Answer:
Given the parent function: 
Rule for Horizontal Stretches and Compression:
If parent function y=f(x), then y=f(cx) gives a horizontal stretch when c >1 and
a horizontal compression when 0<c<1.
therefore, by above definition
the function f(x) =
is a Horizontal compression by a factor of
therefore, the function f(x) =
is HORIZONTAL COMPRESSION of the parent function by a factor of 0.25
To figure out the answer here, all you have to do is plug the given point into your equations and see if the result is true:
(4, 2) .... aka (x, y)
2 - 4 = 2
-2 = 2 ... this one is FALSE, as -2 doesn't equal 2, so already you can tell that the point won't be a solution, but still, check the second equation.
-3(4) - 2(2) = -8
-12 - 4 = -8
-16 = -8 .... this one is also false. (4, 2) is not a solution for this system of equations.
Answer: what answer do you want?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Lyle and Kyle shot 18 baskets each.
Cliff shot 6 baskets.
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure this out, you have to play around with how many shots Cliff made. You can just plug in reasonable numbers until Lyle and Kyle's baskets match.
If Lyle has to shoot 3 times more than Cliff, you multiply 6 x 3 to get 18.
If Kyle shoots 12 more than Cliff, you add 6 + 12 to get 18.
You know you did it right because in the problem it says Lyle's and Kyle's number of shots are equal.
