$\bf 4x-3y=24\implies 4x-24=3y\implies \cfrac{4x-24}{3}=y \\\\\\ \cfrac{4x}{3}-\cfrac{24}{3}=y\implies \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{4}{3}}x-8=y~\hspace{5em} \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

Identify the translation of the parent function for y = |x + 8|. 8 units up 8 units right 8 units down 8 units left

padilas [110]

Hi there

The parent function is the following:
$y = |x|$

We need to translate the function 8 units left to get the function: $y = |x + 8|$

Therefore the answer is: 8 units left.

If c varies directly as (r + 1) and c = 8, when r= 3, calculate the value of r when c= 20.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

r = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that c varies directly as (r + 1) then the equation relating them is

c = k(r + 1) ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition c = 8 when r = 3, then

8 = k(3 + 1) = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

2 = k

c = 2(r + 1) ← equation of variation

When c = 20, then

20 = 2(r + 1) ← divide both sides by 2

10 = r + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

9 = r

Compute the difference quotient, StartFraction f (x plus h )minus f (x )Over h EndFraction f(x+h)−f(x) h, for the function f (

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The difference quotient for $f(x)=3x^2$ is $3 h + 6 x$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference quotient is a formula that computes the slope of the secant line through two points on the graph of <em>f</em>. These are the points with x-coordinates x and x + h. The difference quotient is used in the definition the derivative and it is given by

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$
