Answer:

parabola

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the equation of a parabola, notice that only one of the variables (in this case the variable y) appears squared in the equation, and it satisfies the general form of a parabola with branches pointing horizontally.

What is the reciprocal of 1 and 2/3?
mr_godi [17]

Answer: 3/5

Step-by-step explanation: To find the reciprocal of 1 and 2/3, we first need to convert 1 and 2/3 to an improper fraction.

To write a mixed number as an improper fraction, first multiply the denominator times the whole number, then add the numerator.

So here, we multiply the denominator, 3, times the whole number, 1, then we add the numerator. So we have (3 x 1) + 2 or 3 + 2 which is 5.

Now we put our new number over our old denominator and we get 5/3.

However, we're not done yet. We still need to find the reciprocal.

The reciprocal describes a fraction so when we're asked to find the reciprocal of 5/3, we want to switch the numerator and denominator.

So if we switch 5/3, we get the proper fraction 3/5.

Therefore, the mixed number 1 and 2/3 is equivalent to the improper fraction 5/3, and if we switch the top and bottom numbers, we get 3/5.

Math again yay!...Ew math
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The graph of g(x) is wider.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent function:

f(x)=x^2

New function:

g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x\right)^2=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2

<u>Transformations</u>:

For a > 0

f(x)+a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units up}

f(x)-a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units down}

\begin{aligned} y =a\:f(x) \implies & f(x) \: \textsf{stretched/compressed vertically by a factor of}\:a\\ & \textsf{If }a > 1 \textsf{ it is stretched by a factor of}\: a\\  & \textsf{If }0 < a < 1 \textsf{ it is compressed by a factor of}\: a\\\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} y=f(ax) \implies & f(x) \: \textsf{stretched/compressed horizontally by a factor of} \: a\\& \textsf{If }a > 1 \textsf{ it is compressed by a factor of}\: a\\  & \textsf{If }0 < a < 1 \textsf{ it is stretched by a factor of}\: a\\\end{aligned}

If the parent function is <u>shifted ¹/₄ unit up</u>:

\implies g(x)=x^2+\dfrac{1}{4}

If the parent function is <u>shifted ¹/₄ unit down</u>:

\implies g(x)=x^2-\dfrac{1}{4}

If the parent function is <u>compressed vertically</u> by a factor of ¹/₄:

\implies g(x)=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2

If the parent function is <u>stretched horizontally</u> by a factor of ¹/₂:

\implies g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x\right)^2

Therefore, a vertical compression and a horizontal stretch mean that the graph of g(x) is wider.

20. A rectangle has a length of x + 2 meters and a width of 2x - 5. (A.APR.1)
bija089 [108]

Answer:

A:

2(x + 2) + 2(2x - 5) =

2x + 4 + 4x - 10 =

6x - 6

perimeter = 6x - 6

B:

(x+2)(2x - 5)            expand the brackets:

2x² - 5x + 4x - 10

area = 2x² - x - 10

C:

area = 6x - 6 = (6 x 5) - 6 = 30 - 6 = 24

perimeter = 2x² - x - 10 = (2 x 5²) - 5 - 10 = (2 x 25) - 5 - 10 = 50 - 5 - 10 = 35
