HHHEEEELLLPPPPP just 3 questions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1. How does evaluating a function at specific points relate to graphing th

e function? 2. What is the process for finding x and y - intercepts from a graph? a table? an equation? 3. Can you think of a career or field of work that utilizes the skills of interpreting, comparing, and/or graphing functions? How might that career or field use the skill/concept?

Answer:

1) When we have a function y = f(x), evaluating this function in one given point (x0 for example ) is equivalent to changing the x inside the function by the value x0.

This will give us the point (x, f(x0)).

now, a graph is conformed by the set of all the points (x, f(x)).

2) The x and y-intercepts are the points where the graph intercepts the x-axis or the y-axis.

If you have a table with points (x, y), the y-intercept is the point (0, y') and the x-intercept is the point (x', 0)

Where x' and y' are known values.

If you have an equation:

y = f(x).

The x-intercept is the point (x', 0)

So you need to find the value x' such that f(x') = 0.

The y-intercept is the point (0, y')

So you need to evaluate the function in x = 0, and find the value of y.

y' = f(0).

3) The obvious answer is any science-related career, where graphs are used to transmit a lot of information with almost no words.

Another option can be an economist, where, for example, interpreting and comparing graphs can be useful to determine which option fits better the needs of a given company or what decision is better to be taken.

What is the product of 0.51 × 0.24?<br><br> 0.1224<br> 1.124<br> 11.24<br> 1124
natima [27]
0.52 x 0.24 means "about a half times 0.24". Given the multiple choice answers, the correct answer is therefore 0.1224 (since this is the only one smaller than 0.24).

Proof:
0.50 × 0.24 = 0.12
0.01 × 0.24 = 0.0024
And therefore 0.51 × 0.24 = 0.12 + 0.0024 = 0.1224

Write an equation for the translation of y=|x|. 2 units down.
Bezzdna [24]
B. Y = <span>|x| - 2
when moving left or right...meaning moving horizontally.......the number is added inside the parenthesis. 

This one is moving up or down ....meaning moving horizontally........so the number is added outside the parenthesis. If it moves up then add(+)..........if it moves down then subtract(-). The formula used for horizontal shifts is, y=lXl + k
.Here k will become negative or remain positive based on the given data.

Now,
It's a horizontal shift, so we can eliminate C and D.
 It moves down so we will subtract and therefore we can eliminate A

so the answer is B.
 lets check our answer by using the formula

Y = lxl + k
moves 2 units down so our k = (-2)
Y = lxl + (-2)  [substitute k]
Y = lxl - 2

The slope of Consider the line whose equation is 3x + y - 3 = 0. The slope of any line that is parallel to this line is any line
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

parallel : y = -3x + 3

perpendicular : y = 1/3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

rewrite 3x + y - 3 = 0

y = -3x + 3

parallel has the same slope

so

parallel : y = -3x + 3

perpendicular is negative reciprocal of the slope

so

-3x becomes 1/3x

so

perpendicular : y = 1/3x + 3
