Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first convert this to numbers. When a number is decreased by a certain amount, that is the same as saying that something is subtracted from it. Therefore:

a-7=2

Add 7 to both sides:

a-7+7=2+7

a=9

Hope this helps!

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number (Let's call it x) has been subtracted by 7 (x - 7) then to find the previous number you just do the opposite. Let's call the end result y. 2 + 7 = x (Or y + 7 = x). <u>2 + 7 = 9.</u>

How does the graph of f(x) = (x – 8)^3 + 4 compare to the parent function g(x) = x^3?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Therefore, the graph of f(x) = (x – 8)^3 + 4, is the parent graph [g(x) = x^3] transformed 8 units to the right, and transformed 4 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall,

If f(x) is a parent function:

• Horizontal shift: If h is the horizontal shift then f(x+h)) represents a graph which is formed when the parent graph is transformed to left (when h>0) or to right (when h<0))

• Vertical shift: If h is the vertical shift then f(x)+h represents a graph which is formed when the parent graph is transformed to up(when h>0) or to down (when h<0).

Therefore, the graph of f(x) = (x – 8)^3 + 4, is the parent graph transformed 8 units to the right, and transformed 4 units up.

Which is longest 90 centimeters, 40 meters, 30 kilometers, 10 meters, 40 millimeters
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

30 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

I just looked at it and knew it was 30 k as the longest

This is how I knew:

let's convert every unit into meters

90cm = 0.9m

  40m = 40m

30km = 30000m

40mm = 0.04

easy :)

good luck

Find the derivative of y with respect to the appropriate variable<br> y=cos^-1(x^2)
Ksju [112]

Answer:

a. Practically speaking, you compute the differential in much the same way you compute a derivative via implicit differentiation, but you omit the variable with respect to which you are differentiating.

Aside: Compare this to what happens when you differentiate both sides with respect to some other independent parameter, say :

b. This is just a matter of plugging
