Answer:
f(x) and g(x) have the same x-intercepts (is <em>not true</em>)
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) is a reflection across the y-axis and a horizontal compression of f(x). In general those transformations will move the x-intercepts. (The y-intercept and the number of x-intercepts will remain unchanged.)
_____
<em>Comment on the question/answer</em>
f(x) = x^3 is a 3rd degree polynomial. When transformed to g(x) = -8x^2, its only x-intercept (x=0) remains the same. The answer above will not apply in any instance where the only x-intercept is on the line of reflection. (The question is flawed in that it does not make any exception for such functions.)
27) if a = 1/a
multiply both sides by a
a * a = 1/a * a
a^ 2 = 1
Answer is D) 1
28)
6 x 75 = 450
7 x 80 = 560
8 x 85 = 680
9 x 90 = 810
Total all students in class = 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 30 students
Total score of whole class:
450 + 560 + 680 + 810 = 2500
Average = 2500 /30 = 83.3 = 83 1/3
Answer is C) 83 1/3
