Answer:

A relation is a function if x values never repeat, so every input will only have one output. If the function is graphed you can do the vertical line test, a relation passes if you can draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph and it only intersects with the relation once.

Solve for x:

6x = 3.75x + 54

2.25x = 54

x = 24

Hello plz help I have 5 F’s

brilliants [131]

I can understand why it might be tough, so I'm here to help.

Translation is as simple as moving the points as told.

For example, do you see where point T currently resides? From there you'd move it 4 units to the left and 5 down, where it'd end up at (-4,-3). Now do the same for every point.

Point T would end up at (-4,-3)

Point S would end up at (-2,-2)

Point R would end up at (0,-3)

A ball is thrown from an initial height of 5 feet with an initial velocity of 32 ft/s. The height h (in feet) after t seconds is

Aleks [24]

Find the derivative and set equal to 0 (the speed of the object is zero when the object is at max height and s hanging direction)
-32t+32=0

So the object hits a max at t=1

Plug that into original equation and get h=21 feet
