Answer: option a.

f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (3)^x


Explanation:


A <em>shrink</em> of a function is a <em>shrink</em> on the vertical direction. It means that for a certain value of x, the new function will have a lower value, in the intervals where the function is positive, or a higher value, in those intervals where the function is negative. This is, the image of the new function is shortened in the vertical direction.


That is the reason behind the rule:

  • given f(x), the graph of the function a×f(x), when a > 1, represents a vertical stretch of f(x),
  • given f(x), the graph of the function a×f(x), when a < 1, represents a vertical shrink of f(x).

So, we just must apply the rule: to find a shrink of an exponential growth function, multiply the original function by a scale factor less than 1.


Since it <em>is a shrink of</em> <em>an exponential growth function</em>, the base must be greater than 1. Among the options, the functions that meet that conditon are a and b:


a. f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (3)^x \\ \\ b.f(x) = 3(3)^x


Now, following the rule it is the function with the fraction (1/3) in front of the exponential part which represents a <em>shrink of an exponential function</em>.

Which point is an x-intercept of the quadratic function f(x)=(x-4)(x+2)
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

x = - 2 or x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

The x- intercepts are at x = - 2, x = 4

Write a quadratic function with zeroes 0 and 8.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x^2-8x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

the quadratic function should be as follows:

x^2-8x=0

Now let's confirm that the zeros of the function are 0 and 8

x^2-8x=0=x(x-8)=0

Therefore we can see that if x = 0

0^2*8*0=0\\0=0

the equation is fulfilled

And we also have (x-8)

for this expresion to be equal to zero:

x-8=0\\x=8

thus, if x = 8

8^2-8*8=0\\64-64=0\\0=0

the equation is also fulfilled

The zeros of the quadratic function x^2-8x=0 are 0 and 8.

Part A:
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

A). From the graph attached,

    Arrow AB represents the RISE and arrow BC represents the RUN.

B). RUN from point A to B (Horizontal distance) = 2 units

    Rise from point A to B (Vertical distance) = -4 [Since, downwards arrow represents negative notation]

    Slope of the line segment AB = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}

                                                       = \frac{-4}{2}

                                                       = -2

   Therefore, slope of the line = slope of the line segment AB = -2

    Option D will be the correct option.
