The answer is x = 6
Explanation:
First, you must assume that 5x-10=20. Next, you add 10 to 20, which makes the equation 5x=30. Next, divide 30 by 5, which then makes the equation x=6. When you substitute 6 in the original equation, it works, because 5(6)-10 equals 20.
1/5
Any number that can be written in fraction form is a rational number, so numbers like -1/8, 0, 1/4, etc. all work.
The horizontal stretch is the correct answer. A period is the distance on the x-axis that it takes for the tangent or cotangent function to repeat itself. Stretching it out horizontally will lengthen that distance and therefore change the period.
