Functions A and C and D are translations - this means that they are exactly the same shape as f(x), but are displaced on the axes. A translation in the y-direction by k units is represented by f(x) + k, and a translation in the x-direction by k units is represented by f(x - k). This can be summarised in column vector notation:

A translation of the graph y = f(x), by the vector \left[\begin{array}{ccc}a\\b\end{array}\right] results in the graph defined by y - b = f(x - a). This is done by replacing x with (x - a) and y with (y - b). Finally it is rearranged to make y the subject, as is often the convention: y = f(x - a) + b.

Since the graph needs to change shape, this requires a 'stretch'. A stretch is performed by multiplying x or y by a constant, which here is k.

To stretch in the x-direction by a factor n, replace x with (1/n)x. Similarly to stretch in the y-direction by a factor n, replace y with (1/n)y.

For example to stretch y = f(x) by factor n in the x-direction, it would become y = f((1/n)x).

A simple quadratic graph like y = x^2 behaves slightly differently to most other graphs, in that it can narrowed by a stretch in the x or y direction. This means that a more convenient option is to perform a stretch in the y direction, since the multiplier lies outside the function notation. The stretching factor is 3, so we replace y with (1/3)y:

(1/3)y = f(x)
y = 3f(x)

Since k = 3, this becomes

y = kf(x)

... and hence the correct answer is B

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

102.00

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to leave a 20% tip, multiply the cost by 0.20 to get the tip amount or multiply the cost by 1.20 to get the total including tip. If you want to leave a 18% tip, multiply the cost by 0.18 to get the tip amount or multiply the cost by 1.18 to get the total including tip.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Each unit is equal to each other, and we know that both allowances together equates to 72, so if we divide the amount of units that there are, we can determine the amount per month.

There are 8 units in total.

72 divided by 8 = 9

<u>Now, we do 9 times the amount each person has.</u>

<u>You = 5 * 9 = 45</u>

<u>Friend = 3 * 9 = 27</u>
