<em>Answer</em>
a. Vertical shrink by a factor of 1/3
<em>Step-by-step explanation</em>
Function transformation
• a,f(x) vertically compresses f(x) when 0 < a < 1
Given the function:

Multiplying f(x) by a = 1/3, we get:

Then, f(x) is vertically shrunk by a factor of 1/3
The formula for perimeter is
Side a x2 + side b x2
So just multiply 18 by two, and subtract it from 108
Answer:
$909.50
Step-by-step explanation:
$850 x 7% = $59.50 (tax amount)
850 x (1+ 0.07) = $909.50
Ok I’m giving a educated guess here so $562 divided by 3 is 187.3 then you do 187.3-23 which would be 164.3 so if I’m correct it would be 164.3 for both the chair and the lamp and 187.3 for the desk also just a heads up the .3 would be .333333.... :) I will delete if I’m wrong
So I think you have to find 11% of 24 and that is 11/100 x 24 = 2.64$. Then you reduce it to the real price 24-2.64= 21.36$ (the new prize). I might be completly wrong but I hope this helps
