\boxed{ \ x \geq 1 \ } or can be written as \boxed{ \ [1, \infty) \ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

This is a question about the composition of functions and how to get a domain function.

Given \boxed{ \ a(x) = 3x + 1 \ } and \boxed{ \ b(x) = \sqrt{x - 4} \ }.

We will form (b o a)(x) and then determine the domain.

<u>Step-1</u>

\boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = b(a(x)) \ }

Replace each appearance of x in b(x) with \boxed{ \ a(x) = 3x + 1 \ }.

\boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{(3x + 1) - 4} \ }

Thus, \boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3} \ }

<u>Step-2</u>

To be defined, the value under the radical sign must not be negative. Therefore, the domain of (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3} are processed as follows.

\boxed{ \ 3x - 3 \geq 0 \ }

Both sides added by 3.

\boxed{ \ 3x \geq 3 \ }

Both sides divided by 3.

\boxed{ \ x\geq 1 \ }

Thus, the domain of (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3} is \boxed{ \ x \geq 1 \ } or can be written as \boxed{ \ [1, \infty) \ }

Write an integer to represent the following situation: Earnings of 15 dollars
ANEK [815]

Situation :  Earnings of 15 dollars is represented as integer as +15 .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , to Write an integer to represent the following situation: Earnings of 15 dollars  . Let's find out:

Integer : An integer in math is composes of both positive and negative whole number as : -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3 etc ..........

According to statement , we need to write an integer to represent the statement : EARNINGS OF 15 DOLLARS  . There is word earnings in statement that means increment or increase , and other words are 15 dollars or $15 . So , above statement means increase of 15 dollars which can be represented as an integer as given below :

⇒ +15

Where + sign means increase or , with reference to statement it refers to word earnings . Therefore , Situation :  Earnings of 15 dollars is represented as integer as +15 .

Write a single transformation that maps ABC onto A' B' C'
blsea [12.9K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Either of ...

  • (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y)
  • Rotation 180° about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

There are at least two ways to express the transformation that maps each coordinate to its opposite.

  1. reflection across the origin: (x, y) ⇒ (-x,-y)

  2. rotation 180° (either direction) about the origin.

Take your pick.

How does the graph of this function compare with the graph of the parent function, y=1/x? It is shifted right 5 units and up 2 u
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

It is shifted left 5 units and up 2 units from the parent function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = \frac{1}{x}

y' = \frac{1}{x+5} + 2

Required

Compare both functions

First, translate y, 5 units left.

The rule is:

(x,y) \to (x + 5,y)

So, we have:

y = \frac{1}{x}

y_1 = \frac{1}{x + 5}

Next, translate y1, 2 units up.

The rule is:

(x,y) \to (x,y+2)

So, we have:

y' = y_1 + 2

y' = \frac{1}{x + 5} + 2

Hence, the transformation is:

5 units left and 2 units up
