  • Answer:

<em>son = 3 years</em>

<em>man = 29 years</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hi there !</em>

<em>m = man</em>

<em>s = son</em>

<em />

<em>m = s + 26</em>

<em>m + 10 = 3(s + 10)</em>

<em>replace m</em>

<em>(s + 26) + 10 = 3s + 30</em>

<em>26 + 10 - 30 = 3s - s</em>

<em>2s = 6</em>

<em>s = 3 years (son)</em>

<em>m = 3 + 26 = 29 years (man)</em>

<em>Good luck !</em>

He first two are relatively easy. f(x-2) shifts it sideways (2 to the right in this case) f(x) -2 shifts it straight down (by 2)
f(2x) means replace x with 2x in the original 4(2x + 1)^2 − 3 if you factor out the 2 from the square root you get 4*sqr(2) ( x + ½)^2 - 3 which is now in the form a ( x -h)^2 + k the vertex is now at (-½, -3) (it used to be at (-1,-3) the "a" has gotten bigger, which makes the parabola "skinnier" (it goes up faster)
2•f(x) becomes 2*( 4(x + 1)2 − 3 ) = 8 (x+1)^2 -6 where is the vertex now? is this parabola fatter or skinnier than the original f(x) ?

   a horizontal line has zero slope  

            slope = rise/run  = 0 / run = 0

Greatest y value is + 4   from x = 3 to 4

the least y value is -3 fro x = -4 to -3
