Answer:

13:8:7

Step-by-step explanation:

84 - 24 = 60

60 oranges were either ripe or unripe.

18 more ripe oranges than unripe oranges.

x + 18 = ripe oranges

x = unripe oranges

x + 18 + x = 60

2x + 18 = 60

2x = 42

x = 21

21 are unripe oranges

21 + 18 = 39

39 oranges are ripe.

Ratio of the number of ripe oranges to the number of rotten oranges to the number of unripe oranges.

39:24:21

13:8:7

Given the function f(x) = 4(x + 1)^2 – 3, indicate the shifts that will affect the location of the vertex, and explain what effe
solniwko [45]
He first two are relatively easy. f(x-2) shifts it sideways (2 to the right in this case) f(x) -2 shifts it straight down (by 2)
f(2x) means replace x with 2x in the original 4(2x + 1)^2 − 3 if you factor out the 2 from the square root you get 4*sqr(2) ( x + ½)^2 - 3 which is now in the form a ( x -h)^2 + k the vertex is now at (-½, -3) (it used to be at (-1,-3) the "a" has gotten bigger, which makes the parabola "skinnier" (it goes up faster)
2•f(x) becomes 2*( 4(x + 1)2 − 3 ) = 8 (x+1)^2 -6 where is the vertex now? is this parabola fatter or skinnier than the original f(x) ?

zysi [14]

Answer:

1.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabrielle uses 7.6 pints of blue and white paint to paint her bedroom

1/4 of the paint is blue paint

Therefore the amount of white paint she used to paint her bedroom can he calculated as follows

= 1/4

= 0.25×100

= 25%

25/100×7.6

= 2.5 × 7.6

= 1.9

Hence 1.9 pints of white paint was used to paint the room

Determine the range of the graph above
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The range of the graph is:

-3 ≤ y ≤ 3

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the range of a function is the set of values of the dependent variable 'y' for which a function is defined.

From the given graph, it is clear that the graph goes down at y=-3 and then goes up to y=3  and then goes down again.

In fact, this indicates that the range of the graph lies between y=-3 to y=3

Therefore, the range of the graph is:

-3 ≤ y ≤ 3

Hence, option (B) is correct.
