The graph of y = x^2 -3 is translated in 4 units to the left of the graph to give the graph A
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) b = 8, c = 13

b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let us talk about the transformation

  • If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new  function g(x) = - f(x)
  • If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then the new  function g(x) = f(-x)
  • If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)
  • If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

In the given question

∵ y = x² - 3

∵ The graph is translated 4 units to the left

→ That means substitute x by x + 4 as 4th rule above

∴ y = (x + 4)² - 3

→ Solve the bracket to put it in the form of y = ax² + bx + c

∵ (x + 4)² = (x + 4)(x + 4) = (x)(x) + (x)(4) + (4)(x) + (4)(4)

∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 4x + 4x + 16

→ Add the like terms

∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 8x + 16

→ Substitute it in the y above

∴ y = x² + 8x + 16 - 3

→ Add the like terms

∴ y = x² + 8x + 13

∴ b = 8 and c = 13

a) b = 8, c = 13

∵ The graph A is reflected in the x-axis

→ That means y will change to -y as 1st rule above

∴ -y = (x² - 3)

→ Multiply both sides by -1 to make y positive

∴ y = -(x² - 3)

→ Multiply the bracket by the negative sign

∴ y = -x² + 3

b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3

The value of y is directly proportional to the value of x. When x=3.5, the value of y is 14. What is the value of y when x = 28?
inna [77]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 14

14 x 2 = 28

Therefore:

3.5 x 2 = 7

can someone please help? And can you also explain how to do it, because I forgot the steps on how to do it ​
alexdok [17]

Answer:

option 3) EF= -7 FG= -7

Step-by-step explanation

X= 1/2

EF= 2X-8

    = 2 X 1/2 -8

    =1 - 8

EF = -7

FG= 4X -9

     = 4X 1/2

     2 - 9

FG     = -7

Use technology and the given confidence level and sample data to find the confidence interval for the population mean mu . assum
attashe74 [19]

To solve for the confidence interval for the population mean mu, we can use the formula:

Confidence interval = x ± z * s / sqrt (n)

where x is the sample mean, s is the standard deviation, and n is the sample size

 

At 95% confidence level, the value of z is equivalent to:

z = 1.96

 

Therefore substituting the given values into the equation:

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.96 * 5.8 / sqrt (51)

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.59

Confidence interval = 1.41, 4.59

 

Therefore the population mean mu has an approximate range or confidence interval from 1.41 kg to 4.59 kg.

Calculate the simple interest on a loan of $3500 for a period of 6 months at a yearly rate of 5%. (10 POINTS!!)​
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

$3,799.20

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your formula is intended to be ...

M = Pm(1 + m)^(na)/((1 + m)^(na) - 1)

where M is the monthly payment, m is the monthly interest rate, n is 12, and a is the number of years.

This formula gives written below:

M = 3500·(.08/12)·(1 + (.08/12))^(12·2)/((1 + (.08/12))^(12·2) -1) ≈ 158.30

The total payback will be the sum of 24 of these payments is written below;

payback = 24×$158.30 = $3,799.20
