Mathematics

Answer: Brandon is 24, Michael is 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent Michael

Let b represent Brandon

Then,

m = 3b                    <-----------"Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon."  

m - 18 = 9(b - 18)    <-----------"18 years ago, Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon."  

3b - 18 = 9b - 162

-18 = 6b - 162

144 = 6b

Michael is 3 times as old as Brandon. Also, 18 years ago, Brandon would have been 6 and Michael would have been 54 meaning Michael was 9 times as old as Brandon 18 years ago.

What figure appears to be the image of figure h after a dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 and a rotation of 180 degrees?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Figure D

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the scale factor of the dilation is 1/2, that means the dilation is a reduction

so

the answer is between the Figure C and Figure D

but  

a rotation of 180° eliminate the Figure C

therefore

The answer is the Figure D

<h3>2 Answers: Choice C and choice D</h3>

y = csc(x) and y = sec(x)

==========================================================

Explanation:

The term "zeroes" in this case is the same as "roots" and "x intercepts". Any root is of the form (k, 0), where k is some real number. A root always occurs when y = 0.

Use GeoGebra, Desmos, or any graphing tool you prefer. If you graphed y = cos(x), you'll see that the curve crosses the x axis infinitely many times. Therefore, it has infinitely many roots. We can cross choice A off the list.

The same applies to...

  • y = cot(x)
  • y = sin(x)
  • y = tan(x)

So we can rule out choices B, E and F.

Only choice C and D have graphs that do not have any x intercepts at all.

------------

If you're curious why csc doesn't have any roots, consider the fact that

csc(x) = 1/sin(x)

and ask yourself "when is that fraction equal to zero?". The answer is "never" because the numerator is always 1, and the denominator cannot be zero. If the denominator were zero, then we'd have a division by zero error. So that's why csc(x) can't ever be zero. The same applies to sec(x) as well.

sec(x) = 1/cos(x)
