ANSWER

D. As the x-values increase, the y-values would decrease

EXPLANATION

The given function is
y =  -  \frac{1}{2} x - 7


The slope of this function is
m =  -  \frac{1}{2}

Since the slope is negative, there is a negative or an inverse relationship between x and y.

As the values of x increases, the values of y decreases.

Also, as the values of x decreases, the values of y increases.

The first option is not true because as x is becoming bigger and bigger negatively, y will become positive.

For instance, when
x =  - 40
y =  -  \frac{1}{2} ( - 40) - 7


This implies that,

y = 20 - 7 = 13

Options B is obviously not true because the function has a negative relationship between x and y.


Option C is also false because, x can be positive since it is the independent variable.

See graph



Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

Describe the position of the function below relative to the graph of the indicated basic function.
matrenka [14]

From the given the option moved left 1 unit; reflected across the x axis is the correct.

what is function?

A function from a set X to a set Y in mathematics assigns each element of X exactly one element of Y. The set X is known as the function's domain, and the set Y is known as the function's codomain.

We have to describe the position of the function f(x) = -2^x^+^1 relative to the basic function 2^x.

Let the parent function is 2^x.

After shifting one unit right it becomes, 2^x^+^1.

After reflection in x axis it  becomes, -2^x^+^1.

Hence, from the given the option moved left 1 unit; reflected across the x axis is the correct.

Which of the following could be used to calculate the area of a sector in the circle shown below
lara [203]

Answer:

Therefore the Last option is correct

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius = r = 8 in

θ = 42°

To Find:

Area of Sector = ?

Solution:

We know that

\textrm{Area of Sector}=\pi (Radius)^{2}\times \frac{\theta}{360}

Substituting the given values in the formula we get

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})

Which is the required Answer.

Therefore the Last option is correct

\textrm{Area of Sector ACD}=\pi (8\ in)^{2}\times (\frac{42}{360})
