The answer is D, 34

If 4 of the packages contain 7 pens, that means there, 28 pens are total.

Because they contained either 3 or 7 pens, I would assume the remaining 2 packages of 6 total that Steve had bought would have to have 3 pens. 

3*2 is equal to 6

28 + 6 = 34

The answer is D.
Calculate how many pens he bought for only the bags with 7 pens each. You get 28.
Next, since you know there are 2 bags left that each must have 3 pens only, calculate how many pens he bought in only those 2 bags. You get 6.
Add the 2 values. 28+6 is 34, so your answer is choice D.

Write the equation of the graph obtained when the graph of y=1/x is compressed vertically by a factor of 0.25, translated 4 unit
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: The equation is y = 0.25/(x - 4) + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a function y = f(x)

A compression means that we multiply the function by a factor smaller than 1.

Then the vertical compression by a factor of 0.25 is:

y = 0.25*f(x)

a translation by A units to the right, means that we need to valuate the function in x - A.

So now we have:

y = 0.25*f(x - 4)

A translation in the y-axis means that we need to add a constant to the equation, then if we tralate it by 3 units up, we have:

y = 0.25*f(x - A) + 3

Then, if f(x) = 1/x

Our new equation is:

y = 0.25/(x - 4) + 3

PLEASE HELP 100 POINTS<br> write an equation of the horizontal line that passes through (-7,-10)
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

y + 10 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of horizontal line is zero (0)

m = 0

By point slope form of a line.

y-y_1 =m(x - x_1) \\  \\ y - ( - 10) = 0 \{x - ( - 7) \} \\  \\ y + 10 = 0 \{x + 7\} \\  \\y + 10 = 0 \\  \\

VikaD [51]

Answer:

y = k/(x+2) squared

substitute y and x to find the value of k.

k =50

nxt used the value of k with same formula:.

y= 50/ (8+2) squared

y =1/2
