Hello!

The problem has asked that we simplify the given expression using the Distributive Property. The Distributive Property states the following:

a(b + c) = ab + ac
a(b – c) = ab – ac

In this case, we’ll use the second of the two formulas listed above. Let’s begin by inserting any known values given in the original problem:

a(b – c) = ab – ac
5(2x – 5) = 5(2x) – 5(5)

Now simplify the right side of the equation:

5(2x) – 5(5) = 10x – 25

We have now proven that 5(2x – 5) is equal to 10x – 25. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

I hope this helps!

Solve by using square roots. 6x^2−27=39

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Simplifying

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6x + -27 = 39

Reorder the terms:

-27 + 6x = 39

Solving

-27 + 6x = 39

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '27' to each side of the equation.

-27 + 27 + 6x = 39 + 27

Combine like terms: -27 + 27 = 0

0 + 6x = 39 + 27

6x = 39 + 27

Combine like terms: 39 + 27 = 66

6x = 66

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 11

x = 11

NO LINKS!!! What is the transformation f(x)= x^3:

Mama L [17]

Answer:

4. Horizontal shrink by a factor of ¹/₅

5. Left 5, Up 5

6. Right 5, Down 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformations of Graphs (functions) is the process by which a function is moved or resized to produce a variation of the original (parent) function.

Transformations

For a > 0

$f(x+a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units left}$

$f(x-a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units right}$

$f(x)+a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units up}$

$f(x)-a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units down}$

$y=a\:f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the y-axis (vertically) by a factor of}\:a$

$y=f(ax) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{a}$

$y=-f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: x \textsf{-axis}$

$y=f(-x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: y \textsf{-axis}$

Identify the transformations that take the parent function to the given function.

Question 4

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(5x)^3$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that the x-value of the parent function has been multiplied by 5.

Therefore, the transformation is:

$y=f(5x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{5}$

As a > 1, the transformation visually is a compression in the x-direction, so we can also say: Horizontal shrink by a factor of ¹/₅

Question 5

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x+5)^3+5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been added to the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x+5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units left}$

Step 2

5 has then been added to function.

$f(x+5)+5 \implies f(x+5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units up}$

Transformation: Left 5, Up 5

Question 6

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x-5)^3-5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been subtracted from the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x-5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units right}$

Step 2

5 has then been subtracted from function.

$f(x-5)-5 \implies f(x-5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units down}$

Transformation: Right 5, Down 5
