Answer:
She will be able to cut them into 12.5 pieces

Explanation:
We know that the total number of cakes is 5 cakes and that the portion of each piece would be $\frac{2}{5}$ .

To know the total number of pieces she can divide, we would simply divide the total number of cakes by the portion of each cake as follows:
number of pieces = $\frac{5}{ \frac{2}{5}}$

number of pieces = $\frac{25}{2}$

number of pieces = 12.5 pieces

Hope this helps :)

If y=3x+1 were changed to y=x+1 how would the graph of the new function compare with the original?

Olegator [25]

F(x)=3x+1 (preimage)
g(x)=x+1 (image)
it is undergoing a reduction/compression with translation.
In general, a linear transformation is
g(x) = a*f(bx-h)+k
h=horizontal translation (right if h>0, left if h<0, note formula has minus sign)
k=vertical translation (up if k>0, down if k<0)
a=vertical stretching, (stretching if |a|>1, compression if |a|<1, also, if a<0, a reflection across the x-axis is performed)
b=horizontal stretching (|b|>0 compression, |b|<0 stretching, also, if b<0, a reflection across the y-axis is performed)

In this case,
g(x)=f(x/3), so it is a horizontal stretching.
Note that the y-intercept remains unchanged.
