Answer:  The correct option is

(C) x = -2, x = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given the following function :

f(x)=3|x-2|+6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We are to find the values of x for which f(x) = 18.

From equation (i), if f(x) = 18, we get

f(x)=18\\\\\Rightarrow 3|x-2|+6=18\\\\\Rightarrow 3|x-2|=18-6\\\\\Rightarrow 3|x-2|=12\\\\\Rightarrow |x-2|=\dfrac{12}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow |x-2|=4\\\\\Rightarrow x-2=4,~~~~~x-2=-4\\\\\Rightarrow x=6,~~~~~~~\Rightarrow x=-2.

Thus, the required solution is x = -2 and x = 6.

Option (C) is CORRECT.

Determine a series of transformations that would map polygon ABCDE onto polygon A’B’C’D’E
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Reflected across x-axis followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 2 about the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's clear from the graph,

Polygon ABCDE is reflected across x-axis then dilated so that it overlaps polygon A'B'C'D'E'

Let's choose a point A having coordinates (-2, -1)

By reflecting point A across x-axis,

Rule to be followed for the reflection,

(x, y) → (x, -y)

By this rule, coordinates of the image point A will be,

A(-2, -1) → A"(-2, 1)

Now point A"(-2, 1) has been dilated by a scale factor = k to form an image points A'(-4, 2).

Rule for the dilation of a point about the origin is,

A"(x, y) → A'(kx, ky)

A"(-2, 1) → A'(-2k, k)

Since, coordinates of point A' are (-4, -2),

Therefore, -2k = -4

k = 2

k = 2

Hence, polygon ABCDE was reflected across x-axis followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 2 about the origin to form polygon A'B'C'D'E'.

Which of the following numbers doesn't belong? Why?​
algol [13]

Answer:

36 most likely

Step-by-step explanation:

4, 8, 16, 32, 64 is a pattern. You multiply by 2 to get the next term. I would think 36 doesn't belong for this reason.
