Answer:  The required width of the park is 3 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a 5 mile jogging path diagonal divides a rectangular park in half and the park is 4 miles long.

We are to find the width of the park.

As shown in the attached figure below, the diagonal BD divides the rectangle ABCD into two equal parts,

where length DA = 5 miles, BD = 4 miles and AB = width = ?

Since each angle of a rectangle is right-angle, so triangle ABD will be a right-angled triangle.

Using Pythagoras theorem in triangle ABD, we have

BD^2=AB^2+DA^2\\\\\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{BD^2-DA^2}\\\\\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{5^2-4^2}\\\\\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{25-16}\\\\\Rightarrow AB=\sqrt{9}\\\\\Rightarrow AB=3.

Thus, the required width of the park is 3 miles.

Answer:

I got y = 10

or

y = 24

or the answer is y = -5x since the 4 stays the same but the -5x changes

I feel like you have to replace with x with the numbers

Let f(x)= lxl-3 Write a function g whose graph is a translation 5 units down of the graph of f.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

If the function "f(x) = lxl-3" were translated five units down the graph, g(x) would be lxl-8.

We must be familiar with function transformation and different forms of transformation in order to properly understand the question. When a function is transformed, the graph's curve either "moves to the left/right/up/down," "expands or compresses," or "reflects" to create a new function. For instance, by simply pushing the graph of the function g(x) = x2 up by 7 units, the graph of the function f(x) = x2 + 7 is generated. It is advantageous to convert a function since it saves us from having to create a new function from begin. Function transformations typically fall into one of three categories: 1. 2nd translation 3. dilation Reflection

The given query is about Translation of Function. To create a new function, translation moves the curve up or down and modifies its position. Translation comes in two flavours. Vertical and horizontal translation.

When the curve changes, "the function" shifts upward or downward. By doing this, a function of the form y = f(x) is transformed into f(x) ± k, where k stands for the vertical translation. In this case, the function moves up by k units if k > 0.

The function goes down by 'k' units if k < 0.

The curve in the given problem goes down by 5 units, so k = 5. Which is a vertical translation scenario. Consequently, y = f(x) becomes f(x) - k = g(x) and g(x) = f(x) - k = lxl-3 -5 = lxl - 8.

Therefore the new function after translation is g(x) =  lxl - 8.
