Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

so lets take "x" as the first of these consecutive numbers

so since these numbers are even we have to skip every other numper so instead of doing x+1,x+2,x+3 like we normally do for consecutive numbers, we will do x+2,x+4,x+6 etc.

x+x+2+x+4+x+6=36

4x+12=36

4x=24

x=6

Hope this helps!

Here, We can see the x-coordinates changing their sign in each instances, so the reflection would be over y-axis about the origin.

In short, Your Answer would be: Option D) y = 0

Write a rule y=f(x) that would produce the graph.

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

y = | x+2 | -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function is shifted left 2 units and down 1. That makes it ...

y = abs(x+2) -1

Using the usual symbols for absolute value:

y = |x+2| -1

_____

The translation transformation is ...

y = f(x -a) +b

to translate the graph of f(x) right by "a" units and up by "b" units. Here, we have a translation left 2 and down 1, so a=-2, b=-1. The original function is the absolute value function in this case.
