Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio 1 + 3 + 4 = 8 parts

8 parts represents 100%, hence

1 part = $\frac{100}{8}$ = 12.5% ← Andy's percentage of the total

What are the coordinates of the image of C if it is reflected across the x-axis?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

(-2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

~When reflecting a point of the x-axis, the x value (or first number inside the parenthesis) does not change.

The reason the x-value does not change is because you are reflecting over the x-axis, making the point go up or down. That will change the y-value but the x-value only changes if you move to the left or the right. In this case, you can see that the point's x-value is -2, so that will not change. It's current y-value however is -4. When reflecting over an axis, the number that is changing (in this case the y-value) will just be flipped from positive to negative, or vise versa. In this case, -4 will be reflected to be 4, making point C reflected over the x-axis (-2, 4).

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3). The triangle is translated 4 units down and 3 units left. Which rule r

crimeas [40]

Option C: $(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4) ; (5,-1)$ is the coordinates of C after translation.

Explanation:

The triangle ABC has vertices at A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3).

Also, given that the triangle is translated 4 units down and 3 units left.

We need to determine the coordinates of the vertex C after translation.

The triangle is shifted 4 units down means subtracting 4 units from the y - coordinate of the graph.

Thus, it can be written as $y-4$

Also, the triangle is shifted 3 units left means subtracting 3 units from the x - coordinate of the graph.

Thus, it can be written as $x-3$

Thus, the translation is given by

$(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4)$

The vertices of C after translation can be determined by

$(8, 3) \rightarrow(8-3, 3-4)\implies (5,-1)$

Thus, $(x, y) \rightarrow(x-3, y-4) ; (5,-1)$ is the coordinates of C after translation.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of 2?

Trava [24]

Answer:

y=4x+2 or f(x)=4x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the equation format for a line is y=mx+b, the slope is m and the y-intercept is b. So all you have to do is fill it out to get y=4x+2. Or the other way I listed the equation is right too. Hope this helps!

“The sum of half a number and 12 is 6”

lianna [129]

<u>Solution</u> :

Let, the number be A

Given, A/2 + 12 = 6

⇒ (A + 24)/2 = 6

⇒ A + 24 = 12

⇒ A = 12 - 24

⇒ A = - 12

∴ the required number is (- 12). (Ans.)
