Answer:

Segment

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a segment because it has two endpoints (the Earth and Moon). If it was a ray, it would go on forever in one direction. It doesn't, so the imaginary line is a segment.

The first image is a segment, the second is a ray.

Hope this helps. :)

Un automovil gasta 6 litros cada 110 kilometros ¿cuantos kilometros recorrera con 22 litros

natulia [17]

Answer:

403.33 kilometros

Step-by-step explanation:

De la pregunta anterior:

6 litros = 110 kilómetros

22 litros = x

Cruz multiplicar

6 litros × x = 22 litros × 110 kilómetros

x = 22 litros × 110 kilómetros / 6 litros

x = 403.33 kilometros

Así, 22 litros recorrerán 403.33 kilómetros

If f(x) = x2, which of the following describes the graph of f(x - 1)? A. The graph of f(x - 1) is a horizontal shift of f(x) = x

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand this, we can look at the vertical & horizontal translations of a parabola of the form $f(x)=x^2$

A vertically translated parabola has the form $f(x)=x^2+k$ , where k is the vertical shift upward when k is positive and vertical shift downward when k is negative.
A horizontally translated parabola has the form $f(x)=(x-a)^2$ , where a is the horizontal shift rightward when a is positive and horizontal shift leftward when a is negative.

When we replace x of the original function with (x-1), we have $f(x)=(x-1)^2$ . According to the rules, this means that the original function is shifted 1 unit right (horizontal shift).
