John is at a local bait shop; he wants to buy bait for his fishing trip. At the store, they are selling live bait for $12 a poun

d and natural bait for $7 a pound. John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait, but he only has a budget of $63. Let x be the amount of live bait and y be the amount of natural bait. Model the scenario with a system of inequalities.

Answer:

x\geq3

12x+7y\leq63

y\geq0

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x be the amount of live bait and y be the amount of natural bait, Then we can come up with the following inequalities;

We are told that John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait. At least 3 means 3 or more. Since x represents the amount of live bait, we have;

x\geq3

Moreover,we are informed that;

The store sells live bait for $12 a pound and natural bait for $7 a pound. x pounds of live bait would cost 12x while y pounds of natural bait would cost 7y. The total cost would thus be;

12x + 7y

but John only has a budget of $63. This implies that he can spend $63 at most, thus;

12x+7y\leq63

Finally we can have our last inequality as;

y\geq0

Which of the following statements about f(x)=(x-4)^2-1 are true? select all that apply
melamori03 [73]
We have that
f(x)=(x-4)^2-1  in the question and f(x)=-(x-4)^2-1 in the picture
<span>so

</span><span>I'm going to analyze the two cases
</span><span>
using a graph tool

case 1)
</span>f(x)=(x-4)^2-1<span>
the vertex is the point (4,-1)
the x intercepts are the points (3,0) and (5,0)
the y intercept is the point (0,15)
</span><span>the axis of symmetry is x=4
</span>see the attached figure N 1 

case 2)
f(x)=-(x-4)^2-1
the vertex is the point (4,-1)
there is no x intercepts
the y intercept is the point (0,-17)
the axis of symmetry is x=4
see the attached figure N 2






the answer 
<span>considering the case N 2 </span>is
vertex (4,-1)------> is correct
y intercept  (0,-17)-----> is correct
axis of symmetry x=4-----> is correct

How do you graph this f(x)= -3/2|x|+5 if x≤4​
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

I enter the equation into a graphing calculator and let it do the graphing.

___

If you're graphing this by hand, you start by looking for the parent function. Here, it is |x|. That has a vertex of (0, 0) and a slope of +1 to the right of the vertex and a slope of -1 to the left of the vertex.

Here, the function is multiplied by -3/2, so will open downward and have slopes of magnitude 3/2 (not 1). The graph has been translated 5 units upward, so the vertex is (0, 5).

I'd start by plotting the vertex point at (0, 5), then identifying points with slope ±3/2 either side of it. To the left, it is left 2 and down 3 to (-2, 2). The points on the right of the vertex are symmetrically located about the y-axis, so one of them will be (2, 2).

Of course, you don't plot any function values for x > 4.
