72 m^2 (72 meters squared)
Given:
A student says that the graph of the equation
is the same as the graph of
, only translated upwards by 8 units.
To find:
Whether the student is correct or not.
Solution:
Initial equation is


Equation of after transformation is


Now,
...(i)
The translation is defined as
...(ii)
Where, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.
If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.
If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.
From (i) and (ii), we get

Therefore, the graph of
translated left by 8 units. Hence, the student is wrong.
The cook do not have enough flour. He only has 2.67 cups of flour while the recipe needs 2.75 cups of flour. Therefore, he needs 0.08 more cups of flour in order to have enough for the recipe. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
He spilled 1 and 5/8 cups because 2-3/8= 1 5/8. To check that, use 1 5/8+ 3/8= 2 cups.
