Can anybody tell me how to solve this

Lyrx [107]

The answer to your question is: Yes, someone undoubtedly can.

Although you haven't asked to be told or shown how to solve it, I'm here
already, so I may as well stick around and go through it with you.

The sheet is telling you to find the solutions to two equations, AND THEN
DO SOMETHING WITH THE TWO SOLUTIONS. But you've cut off the
instructions in the pictures, so all we have are the two equations, and
you'll have to figure out what to do with their solutions.

First equation:
 (2/5) x - 6 = -2
Add 6 to each side:
 (2/5) x = 4
Multiply each side by 5:
 2x = 20
Divide each side by 2 :
 x = 10

Second equation:
 -3y + 1/4 = 13/4
Subtract 1/4 from each side:
 -3y = 12/4
Multiply each side by 4 :
 -12 y = 12
Divide each side by -12 :
  y = -1

Which expression corresponds to this graph?

Elodia [21]

Answer: Choice A

The number line graph is visually showing every number that is 19 or smaller; hence $x \le 19$

Note the use of a closed or filled in circle at the endpoint (in contrast to an open circle). This indicates we are including the endpoint 19 as part of the solution set, and that's why we go for "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign.

4 2/3 divided by 1/2

ycow [4]

Answer:

9 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make 4 2/3 into a improper fraction

4 2/3= 14/3

2. Keep, change, flip

14/3 x 2/1

3. Multiply

14/3 x 2/1= 28/3

4. Simplify

28/3= 9 1/3

(btw keep, change, flip basically means to keep the first fraction the way it is, change the division sign to a multiplication sign, then flip the second fraction so the original denominator is the new numerator, and vise versa.)

Write and equation for the shift of the parent graph y=1/x

SashulF [63]

You can think of this equation as $\bf f(x)=\cfrac{1}{x}\implies f(x)=(x)^{-1}$

and thus apply the transformations to it as such

$\bf \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \textit{function transformations}
\\ \quad \\\\
% left side templates
\begin{array}{llll}
f(x)=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
y=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}\sqrt{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}(\mathbb{R})^{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}} sin\left({{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right)+{{ D}}
\end{array}\\\\
--------------------\\\\$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ stretches or shrinks horizontally by } {{ A}}\cdot {{ B}}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if }{{ A}}\textit{ is negative}
\\\\
\bullet \textit{ horizontal shift by }\frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is negative, to the right}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is positive, to the left}\\\\$

$\bf \bullet \textit{ vertical shift by }{{ D}}\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is negative, downwards}\\\\
\left. \qquad \right. if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is positive, upwards}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ period of }\frac{2\pi }{{{ B}}}$

1) D = 2, C = +3

2) D = -12, C = -2

3) C = +6, D = 3

4) C = -7, D = -7
