x=216

Write a function g whose graph represents a reflection in the y-axis followed by a translation 3 units to the right of the graph

svp [43]

Answer:

$g(x) = |x - 3|$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = |x|$

Required

Translate 3 units right

The result of a right translated function is:

$g(x) = f(x - h)$

Where h is the unit of translation

$h = 3$

$g(x) = f(x - 3)$

Solve for f(x - 3)

$f(x) = |x|$

$f(x - 3) = |x - 3|$

Hence;

$g(x) = |x - 3|$

If you travel 40 miles at 45 miles per hour, how many minutes will that take you?

GenaCL600 [577]

Ok so im not good with words and math, but i am going to try my best to explain it. first you will take 45/60 which is the 45 miles per hour. next you will put it equal to 40/x. x is how many minutes. they are set equal to each other because they are the same ratio. (i honestly dont know why you cross multiply, but you just do). you then multiply 40*60 and 45*x. this gives you 2400=45x. you then divide both sides by 45 and get 53 1/3 minutes. or 53 minutes and 20 seconds
