Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 1 pound equals 16 ounces.

We have to calculate the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

UNITARY METHOD is a method used to calculate the value of a single unit and then multiply it with the desired unit.

Since, given 16 ounces makes 1 pound

So, 1 ounces makes $\frac{1}{16}$ pounds

We have to find the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

So, 116 ounces makes $\frac{1}{16}\times 116$ pounds

Simplify, $\frac{1}{16}\times 116=7.25$

Thus, There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.

The graph of y=tan(x) is vertically stretched by a factor of 7, shifted a distance of 12 units to the left, reflected across the

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

A transformation(s) of a parent function is

$f(x) = a(bx - c) + d$

where a is vertical compression/stretched or reflection

B is horinzotnal compression/stretch or reflection

C is horinzontal translation

D is vertical translation.

The parent function is

$y = \tan(x)$

First, we stretched this by 7

so we have

$y = 7 \tan(x)$

We need to shift this 12 units to the left so we have

$y = 7 \tan(x + 12)$

We need to reflect this across x axis so we get

$y = - 7 \tan(x + 12)$

We need to shift this downwards 15 so we get

$y = - 7 \tan(x + 12) - 15$

or because tan is a odd function you could say

$7 \tan( - (x + 12) ) - 15$

$7 \tan( - x - 12) - 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

(f+g)(x)= f(x) + g(x)

= |3x+4| + 2 + 4

= | 3x + 4 | + 6
