Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 represents every fraction, where the denominator (bottom part) is twice the numerator (top part).
like 4/8 or 6/12 or 128/256 or ...
what do we need in the denominator to calculate with 15/16 ?
the same : 16.
and what is half of 16 ? 8.
so, we need the 1/2 based on 16th = 8/16.
so, the dog ate 8/16 (1/2) of the original 15/16.
what was left was
15/16 - 8/16 = 7/16 pound
Answer: y =
x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
This is asking us to remove the parameter. In other words, we want an equation with only the relation between x and y, so we need to remove the t. There are a few ways to do this, but I am going to set one equation equal to t and then plug it into the next one.
Given:
x = 5t
Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
t =
x
-
Given:
y = t + 8
Plug in:
y = (
x) + 8
Answer:
y =
x + 8
<span>The correct answer is D) g(x) = -(x + 2)^2. The given formula F(x) = x^2 creates a parabola that is open at the top. To reflect this figure across the x-axis and have it open at the bottom, the y-position of the figure on the coordinate system for every x value, which is F(x) = y = x^2 has to be inverted. This is done by negating y and respectively x^2, so to reflect the figure on the x-axis the formula would now look like this: F(x) = -y = -x^2. To move any parabola two units to the left and thereby have its root be at -2, you would simply subtract -2 from every x-position of the figure in the coordinate system. For an inverted parabola like this one the value to move it on the x-axis has to be added instead and this results in the formula from answer D: g(x) = -(x+2)^2</span>
