Which function corresponds to the table of inputs and outputs?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

f(x) = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

That's easy to find out.  You have your input number, which is your x value, and you have your output number which is your y value (or f(x)).

All you have to do is see if each of the proposed answer works for ALL entries in the data set.

f(x) = 3x + 2  

for x = 3 ===>  11 = 3 (3) + 2 = 11 YES

for x = 5 ===>  17 = 3 (5) + 2 = 17 YES

for x = 7 ===>  23 = 3 (7) + 2 = 23 YES

for x = 9 ===>  29 = 3 (9) + 2 = 29 YES

f(x) = 2x + 5  

for x = 3 ===>  11 = 2 (3) + 5 = 11 YES

for x = 5 ===>  17 = 2 (5) + 5 = 15 NO - we stop here for this function

f(x) = x + 7  

 for x = 3 ===>  11 = (3) + 7 = 10 NO - we stop here for this function

f(x) = 3x + 1

 for x = 3 ===>  11 = 3 (3) + 1 = 10 NO - we stop here for this function

A tropical species of mite named Archegozetes longisetosus is the record holder for the strongest insect in the world. It can li
taurus [48]

We are given that the insect can lift 1.182 x 10^3 times it's own weight. Say that w is weight, so the lift is:

lift = 1.182 x 10^3 * w

 

Assuming that your body weight is 60 kg, therefore you can lift:

lift = 1.182 x 10^3 * 60 kg = 70,920 kg

mart [117]

Answer:

Two different transformations happen. Rotation/Reflection and translation (I say rotation/reflection because they can both put the parabola where it is after being transformed)

(Rotation- 180 degrees)

(Reflection across its it's starting point)

Translation- pushed up 4 points from negative 4 to 0 on the y-axis

When you put the parent function into a graph it is positive so the u is opening upward and starts at -4. Both sides of the u go through the points (0,0)and (4,0).

But in the transformed function is negative so the u opens downward. The sides going through the points (0,-4) and (4,-4)

I hope this makes sense
