An egg that has been falling for x seconds has dropped at an average speed of 16x feet per second. If the egg is dropped from th

e top of a building, its total distance traveled is the product of the average rate times the time. Write a simplified expression to show the distance the egg has traveled after x seconds

$average \: rate \: of \: fall = 16x \: feet \: per \: second \\ duration \: of \: fall \: (time) = x \: seconds \\ distance \: of \: fall = 16x \: feet \: per \: second \times x \: seconds \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: =x(16x) \: feet \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 16 {x}^{2} \: feet \\ \: the \: egg \: traveled \: 16 {x}^{2} \: feet \: in \: x \: seconds.$

Two sides of a triangle are 12 and 15. Which inequality represents the solution to finding x, the third side.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

the other side would be 15

Step-by-step explanation:

because 15 is bigger than 12 and the 12 is the bottom line and then the other line going up is 15 so it's equal.

write a function g whose graph represents a translation 2 units to the right followed by a horizontal stretch by a factor or 2 o

Alenkinab [10]

$\bf f(x)=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
y=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}\sqrt{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}(\mathbb{R})^{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}} sin\left({{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right)+{{ D}}\\\\
f(x)=&{{ A}} \left|{{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right|+{{ D}}
\\\\
--------------------\\\\$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ stretches or shrinks horizontally by } {{ A}}\cdot {{ B}}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if }{{ A}}\textit{ is negative}\\
\left. \qquad \right. \textit{reflection over the x-axis}
\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it sideways if }{{ B}}\textit{ is negative}\\
\left. \qquad \right. \textit{reflection over the y-axis}$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ horizontal shift by }\frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is negative, to the right}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is positive, to the left}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ vertical shift by }{{ D}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is negative, downwards}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is positive, upwards}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ period of }\frac{2\pi }{{{ B}}}$

with that template in mind, let's see,

$\bf f(x)=|x| \implies \begin{array}{lllccll}
f(x)=&1|&1x&+0|&+0\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&A&B&C&D
\end{array}$

so, to shift it to the right by 2 units, simply set C = 2.
to stretch it by 2, set A = 1/2.

the smaller A is, the wider it opens, the larger it is, the more it shrinks.
