Answer:
Only C is a function
Step-by-step explanation:
To test whether a graph is a function you use the vertical line test.
If you can place a vertical line anywhere on the plane (in the domain of the "function" to be tested) and it intersects the curve at more than one point, the curve is not a function.
We see with A, wherever we put the vertical line it intersects twice.
With B, it intersects infinitely many times.
C is a function because wherever we put the vertical line, it only intersects once.
D is a function because it intersects twice providing we do not put it on the "tip" of the parabola.
The mathematical reasoning behind this is that a function must be well-defined, that is it must send every x-value to one specific y-value. There can be no confusion about where the function's input is going. If you look at graph B and I ask you what is f(3)? Is it 1? 2? 3? ... Who knows, it's not well-defined and so it's not a function. However if I ask you about C, whichever input value for x I give you, you can tell me to which y-value it gets mapped/sent to.
Answer:
A)segment A"B"= AB / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle A″B″C″ is formed using the translation (x + 2, y + 0) and the dilation by a scale factor of one half from the origin. Which equation explains the relationship between segment AB and segment A"B"?
coordinate plane with triangle ABC at A(-3, 3), B(1, -3), and C(-3, -3)
A)segment A"B"= AB / 2
B)segment AB = segment A"B"/ 2
C)segment AB / segment A"B"= 1/2
D)segment A"B" / segment AB = 2
A"B" = AB / 2
Because
1. translations do not change the lengths of segments, so (x+2, y+0) preserves the length of AB, i.e. mA'B' = mAB
2. Dilation causes the new segment to be transformed to a new length according to the old length * the scale factor of (1/2).
Therefore A"B" = (1/2)AB, or AB/2.
Speed is expressed as the ratio of distance/time = d/t
in Alex's case, speed = (3.8 miles / 18 minutes)
. . . or simply
3.8/18
