Why is 5x4 greater than 5x1/4

Mathematics

Ahat [919]3 years ago

Anytime you multiply a whole number by a fraction or decimal, you have to make the fraction and decimal increase its value. So 1/4 can be translated into .25 and 5 x .25 is 1.25. 5 x 4 is 20. Since 5 and 4 are both whole numbers, the answer is increased by both.

Which function represents the graph of f(x)=|2x| after it is translated 5 units to the left?
Mashutka [201]
As you need to translate to the left this is an horizontal translation so you have to replace f(x) by f(x-h) and when h is less than 0 the graph shifts left, it mean h is negative. So for this problem g(x)= Ι2(x--5)Ι  then g(x) = Ι2(x+5)Ι
