Hey there!

A parent function is the most basic function in any group of functions. For example, f(x) = x^2 is the parent function for quadratic functions, and y = x is the parent function for linear functions. When there's nothing added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided to the function.

For A, we see that we're multiplying 2 times 3^x, and since this is not any alternation of any parent function or any parent function in particular, we can rule it out.

For B, we see that 3 is being added to x^2, so it cannot be a parent function.

For C, we see that 2 multiplied to e, therefore it cannot be the mot basic function.

Finally, for D, we see a function that looks similar to the quadratic parent function and is very simple itself. Any alterations to this is any other quadratic function

Your answer is D.

Hope this helps!

To complete the square, how do you find the value that must be added to the expression to make a perfect square trinomial? What
Molodets [167]
Take half of the coefficient of x (which is 2/5) and square it:

[ (1/2)(2/5) ]^2 = (1/5)^2 = 1/25, or 0.04

Thus, to rewrite x^2 + (2/5)x to include a perfect square trinomial,

x^2 + (2/5)x  = x^2 + (2/5)x + (1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or

                 (x+1/5)^2 - (1/5)^2, or (x + 1/5)^2 - 1/25

2x+y=x-y-3=6<br><br> What is x&amp;y????<br><br><br> Please answer asap!!!!
Mariana [72]
2x + y = x - y - 3 = 6
Add 3 to everything
2x + y + 3 = x - y - 3 + 3 = 6 + 3
2x + y + 3 = x - y = 9
2x + y + 3 = 9 
2x + y = 6 = x - y 
Add y to everything
2x + 2y = 6 + y = x
Since x = 6 + y substitute every x with 6 + y
2(6 + y) + 2y = x
12 + 4y = x

This is as simplified as I can get and then just place 12 + 4y into every x in the original problem then solve

Two similar circles are shown. The circumference of the larger circle, with radius OB, is 3 times the circumference of the small
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The circumference of the smaller circle is:

C =  2*pi*x/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for a circle of radius R the circumference is given by:

C = 2*pi*R

where pi = 3.14...

Here we have two circles, A and B, where B is the larger circle and A is the smaller circle.

We know that:

The circumference of B is 3 times the circumference of A.

The radius of circle B is: OB = x

The radius of circle A is: OA

We want to find an expression of OA.

The circumference of circle B will be:

C(B) = 2*pi*OB = 2*pi*x

The circumference of circle A will be:

C(A) = 2*pi*OA

And we know that the circumference of circle B is 3 times the circumference of circle A, then:

C(B) = 3*C(A)

replacing the equations for the circumferences, we get:

2*pi*x = 3*(2*pi*OA)

dividing both sides by 2*pi, we get:

x = 3*OA

Now we want to solve this for OA, then we need to isolate it,

x/3 = OA

We can conclude that the radius of the smaller circle is equal to x/3.

Then the circumference of circle A is:

C(A) = 2*pi*x/3
