F(x)=3x+1 (preimage)
g(x)=x+1 (image)
it is undergoing a reduction/compression with translation.
In general, a linear transformation is
g(x) = a*f(bx-h)+k
h=horizontal translation (right if h>0, left if h<0, note formula has minus sign)
k=vertical translation (up if k>0, down if k<0)
a=vertical stretching, (stretching if |a|>1, compression if |a|<1, also, if a<0, a reflection across the x-axis is performed)
b=horizontal stretching (|b|>0 compression, |b|<0 stretching, also, if b<0, a reflection across the y-axis is performed)
In this case,
g(x)=f(x/3), so it is a horizontal stretching.
Note that the y-intercept remains unchanged.
2.73972603 or ... you can round to the nearest tenth... 2.7
We can solve for the length of side a to the nearest whole number using the Laws of Cosines such as the formula is shown below:
a²=b²+c²-2bcCosA
Solving for the value of a, we have:
a²=10²+14²-2(10)(14)cos54°
a²=131.42
a=11.46
The answer is 11.46 or 11.5.
