Answer:

(6-u)/(6-7)= (6-u)/-1= 8

6 - u = -8

-u = -14

u = 14

Answer:u = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

From the information given,

Slope = - 8

y2 = 6

y1 = u

x2 = 6

x1 = 7

Therefore,

- 8 = (6 - u)/(6 - 7)

- 8 = (6 - u)/ - 1

6 - u = 8

u = 6 - 8 = - 2

-3f is the temperature at 9am because -12f is colder than -3f

The transformation from 1 to 2 is a translation, as the shape is moved from one point to another with no rotation, reflection, or change in size.

The transformation from 2 to 3 is a reflection, as the shape is now upside down. It is still the same distance from the y-axis.

The answer is D. translation, then reflection.

Choose the inequality that represents the following graph.HELP HELP HELP
Wewaii [24]

Solution:

<u>It should be noted:</u>

  • If the starting point of the inequality is half shaded, the sign will be < or >.
  • If the starting point of the inequality is fully shaded, the sign will be ≤ or ≥.

<u>We can tell that:</u>

  • The inequality will either have an < or > sign.
  • The blue line tells us that the value of x must be greater than -1.

This clearly tells us that the inequality is x > -1

<u>In conclusion:</u>

Option C is correct.
