the function g(x) Is the graph below resulted from shifting the graph of f(x) down 2 units. If f’(2)=8, what is g’(2)?
Sauron [17]

We know that the graph of g(x) is the result of a shift of 2 units down from f(x).

Then, f(x) and g(x) are related by:

g(x)=f(x)-2

Taking the derivative:

g^{\prime}(x)=f^{\prime}(x)

This is because the derivative of a constant number is 0. Finally, evaluating at x = 2:

\begin{gathered} g^{\prime}(2)=f^{\prime}(2) \\  \\ \therefore g^{\prime}(2)=8 \end{gathered}

Which mathematical sentence most accurately expresses the information in the problem below? Crystal has 121 compact discs that s
ExtremeBDS [4]

Crystal has 121 compact discs. The total number of boxes required are 5.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Crystal has 121 compact discs that she wants to put into boxes.  

Each of the boxes that she brought home holds 25 discs.  

We have to find how many of these boxes will she need for all of her discs?

Now, we know that, number of boxes required =\frac{\text {total number of discs}}{\text {capacity of one box}}=\frac{121}{25}=4.84=5

Here we took 5 because 0.84 means that box with discs less than 25 still we require a box.  

Hence, the total number of boxes required are 5.

Kamila has a rectangular lawn that measures 80 by 150 feet. She wants to lay gravel made from colored rock in a border, 6 feet w
Zarrin [17]
Part 1) <span>Create a diagram that shows Kamila’s rectangular lawn and the gravel border. Assign variables to any unknown sides and label the diagram

see the attached figure  

Part 2)</span><span>Use your diagram to determine how many square feet of the gravel border will surround the lawn

area of the border=[162*92]-[150*80]----> 14904-12000-----> 2904 ft</span>²

Part 3) <span>Kamila decided that the depth of the gravel needs to be 2 inches. What is the total volume of gravel needed for the border?

we know that
1 ft-------> 12 in
 x--------> 2 in
x=2/12------> x=0.17 ft

volume of gravel needed=area of the border*deep of the gravel
</span>volume of gravel needed=2904*0.17----> 493.68 ft³
<span>
Part 4)</span><span>A large bag of colored rock contains a cubic yard and costs $30. What is the total cost of the rocks needed for the border?
</span>
1 yd³--------> 27 ft³
x---------> 493.68 ft³
x=493.68/27-----> 18.28 yd³

if 1 yd³----------> cost $30
 18.28 yd³------> x
x=18.28*30------> x=$548.53

the answer Part 4) is 
$548.53
