y = ax + b
We observe that the given equation is the generic equation of a line.
Where,
a = represents the slope of the line. That is, the rate of change of the given function. (in this case it is constant).
b = is the cut point with the y axis.
The general form of the geometric sequence is
, where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1. Our formula then looks like this:
. Simplify it to
. Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072. C is your answer.
Answer:
g(f(x)) = 6x - 14
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
g(x) = 3x + 1
f(x) = 2x - 5
<u>Step 2: Find</u>
- Substitute: g(f(x)) = 3(2x - 5) + 1
- Distribute 3: g(f(x)) = 6x - 15 + 1
- Combine like terms: g(f(x)) = 6x - 14
Answer:
$127.75 a week
Step-by-step explanation:
first you subtract 116.75 from 500 so you get 383.25
second you divide 383.25 by 3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) goes through the point (0, 1).
g(x) goes through (2, 1) for the same y value.
that means g(x) is f(x) translated 2 units to the right.
but we could also look at the same x value (0).
then g(x) goes through (0, -5).
and that means g(x) is f(x) translated 6 units down.
since it is a line function, shifting it left/right or up/down makes no difference to the shape or position of the new curve itself.
as it looks like you don't have 6 in the drop-down menu, then 2 units (to the right) is the desired correct result.
that means g(x) = f(x-2) = 3(x-2) + 1 = 3x - 6 + 1 = 3x - 5
and that is what the graph is showing us.
