Answer:

1. Type of function: absolute value function

2. The three transformations from the parent function f(x) = |x| are:

Translation 3 units to the left
Vertical stretch with a scale factor of 2
Translation 5 units downward

Explanation:

1. Type of function

The parent function |x| is the absolute value function. It returns the positive value of the argument (x).

Thus the function f(x) = 2|x + 3| - 5 is also an absolute value function.

It returns the positive value of x + 3, then multiplyes it by 2, and finally subtract 5.

This is a piecewise function.

For the values of x ≥ - 3, the output is 2(x +3) - 5 = 2x + 6 - 5 = 2x + 1.

For the values of x < - 3, the output is 2 (-x - 3) - 5 = -2x - 6 - 5 = -2x - 11.

The vertex of this function is at x = - 3: 2 (- 3 + 3) - 5 = 2(0) - 5 = 0 - 5 = 5.

Thus the vertex is (-3, 5).

2. Transformations from the parent function f(x) = |x|.

When you know the parent function and the daughter function you can know the transformations done of the former to get the later by some simple rules.

a) Translation in the horizontal direction.

When you add a positive value to the argument the function is translated to the left.

Thus, when you add 3 to x, |x| becomes |x + 3| and it is a translation 3 units to the left.

b) Vertical stretch

When you multiply the argument by a constant, the function stretches vertically.

Thus, when you multiply |x + 3| by 2, to get 2|x + 3|, the function is vertically stretched by a scale factor of 2.

c) Vertical translation

When you subtract a constant value from the function, you translate it downward.

Thus, when you subtract 5 from 2|x + 3| - 5, you translate the function 5 units downward.

please answer fast!!! drag each figure to show if it is similar to the figure shown or why it is not similar

igomit [66]

Answer:

The similar figures are shown in the attached drawing created with Microsoft Visio;

The similar figures are the rectangles in figures 2, and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is a rectangle with dimensions of 3 yd. by 9 yd., therefore the length = 3 × The width of the rectangle

1) The 9 yd. by 18 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 2 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

2) The 3 yd. by 1 yd. figure is a rectangle with the width = 3 × The length of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is similar to the given rectangle

3) The figure is a trapezium, while the given figure is a rectangle, therefore, they are not similar

4) The 6 yd. by 3 yd. figure is a rectangle with the width = 2 × The length of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

5) The 6 yd. by 18 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 3 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is similar to the given rectangle

6) The 2 yd. by 8 yd. figure is a rectangle with the length = 4 × The width of the rectangle, therefore, the figure is not similar to the given rectangle

If a rectangular painting is 3 feet long and 5/6 foot wide what is the area of the painting

natka813 [3]

Answer:

A = 2 1/2 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by

A = l*w

A = 3 * 5/6

A = 5/2 ft^2

A = 2 1/2 ft^2
