Answer:

y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The condition about stretching is that when the stretch factor is greater than 1, the function will be closer to OY axis; when the stretch factor is between 0 and 1, the function will be closer to OX axis.

We can observe this end result in the attached graphs.

The red line represent the original function and the blue line is y=2x

As we can observe that the condition still holds.

PLEASE HELP‼️‼️Drag the expression that is the most reasonable measurement for each object.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

A. Length of a Tour Bus ↔ #2. 1.1 × 10¹ meters

B. Width of an apple ↔ #3. 4 × 10⁰ centimeters

C. Distance from Earth to a Satellite ↔ #6. 8 × 10² kilometers

D. Thickness of a human hair ↔ #5. 9 × 10¹ micrometers

Explanation:

A. Length of a tour bus.

The length of a tour bus should be measured in meters. It sure is way less than 1 kilometer and way more than a few centimeters. It could be about some meters, more than 5 meters, may be between 10 meters and 15 meters.

The measurement in the box # 2. is 1.1 × 10¹ meters, which is equivalent to 1.1 × 10meters = 11 meters. Thus, this is a reasonable length.

B. Width of an apple.

The most appropiate unit to measure the width of an apple should be centimer. It certanly is shorter than 1 meter and bigger than 1 mm.

The width of an apple could be, more or less, around 8 centimeters. The only measurement in the boxes that is in that order is that in the box #3., 4 × 10⁰ centimeters, because 10⁰ = 1, so 4 × 10⁰ = 4 × 1 = 4centimeters.

C. Distance from Earth to a Satellite

The distance from Earth to a satellite should be measured in kilometers.

You can find in the internet that the distances of the satellites are between 700 kilometers and 36,000 kilometers.

The number in the box #1 is too big, in the order of ten trillions of kilometers, because one trillion is 10¹²; thus that is notreasonalbe (too big).

The number in the box #6 is 8 × 10² kilometers, which is equal to 8 × 100 = 800 kilometers.

Thus, 8 × 10² kilometers (box #6) is the most reasonable measurement for the distance from Earth to a Satellite

D. Thickness of a human hair

Of course, kilometers, meters, centimeters and even milimeters are units too big to measure the thickness of a human hair.

One micrometer is 10⁻⁶ meters or 10⁻³ milimeters.

In the internet you can find that diameter of the humar hairis in the range from 17 micrometers to 181 micrometers.

The measurement in the box #5. is 9 × 10¹ micrometers, which is equivalent to 9 × 10 = 90 micrometers.

Thus, 9 × 10¹ micrometers is the most reasonable measurement fot the thickness of a human hair.

For the composite function, identify an inside function and an outside function and write the derivative with respect to x of th

alexira [117]

Answer:

The inner function is $h(x)=4x^2 + 8$ and the outer function is $g(x)=3x^5$ .

The derivative of the function is $\frac{d}{dx}\left(3\left(4x^2+8\right)^5\right)=120x\left(4x^2+8\right)^4$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

A composite function can be written as $g(h(x))$ , where $h$ and $g$ are basic functions.

For the function $f(x)=3(4x^2+8)^5$ .

The inner function is the part we evaluate first. Frequently, we can identify the correct expression because it will appear within a grouping symbol one or more times in our composed function.

Here, we have $4x^2+8$ inside parentheses. So $h(x)=4x^2 + 8$ is the inner function and the outer function is $g(x)=3x^5$ .

The chain rule says:

$\frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))]=f'(g(x))g'(x)$

It tells us how to differentiate composite functions.

The function $f(x)=3(4x^2+8)^5$ is the composition, $g(h(x))$ , of

outside function: $g(x)=3x^5$

inside function: $h(x)=4x^2 + 8$

The derivative of this is computed as

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(3\left(4x^2+8\right)^5\right)=3\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(4x^2+8\right)^5\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:chain\:rule}:\quad \frac{df\left(u\right)}{dx}=\frac{df}{du}\cdot \frac{du}{dx}\\f=u^5,\:\:u=\left(4x^2+8\right)\\\\3\frac{d}{du}\left(u^5\right)\frac{d}{dx}\left(4x^2+8\right)\\\\3\cdot \:5\left(4x^2+8\right)^4\cdot \:8x\\\\120x\left(4x^2+8\right)^4$
