Answer:

The absolute value can be graphed using the points around the vertex (-2, 0), (-4, 2), (-3, 1), (-1, 1), (0, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The find the x coordinate of the vertex, set the inside of the absolute value x + 2 equal to 0. In this case, x + 2 = 0.

x + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

x = -2

Replace the variable x with -2 in the expression.

y = |(-2) + 2|

The absolute value vertex is (-2, 0).

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.

For each x value, there is on y value. Select few z values from the domain. It would be more useful to select the values so that they are around the x value of the absolute value vertex.

Substitute the x value -4 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (-4,2).

y=2

Substitute the x value -3 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (-3,1).

y=1

Substitute the x value 0 into f(x) = |x+2|. In this case, the point is (0,2).

y=2

You can find the graph in the attachment.

A bird seed feeder has the approximate shape of a cone with a diameter of 12 centimeters and a height of 25.5 centimeters. What

timurjin [86]

The equation for the volume of a cone is:
$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$
where V = volume of the cone, r = radius of the circular base, and h = height of the cone.

You are told that the height, h = 25.5 cm. You are also told that the diameter is <span>12 centimeters. Remember that the diameter of a circle is just twice the radius. Divide 12 by 2 to get the radius: r =12/2 = 6 cm.

Since you know </span>h = 25.5 cm and r = 6 cm, plug these values into your equation for volume of a cone and solve for V, volume:
$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h\\
V= \frac{1}{3} \pi (6) ^{2} (25.5)\\
V \approx 961.33$

Today, the mailman sorted 57 letters during his first hour of work, 69 letters during his second hour, 81 letters during his thi

mars1129 [50]

The answer is 93

If we sorted out the number of each hours, the sequence will look like this

57 _ 69 _ 81 _ x _ 105

(in which x is the fourth hour of work)

We can see from the sequence that each hours, the mailman add additional 12 letters.
(69 - 57 = 12)
(81 - 69 = 12) . . . . proof

So, the amount of letters on the fourth hour would be:
81 letters + 12 letters = 93 Letters

Y=-×+1 and y=2×+4 how many solutions when graphed

dedylja [7]

Answer:

One solution (-1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these two linear equations have different slopes, different y-intercepts, and are indeed linear, these equations will only have one crossing when graphed, and hence one solution.

To find that solution, we can simply set the equations equal to each other.

y = -x + 1

y = 2x + 4

-x + 1 = 2x + 4

-3 = 3x

-1 = x

Now plug that value back into one of the equations:

y = -x + 1

y = -(-1) + 1

y = 2

So now you know the crossing for these two equations occurs at (-1,2).

Cheers.
