Why do we reverse the direction of the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative number?

When you multiplied both sides by a NEGATIVE number, what WAS negative became positive, and what WAS positive became negative! Everything that was larger became small, and what was smaller became large. Everything REVERSED

Suppose f(x)=x^2 what is the graph of g(x)=f(2x)

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Since g(x) = f(2x), this means we substitute 2x in place of x for f(x):

g(x) = f(2x) = (2x)² = 4x²

Graphing this, the parabola is not moved from the parent graph f(x) = x², but the graph is compressed horizontally by a factor of 4.Step-by-step explanation:

galina1969 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: $x^{-a} = \frac{1}{x^a}$

a. $4^{-3} = \frac{1}{4^3} = \frac{1}{64}$

b. $13^{-2} = \frac{1}{13^2} = \frac{1}{169}$

c. $(-3)^{-2} = \frac{1}{-3^2} = \frac{1}{9}$

The area of a shape is the amount of space a shape can occupy, while the perimeter is the sum of its lengths.

<em>The perimeter is </em> $18 + 3\sqrt 5 + 3\sqrt 2$ <em>units</em>
<em>The area of the sanctuary is 27 square units</em>

We have:

$A = (5,7)\\B=(8, 7)\\C=(8, 1)\\D=( 1, 1)\\E=( 1, 4)\\F= ( 5,4)$

<u>Perimeter</u>

See attachment for the layout of the sanctuary

$BC = \sqrt{(8 - 8)^2 + (7 - 1)^2} = 6$

$EF = \sqrt{(1 - 5)^2 + (4 - 4)^2} = 4$

$FA = \sqrt{(5 - 5)^2 + (4 - 7)^2} = 3$

From the attachment, the sides are

<em>AB, BF, FC, CD, DE and EA</em>

Start by calculating the length of each side using the following distance formula:

$d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_2)^2}$

So, we have:

$AB = \sqrt{(5 - 8)^2 + (7 - 7)^2} = 3$

$BF = \sqrt{(8 - 5)^2 + (7 -1)^2} = \sqrt{45} = 3\sqrt 5$

$FC = \sqrt{(8 - 5)^2 + (1 -4)^2} = \sqrt{18} = 3\sqrt 2$

$CD = \sqrt{(8 - 1)^2 + (1 - 1)^2} = 7$

$DE = \sqrt{(1 - 1)^2 + (1 - 4)^2} = 3$

$EA = \sqrt{(1 - 5)^2 + (4 -7)^2} = 5$

So, the perimeter (P) is:

$P = AB + BF + FC + CD + DE + EA$

$P = 3 + 3\sqrt 5 + 3\sqrt 2 + 7 + 3 + 5$

$P = 18 + 3\sqrt 5 + 3\sqrt 2$

<em>Hence, the perimeter is </em> $18 + 3\sqrt 5 + 3\sqrt 2$ <em>units</em>

<u>Area</u>

To calculate the area, we need to divide the sanctuary into three.

<em>Triangle ABF</em>
<em>Triangle EFA</em>
<em>Trapezium CDEF</em>

The area of ABF is:

$Area = \frac 12 \times AB \times FA$

Where:

$AB = 3$

$FA = \sqrt{(5 - 5)^2 + (4 - 7)^2} = 3$

$Area = \frac 12 \times 3 \times 3$

$Area = \frac 92$

The area of EFA is:

$Area = \frac 12 \times EF \times FA$

Where:

$FA = 3$

$EF = \sqrt{(1 - 5)^2 + (4 - 4)^2} = 4$

So:

$Area = \frac 12 \times 4 \times 3$

$Area = 6$

The area of CDEF is:

$Area = \frac 12(CD + EF) \times DE$

Where

$CD = 7$

$EF = 4$

$DE = 3$

So, we have:

$Area = \frac 12 (7 + 4) \times 3$

$Area = \frac 12 \times 11 \times 3$

$Area = \frac {33}2$

So, the area of the sanctuary is:

$Area = \frac 92 + 6 + \frac {33}2$

$Area = \frac {9 +12 + 33}2$

$Area = \frac {54}2$

$Area = 27$

<em>Hence, the area of the sanctuary is 27 square units</em>
