The answer is B because x= the amount before tax and the coupon, 5 is how much is being taken off with the coupon, and 1.08 is the sales tax.

1. IF the function f(x) = 2(x – 3)2 – 4 is shifted vertically three units up and horizontally
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

I believe it is 2(x-5)²−1

Step-by-step explanation:

The parentheses represent the horizontal shift. (X-__) is a shift to the right. (X+__) is a shift to the left. The last number of the function is the vertical shift. A negative number is shifting down and a post number is shifting up.

So, if the graph shifts up three units, then you add 3 + -4 to get -1. And if the graph shifts right 2 units, then you subtract 2 from -3 to get -5.

You design a tree house using a coordinate plane in which the coordinates are measured in feet. The vertices of the floor are (-
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Perimeter = 28 yards

Area = 49 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Let as consider the vertices of the floor are A(-2,-3), B(-2,4), C(5,4) and D(5,-3).

Using distance formula, we get

AB=\sqrt{(-2-(-2))^2+(4-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{(-2+2)^2+(4+3)^2}=\sqrt{0+7}^2=7

Similarly,

BC=\sqrt{(5-(-2))^2+(4-4)^2}=7

CD=\sqrt{(5-5)^2+(4-(-3))^2}=7

AD=\sqrt{(5-(-2))^2+(-3-(-3))^2}=7

It is conclude that, AB=BC=CD=AD.

From the given points it is clear that all sides lie on either vertical or horizontal lines.

Since all sides are equal, and adjacent sides are perpendicular, therefore, the base is a square with edge 7 yards.

Perimeter of square floor is

P=4a=4(7)=28\text{ yards}

Area of square floor is

A=a^2=7^2=49\text{ sq. yards}

Therefore, the perimeter is 28 yards and the area is 49 square yards.
