Answer:

Reflection across x-axis:

(x, y) \rightarrow (x, -y)

Vertically stretch:

A function y=a f(x) is vertically stretch by a factor a > 1 is that of parent function y=f(x)

Given the graph: f(x) = -2(3)^x

We will make a table values for a few values of x.

then we will graph the given function.

x                f(x)

-2            -0.2222..

-1             -0.6666..

0                 -2

1                  -6

2                 -18

3                 -54

Note that as x increases, f(x) decreases

Now, using these points (-2, -0.2222..), (-1, -0.666..), (0, -2), (1, -6) , (2, -18) and (3, -54)

Plot the graph of the given function as shown below:

We observe that the curve is that of f(x) =(3)^x except it is vertically stretch by a factor 2 and reflection across x-axis.

Solution:

\text{Given: }f(x)=-2(3)^x

We are an exponential function.

y=ab^x

If a<0 and b>1 then graph is decreasing.

If a>0 and b<1 then graph is decreasing.

If a<0 and b<1 then graph is increasing.

If a>0 and b>1 then graph is increasing.

\text{We have a function }f(x)=-2(3)^x

Here a=-2<0 and b=3>1 therefore, f(x) is decreasing.

Horizontal asymptote , y=0

x-intercept: Doesn't not exist

y-intercept: (0,-2)

Using above information we will draw the graph f(x)

We make table of x and y for different value of x

  x        y

-2       -0.22

 -1       -0.67

 0          -2

 1           -6

 2           -18

Plot these points on graph and join the points.

 Please see the attachment to see the graph.

Convert these unlike fractions to equivalent like fractions and add them. You must use the LCD to get the answer correct. If pos
Kamila [148]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are: \frac{1}{5} and \frac{2}{3}. Let's take a look at the denominators: 5 and 3. The LCD of 5 and 3 is 15. 5x3=15, 3x5=15. So now we would multiply the denominators to make them the same number like this: \frac{5}{15} and \frac{10}{15}. Remember that if you multiply the denominator by a certain number, you must multiply the numerator by the same number as well. For example, in \frac{2}{3}, we multiply 3 by 5 and 2 by 5. Same number. Now with that out of the way, let's work on the equation: \frac{1}{5} + \frac{2}{3}. We know it is the same as \frac{5}{15} and \frac{10}{15}. So now all we do is add the numerators together: 5+10=15 or \frac{15}{15}. Now we have to reduce the fraction. \frac{15}{15} can be reduced to 3 by dividing 15 by 5=3. The final fraction is \frac{3}{3} or can be simply put as 3 since 3/3 is a whole number. That's it - you're done!

find three consecutive even integers such that the sum of the smallest integer and twice the median integer is 20more than the l
3241004551 [841]
X = smallest; x + 2 = middle, and x + 4 = largest
x + 2(x+2) = 20 + x + 4
x + 2x + 4=24 +x
3x + 4 = 24 + x
2x = 20
x = 10
so the three integers are 10, 12, and 14

\\ \sf\longmapsto n+10=60/2

\\ \sf\longmapsto n+10=30

\\ \sf\longmapsto n=30-10

\\ \sf\longmapsto n=20
