Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A ' = (-2, -3)
B ' = (0, -3)
C ' = (-1, 1)
=======================================================
Explanation:
To apply an x axis reflection, we simply change the sign of the y coordinate from positive to negative, or vice versa. The x coordinate stays as is.
Algebraically, the reflection rule used can be written as
Applying this rule to the three given points will mean....
Point A = (-2, 3) becomes A ' = (-2, -3)
Point B = (0, 3) becomes B ' = (0, -3)
Point C = (-1, -1) becomes C ' = (-1, 1)
The diagram is provided below.
Side note: Any points on the x axis will stay where they are. That isn't the case here, but its for any future problem where it may come up. This only applies to x axis reflections.
The question is kind of vague in my opinion.
the best measurement to report with the scale in my opinion would be tens of pounds. my reasoning is because the decimal place would still prove importance with numbers under one hundred. above one hundred pounds and the decimal place becomes kind of pointless.
I hope I answered your question. though i'm sorry if i didn't
Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
The goal of course is to solve for x. Right now there are 2 of them, one on each side of the equals sign, and they are both in exponential positions. We have to get them out of that position. The way we do that is by taking the natural log of both sides. The power rule then says we can move the exponents down in front.
becomes, after following the power rule:
x ln(2) = (x + 1) ln(3). We will distribute on the right side to get
x ln(2) = x ln(3) + 1 ln(3). The goal is to solve for x, so we will get both of them on the same side:
x ln(2) - x ln(3) = ln(3). We can now factor out the common x on the left to get:
x(ln2 - ln3) = ln3. The rule that "undoes" that division is the quotient rule backwards. Before that was a subtraction problem it was a division, so we put it back that way and get:
. We can factor out the ln from the left to simplify a bit:
![x[ln(\frac{2}{3})]=ln(3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5Bln%28%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%29%5D%3Dln%283%29)
. Divide both sides by ln(2/3) to get the x all alone:
On your calculator, you will find that this is approximately -2.709
