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>.

Solve for v -17= 3v - 2 simplify your answer as much as possible
Alika [10]

Answer:

v = -7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 3v from both sides.

v-17 − 3v = 3v−2 −3v

−2v−17=−2

Step 2: Add 17 to both sides.

−2v−17+17=−2+17

−2v=15

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

-2v/2 = 15/2

v = -15/2

v = -7.5

Hope this helps!

.A bag contains 3 red checkers and 5 black checkers. A checker is selected, kept out of the bag, and then another checker is sel
cupoosta [38]

Answer: 15 / 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red checkers = 3

Number of black checkers = 5

Total number of checkers = 8

P(black, then red) = 5/8 × 3/7 = 15/56

We should note that the probability to pick a black checker first will be 5 out of 8. Then, there'll be 7 checkers left and the probability to pick a res checker will be 3/7. We then multiply the probabality of each together.
