What is the vertex of y=3|x+1|-2

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

(-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, the absolute value function can be expressed like so:

f(x) = y = a|x-h|+k, where vertex: (h,k)

Rewriting our function here ever so slightly gives us: y = 3|x-(-1)|+(-2)

So the vertex is at (-1,-2)

If 16 is added to one-third of a number, the result is three times the number. What is the number?

AnnZ [28]

First set up the equation based on the description.

$\frac{1}{3}$ x + 16 = 3x

Use subtraction to get the "x"s on one side of the equation. You can next subtract $\frac{1}{3}$ x from both sides.

16 = $\frac{8}{3}$ x

Now you can multiply both sides of the equation by $\frac{3}{8}$ to solve for x

x = 6

F(x) = 5x – 20 find f(6), f(10), and f(20)

damaskus [11]

Answer:

f(6) = 10, f(10) = 30, f(20) = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the values into the equation and compute. 5*6 - 20 = 10, 5*10 - 20 = 30, 5*20 - 20 = 80.
