Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem here. To find the height, find the difference of the 2 y's. To find the length, find the difference between the 2 x's.

Length = x2 - x1

Height = y2 - y1

√length^2 + height^2 = distance

√5^2 + 5^2 = √50 = 7.07

A midwestern music competition awarded 38 ribbons. The number of blue ribbons awarded was 1 less than the number of white ribbon

Artist 52 [7]

Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.

write a linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at two points. Then write a second linear equation that intersects y=x^2 at just o

Liula [17]

We know that $y = x^2$ is a parabola, concave up, with vertex in the origin $(0,0)$

So, we may use three horizontal lines for our purpose: any horizontal line above the x axis will intersect the parabola twice. The x axis itself intersects the parabola once on the vertex, while any horizontal line below the x axis won't intercept the parabola.

Here's the examples:

The horizontal line $y = 4$ intercepts the parabola twice: the system $y = x^2,\ y = 4$ is solved by $x^2=4 \implies x = \pm 2$
The horizontal line $y=0$ intercepts the parabola only once: the system is $y=x^2,\ y=0$ which yields $x^2=0\implies x=0$ which is a repeated solution
The horizontal line $y=-5$ intercepts the parabola only once: the system is $y=x^2,\ y=-5$ which yields $x^2=-5$ which is impossible, because a squared number can't be negative.

If you apply the changes below to the linear parent function, Fx) = x, what is

Inga [223]

Answer: A. G(x)= ax=y= - f(x) is flip over x-axis. Therefore, f(x) =14x would become f(x) =-14x. Therefore, final transformed function f(x)=-14x is vertically stretch by a factor of 14 and flip over the x-axis.
