Answer:

x = 8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

6(3x - 4) = -8

Distribute the 6

18x -24 = -8

Add 24 to each side

18x -24+24 = -8+24

18x = 16

Divide each side by 18

18x/18 =16/18

Simplify the fraction by dividing top and bottom by 2

x = 8/9

Answer:

$\frac{8}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

6(3x - 4) = -8 ⇔ 18x - 24 = -8 ⇔ 18x = 16 ⇔ x = 16/18 = 8/9

Which function represents the graph of f(x)=|x+2| after it is translated 4 units to the right?

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

$g(x)=|x-2|$

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of an absolute function is

$g(x)=|x-h|+k$ .... (1)

where, (h,k) is vertex.

The given function is

$f(x)=|x+2|$

The vertex of the function is (-2,0).

It is given that graph of f(x) is translated 4 units to the right. So, the vertex of the function after translation is (2,0).

Substitute h=2 and k=0 in function (1).

$g(x)=|x-2|+0$

$g(x)=|x-2|$

Therefore, the required function is $g(x)=|x-2|$ .
