Answer:

Deductive Reasoning

Step-by-step explanation:

We take the statement as true,

"...all dogs in the kennel are collies..."

we also take

- collies are a type of dog

and

- Rover is a dog

So if Rover is a dog, and all dogs in the kennel are collies, then Rover is a collie, because he is a dog and inside the kennel (after we take the statement all dogs in the kennel are collies).

This type of reasoning follows the Deductive Reasoning pattern, if A = B, and B is C then A is also C.

While inductive takes that if A = B, and C is B just like D is B, then E is also B.

How does the graph of f(x)=3lx+2l+4 relate to its parent function?

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \textit{function transformations}
\\ \quad \\\\

\begin{array}{rllll} 
% left side templates
f(x)=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
y=&{{ A}}({{ B}}x+{{ C}})+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}\sqrt{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}}(\mathbb{R})^{{{ B}}x+{{ C}}}+{{ D}}
\\ \quad \\
f(x)=&{{ A}} sin\left({{ B }}x+{{ C}} \right)+{{ D}}
\end{array}$

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}
% right side info
\bullet \textit{ stretches or shrinks horizontally by } {{ A}}\cdot {{ B}}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ flips it upside-down if }{{ A}}\textit{ is negative}
\\\\
\bullet \textit{ horizontal shift by }\frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\\
\qquad if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is negative, to the right}\\\\
\qquad if\ \frac{{{ C}}}{{{ B}}}\textit{ is positive, to the left}\\\\
\end{array}$

$\bf \begin{array}{llll}


\bullet \textit{ vertical shift by }{{ D}}\\
\qquad if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is negative, downwards}\\\\
\qquad if\ {{ D}}\textit{ is positive, upwards}\\\\
\bullet \textit{ period of }\frac{2\pi }{{{ B}}}
\end{array}$

now, with that template above in mind, let's see this one

$\bf parent\implies f(x)=|x|
\\\\\\
\begin{array}{lllcclll}
f(x)=&3|&1x&+2|&+4\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&A&B&C&D
\end{array}$

A=3, B=1, shrunk by AB or 3 units, about 1/3
C=2, horizontal shift by C/B or 2/1 or just 2, to the left
D=4, vertical shift upwards of 4 units

denpristay [2]

Answer:

D) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

−9 + 12 + (unknown) + −8 = −1

Start by going through and testing each option

−9 + 12 + 2 + −8 =

3 + 2 + −8 =

5 + −8 =

−3

−3 ≠ −1

A) 2 is not possible.

−9 + 12 + −2 + −8 =

3 + −2 + −8 =

1 + −8 =

−7

−7 ≠ −1

B) −2 is not possible.

−9 + 12 + −4 + −8 =

3 + −4 + −8 =

−1 + −8 =

−9

−9 ≠ −1

C) −4 is not possible.

From this, D is looking like the answer. But to be sure, test it.

−9 + 12 + 4 + −8 =

3 + 4 + −8 =

7 + −8 =

−1

−1 = −1

D) 4 is the answer.
