Answer:

-x^3+5x^2-8x+1, which is choice A

======================================

Work Shown:

f(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 3

f(x) = (x)^3 - (x)^2 - 3

f(2-x) = (2-x)^3 - (2-x)^2 - 3 ................ see note 1 (below)

f(2-x) = (2-x)(2-x)^2 - (2-x)^2 - 3 ........... see note 2

f(2-x) = (2-x)(4-4x+x^2) - (4-4x+x^2) - 3 ..... see note 3

f(2-x) = -x^3+6x^2-12x+8 - (4-4x+x^2) - 3 ..... see note 4

f(2-x) = -x^3+6x^2-12x+8 - 4+4x-x^2 - 3 ....... see note 5

f(2-x) = -x^3+5x^2-8x+1

----------

note1: I replaced every copy of x with 2-x. Be careful to use parenthesis so that you go from x^3 to (2-x)^3, same for the x^2 term as well.

note2: The (2-x)^3 is like y^3 with y = 2-x. We can break up y^3 into y*y^2, so that means (2-x)^3 = (2-x)(2-x)^2

note3: (2-x)^2 expands out into 4-4x+x^2 as shown in figure 1 (attached image below). I used the box method for this and for note 4 as well. Each inner box or cell is the result of multiplying the outside terms. Example: in row1, column1 we have 2 times 2 = 4. You could use the FOIL rule or distribution property, but the box method is ideal so you don't lose track of terms.

note4: (2-x)(4-4x+x^2) turns into -x^3+6x^2-12x+8 when expanding everything out. See figure 2 (attached image below). Same story as note 3, but it's a bit more complicated.

note5: distribute the negative through to ALL the terms inside the parenthesis of (4-4x+x^2) to end up with -4+4x-x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Chanel

(i) 90° counterclockwise and then dilation by a factor of 1/2

Trapezoid PQRS is given as :

P(6,-4) -------P'(4,6)

Q(2,-2)------Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)-------R'(6,2)

S(6,-6)-------S'(6,6)

The transformation switches the position of (x,y) to and adds a -ve sign to the original y value

B. The new coordinates are : P'(4,6), Q'(2,2),R'(6,2) and S'(6,6)

The  rule for rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin is (x,y)⇒(-y,x)

The rule for dilation with scale factor of 1/2 is (x,y)------(1/2x,1/2y)

P'(4,6) -----P''(2,3)

Q'(2,2)-----Q''(1,1)

R'(6,2)-----R''(3,1)

S'( 6,6)-----S''(3,3)

The dilation reduces the coordinates by 1/2

Preston

E. (i)Reflection over x-axis where the rule is : (x,y)----(x,-y)

(ii)Dilation by scale factor of 1/2 the rule is : (x,y)---(1/2x, 1/2y)

Applying reflection over x-axis rule;

P(6,-4) -----P'(6,4)

Q(2,-2)-----Q'(2,2)

R(2,-6)------R'(2,6)

S(6,-6)------S'(6,6)

The coordinates have changed in that a negative sign is added to the y-axis coordinate.

F. P'(6,4), Q'(2,2), R'(2,6) and S'(6,6)

G. Applying the dilation by scale factor of 1/2

P'(6,4)-------P''(3,2)

Q'(2,2)------Q''(1,1)

R'(2,6)------R''(1,3)

S'(6,6)------S''(3,3)

The coordinates of P'Q'R'S are divide by 2 to give coordinates of P''Q''R''S''

Comparing the answers to the final figure given

K(3,2)

L(1,1)

M(1,3)

N(3,3)

Preston is correct because his sequence proves trapezoid PQRS is similar to trapezoid KLMN.

A grocery store sells bags of oranges in two different sizes the 3 pound bag $4 the 8 pound bag cost $9 which cost less
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The 8 pounds bag

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1 :

a pound cost 4/3

case 2 :

a pound cost 9/8

4×8 > 9×3

then

\frac{4}{3} >\frac{9}{8}

Therefore the 8 pound bag costs less
