Answer:

There is no solution to the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the solutions to the problem you can write the situation in an algebraic form.

You have that a number is equal to twice a smaller number plus 3. This can be written as follow:

x=2y+3      (1)

where x is the number and y is the smaller number

Furthermore, the same number x is equal to twice the sum of the smaller number and 1, which can be written as follow:

x=2(y+1)     (2)

To find the solution you equal the equation (1) with (2), and you solve for y:

2y+3=2y+1

3=1

You obtain an inconsistency, hence, the situation of the problem does not have solution

What function is represented below?
Paladinen [302]
By graphing the given options as shown in attached figure
<span>f(x) = (1/4)^x+2   ⇒⇒⇒⇒ The black graph
f(x) = (1/4)^x +2  </span><span>⇒⇒⇒⇒ The red graph
</span> f(x) = (1/4)^x-2    <span><span>⇒⇒⇒⇒ The blue graph
</span></span><span><span /> f(x) = (1/4)^x -2   ⇒⇒⇒⇒ The green graph
</span>

The correct answer will be the blue graph

f(x) =   (\frac{1}{4})^{(x-2)}

Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (_5, 5) and a directrix of y = -1.
mars1129 [50]

Answer: Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

focus = (-5,5)

and a directrix y= -1

Since, equation of parabola in this case will be

(x-h)^2=4.a(y-k)

Now, here

y=k-a=-1\\\\\text { focus =(h,k+a)}\\\\\text{So,} k+a=5\\\\\text{ by solving these two equation , we get }\\\\a=3\text{ and } k=2

So equation will be

(x+5)^2=4\times 3(y-2)\\\\(x+5)^2=12(y-3)\\\\y=\frac{1}{12}(x+5)^2+2

So, option D is correct .
