x - price of a video tape

y - price of a DVD

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+3y=134\\x+5y=179&|\text{subtract 5y from both sides}\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+3y=134\\x=179-5y&|\text{substitute to the first equation}\end{array}\right\\\\2(179-5y)+3y=134\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\(2)(179)+(2)(-5y)+3y=134\\\\358-10y+3y=134\qquad\text{subtract 358 from both sides}\\\\-7y=-224\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-7)}\\\\\boxed{y=32}\\\\\text{Put the value of y to the second equation}\\\\x=179-5(32)\\\\x=179-160\\\\\boxed{x=19}

<h3>Answer: video tape cost $19 and DVD cost $32.</h3>

Which answer describes the transformation of f (x) = x^2 −1 to g(x)=(x+2)^2−1 ?
pentagon [3]
Answer: A horizontal translation 2 units to the left

In this case, we are changing the variable x before it is being squared. This will have the effect of changing the input of the function. Imagine input 2 into the equation. Your first step would be to add 2. Therefore, you would need to start with a negative 2 to get us back to 0, or the beginning.

Since -2 is to the left of 0, the graph is moving 2 units to the left.
