Answer: The correct option is D, i.e., 15 units.
Explanation:
It is given that the length of segment TR can be represented by 5x-4.
From figure it is noticed that the side TR and RV is equal and the length of segment RV is 2x+5. So,
The value of x is 3, so the length of side RV is,
In triangle TRS and angle VRS,
TR=VR
RS=RS (common side)
By SAS rule of congruence triangle,
Therefore the side TS and VS are congruent sides.
From figure it is noticed that the length of side TS is 6x-3, therefore the length of side VS is also 6x-3.
Hence, the length of side VS is 15 units and option D is correct.
Answer:
f(x) = -√(x-4) + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Start with the basic function: f(x) = √x.
This would be the top half of a horizontal parabola opening to the right (always positive).
(b) The range is y < 2. This includes negative numbers, so the function must be f(x) = -√x.
(c) The function starts at x = -4. We must shift it four units to the left. We do that by adding four units to x. The function must be f(x) = -√(x + 4). The domain is x > -4.
(d) The function starts at y = 2. We must shift it up two units. We do that by adding two units to y. The function must be f(x) = -√(x+4) + 2. The range is y < 2.
The figure below is the graph of f(x) = -√(x+4) + 2.
