Answer: Hello mate!

We know that you have a graph of y vs t, and we know that this is an "altitude" graph.

Then we can assume that the y represents the altitude, and t represents the time, and this graph shows the altitude of something as a function of the time.

the t-intercept means that the graph passes through the y-axis, this means that, in this point, y is equal to zero:

Then, at the t-intercept, we have y = 0, which means that at this time (where is the intersection) the altitude is equal to zero.

The y-intercept means that the graph passes through the y-axis, where t = 0

this is the initial value of the altitude, where t = 0 usually denotes the time where we start to measure.

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

Can someone help me im confused....PLZZZZ

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width )

perimeter of rectangle A = 2(7) + 2(5) = 14 + 10 = 24 in

perimeter of rectangle B = 2(4x - 3) + 2x = 8x - 6 + 2x = 10x - 6 in

Equating the two gives

10x - 6 = 24 ( add 6 to both sides )

10x = 30 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 3

Thus

length of rectangle B = 4x - 3 = 4(3) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9 in

Width of rectangle B = x = 3 in
