Describe the graph of y=3/4x-12 as compared to the graph of y=1/x

Mathematics

Eddi Din [679]3 years ago

Answer:

Parent function is compressed by a factor of 3/4 and shifted to right by 3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to describe the transformation of function y=\frac{3}{4x-12} as compared to the graph of y=\frac{1}{x}.

We can write our transformed function as:

y=\frac{3}{4(x-3)}

y=\frac{3}{4}*\frac{1}{(x-3)}

Now let us compare our transformed function with parent function.

Let us see rules of transformation.  

f(x-a)\rightarrow\text{Graph shifted to the right by a units},

f(x+a)\rightarrow\text{Graph shifted to the left by a units},

Scaling of a function: a*f(x)

If a>1 , so function is stretched vertically.

If 0<a<1 , so function is compressed vertically.

As our parent function is multiplied by a scale factor of 3/4 and 3/4 is less than 1, so our parent function is compressed vertically by a factor of 3/4.

As 3 is being subtracted from x, so our parent function is shifted to right by 3 units or a horizontal shift to right by 3 units.

Therefore, our parent graph is compressed by a factor of 3/4 and shifted to right by 3 units to get our new graph.

Please solve the equation (15m + 3)/2 = -6
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

m = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{15m+3}{2} = - 6

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

15m + 3 = - 12 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

15m = - 15 ( divide both sides by 15 )

m = - 1

18,000 amounts to 21,600 in 4 years at simple interest. Find the sum of
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

\$20,400

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

A=P(1+rt)

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

step 1

Find the rate of interest

in this problem we have

t=4\ years\\ P=\$18,000\\ A=\$21,600\\r=?

substitute in the formula above and solve for r

\$21,600=\$18,000(1+4r)

1.2=(1+4r)

4r=1.2-1

r=0.2/4=0.05

The rate of interest is 5\%

step 2

Find the sum of  money that will amount to 25,500 in 5 years, at the same rate of interest

in this part we have

t=5\ years\\ P=?\\ A=\$25,500\\r=0.05

substitute in the formula above and solve for P

\$25,500=P(1+0.05*5)

P=\$25,500/(1.25)=\$20,400
