To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
 1. You have that a <span>grapefruit is 8% heavier than an orange and an apple is 10% lighter than the orange. Therefore, let's give a value to the orange as following:
 Orange=1 kg
 2. Therefore, you have:
 Grapefruit=1 kg+(0.08x1 kg)=1.08 kg
 Apple=1 kg-(0.1x1 kg)=0.9 kg
 3. Therefore, what</span><span> percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
 %=(0.9/1.08)100-100
 %=16.66%
 The answer is:</span>16.66%

Which statement best describes the effect of replacing the function f(x) = 2x − 2 with the function g(x) = 2x + 5?
umka21 [38]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The  statement which best describes the effect of replacing the function f(x) with g(x) is:

               The graph shifts 7 units up.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The function f(x) is given by :

f(x)=2x-2

The function f(x) is a linear function with positive slope.

and the function g(x) is given by:

g(x)=2x+5

The function g(x) is a linear function with same positive slope.

Also, we know that any transformation of the type:

f(x) → f(x)+k

is a translation transformation such that it if k>0 then it is a shift k units upwards and if k<0 then it is a shift k units downward.

Here we have:

g(x)=2x+5-2+2

i.e.

g(x)=2x-2+7

i.e.

g(x)=f(x)+7

Hence, the function g(x) is a translation of the function f(x) 7 units upward.

Slope of a Line Passing through two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) is given by :

\heartsuit\;\;Slope(m) = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}

Given Points are (-3 , 5) and (6 , -1)

here x₁ = -3 and x₂ = 6 and y₁ = 5 and y₂ = -1

\heartsuit\;\;Slope(m) = \frac{5 + 1}{-3 - 6} = \frac{6}{-9} = \frac{-2}{3}
