when the following changes are made.


It happens the same, the output is three units less than the output of f(x). So, you can write the points just as they were written before. 


So you can realize this concept by taking a point with the same x-coordinate of both graphs in Figure 1.


FOR EVEN FUNCTIONS:


3. When f(x) becomes -2.f(x) 


3.1 Effects on the y-intercept 


As we know the graph f(x) intersects the y-axis when x=0, therefore:


y=f(0) \ is \ the \ y-intercept \ again


And:


y=-2f(0) \ is \ the \ new \ y-intercept


So the new y-intercept is the negative of the previous intercept multiplied by 2.


3.2. Effects on the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing


In the intervals when the function f(x) increases, the function -2f(x) decreases. On the other hand, in the intervals when the function f(x) decreases, the function -2f(x) increases. 


3.3 The end behavior when the following changes are made.


Each point of the function -2f(x) has the same x-coordinate just as the function f(x) and the y-coordinate is the negative of the previous coordinate multiplied by 2, that is:


For \ y=f(x): \\ P(x_{0},f(x_{0})) \\ \\ For \ y=-2f(x): \\ P(x_{0},-2f(x_{0}))



FOR ODD FUNCTIONS:


4. When f(x) becomes -2f(x) 


See example in Figure 2


y=f(x)=x^3-x


and the function in red is:


y=-2f(x)=-2(x^3-x)


4.1 Effects on the y-intercept 


In this case happens the same as in the previous case. The new y-intercept is the negative of the previous intercept multiplied by 2.


4.2. Effects on the regions where the graph is increasing and decreasing


In this case it happens the same. So in the intervals when the function f(x) increases, the function -2f(x) decreases. On the other hand, in the intervals when the function f(x) decreases, the function -2f(x) increases. 


4.3 The end behavior when the following changes are made.


Similarly, each point of the function -2f(x) has the same x-coordinate just as the function f(x) and the y-coordinate is the negative of the previous coordinate multiplied by 2.

Solve the word problem. Round your final result to the nearest hundredth.
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

1)Area of circle: 64\pi

2)Area of semicircles: 128\pi

3)Area of quarter-circles: 128\pi

4)Total area of pattern: 320\pi

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 8cm

Given: 1 circle, 4 semicircles, and 8 quarter-circles.

Area of a circle: \pi r^{2}

1) A = \pi r^{2} where r = 8

A = 64\pi

2) 4 semicircles = 2 circles

so the answer is 2*A = 128\pi

3) 8 quarter-circles = 2 circles

Therefore, the answer here is the same as the answer for #2!

4)There are 5 circles total because:

1 circle = 1 circle

4 semicircles divided by 2 = 2 circles (because \frac{1}{2} times 4)

8 quarter-circles divided by 4 (think about what "quarter" means) = 2 circles

So ... 1 + 2 + 2 = 5 circles

Now we need to find the area of 5 circles which is just 5*A

5*A = 320\pi

A prize fund is setup with a single investment of £4000 to provide an annual prize of £150. The fund accrues interest at 5% p.A.
Verdich [7]

The invested amount, A=£4000

Rate of interest on this amount, r=5% per annum.

Total interest on the amount £4000 after 1 year

= 5\% \;\text{of} \;\£ 4000=0.05\times \£4000=\£200.

The total amount after 1 year, P=£4000+£200=£4200

Amount remains after an annual prize of £150=£4200-£150=£4050.

Note that after providing the annual prize the amount remains is £4050 which is more than the invested amount of £4000 as the prize money is less than the interest gained.

Now, for the 2nd year, the 5% interest is on the principal amount of £4050, which will have more interest as compared to the interest of 1st year.

Again, after prize distribution, the total amount remains for the principal amount of 3rd year will be more than the principal amount of 2nd year. This sequence repeated every year and the total amount will increase every year.

So, it will never end, the full prize money can be awarded for infinitely many years.

I need help with math
Nata [24]

Answer:

Question 13. I believe is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

take your area of the face you are given aka your 7 5/6 and multiply it by six since there are six faces.

You can convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

     7 \frac{5}{6}  = denominator times the whole number ( 6x7)= then add the numerator    (42+5)=\frac{47}{6}

Then multiply by six to get your answer

I'm not completely sure about question number fourteen so I am not answering it.

Anyone help please!!!!
Andre45 [30]
We are to verify the identity:

cos(α-B)-cos(α+B) = 2 sinα sinβ

Left hand side = cos(α - B)-cos(α + B) 

= cosα cosβ + sinα sinB - (cosα cosB - sinα sinβ)

= cosα cosβ + sinα sinB - cosα cosB + sinα sinβ)

= sinα sinβ + sinα sinβ

= 2 sinα sinβ

= Right Hand side
