Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
) Nth term = F + (N - 1) x D, where F=First term, N=Number of terms, D=Common difference
6th row = 23 + (6 - 1) x -3
= 23 + (5) x -3
= 23 + (-15)
= 8 - number of boxes in the top row.
b) Sum = N/2[2F + (N - 1) x D]
= 6/2[2*23 + (6 - 1) x -3]
= 3 [46 + (5) x -3 ]
= 3 [46 + -15 ]
= 3 [ 31 ]
= 93 - total number of boxes in the entire display.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
The answer is 5 units. the top is 10, and x is half of that
