ANSWER

y = 5

EXPLANATION

The given isosceles tra-pezoid has legs

ab =  - 3y + 54

and

cd = 6y + 9

The base is bc=5y+2.

The length of the legs of the isosceles tra-pezoid are equal.

This implies that,

ab = cd

Thus,

- 3y + 54 = 6y + 9

Group similar terms,

54 - 9 = 6y + 3y

45 = 9y

Divide both sides by 9.

y =  \frac{45}{9}

y = 5

Shane and Karen want to measure the length of a soccer field. Should they use centimeters or meters to measure it? Explain.
Ber [7]

Shane and Karen want to measure the length of a soccer field. Length can be measured in different units such as cm, m ,km , yards etc. The question is asking us to select between two units cm or meters which will be more appropriate to measure the field.

To measure the field a larger unit is required. Meter is a bigger unit than centimeter.Centimeter is not the correct unit to measure the length of soccer field.

Shane and Karen should use meters to measure the soccer field.

Which absolute value function has a graph that is wider than the parent function, f(x) = |x|, and is translated to the right 2 u
RoseWind [281]

Transformation involves changing the form of a function.

The absolute value function is f(x)=0.3|x -2|

The parent function of the absolute value function is:

f(x)=|x|

When the function is translated 2 units to the right, the new function is:

f(x)=|x -2|

From the function to be wider than the absolute function, the function must be stretched by a factor less than 1.

The possible function from the list of given options is f(x)=0.3|x -2|
