Answer:

74.948

Step-by-step explanation:

To decrease a number by a percentage, we can simply multiply the number by the reciprocal of the decrease.

To decrease 82 by 8.6 % , we can simply multiply 82 by 91.4%……..

82 x .914= 74.948

Rounded to nearest tenth……..74.9

The point (2, –4) is reflected across the line y = –1. What are the coordinates of the image?

schepotkina [342]

ANSWER

The coordinates of the image are (2,2)

EXPLANATION

The mapping for a reflection across the line y=k is :

$(x,y)\to (x,2k-y)$

We want to find the image of the point (2,-4) after a reflection in the line y=-1.

In this case k=-1.

$(2, - 4)\to (2,2( - 1)- - 4)$

This simplifies to,

$(2, - 4)\to (2, - 2 + 4)$

$(2, - 4)\to (2, 2)$

Hence the image is (2,2)

PLs help 50 PTS!!!!! PLEASE ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form:

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

(h, k) - vertex

The focus is

$\left(h,\ k+\dfrac{1}{4a}\right)$

We have the vertex (2, -5) and the focus (2, -4).

Calculate the value of a using $k+\dfrac{1}{4a}$

k = -5

$-5+\dfrac{1}{4a}=-4$ add 5 to both sides

$\dfrac{1}{4a}=1$ multiply both sides by 4

$4\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{1}{4\!\!\!\!\diagup_1a}=4$

$\dfrac{1}{a}=4\to a=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Substitute

$a=\dfrac{1}{4},\ h=2,\ k=-5$

to the vertex form of an equation of a parabola:

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x-2)^2-5$

The standard form:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

Convert using

$(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x^2-2(x)(2)+2^2)-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x^2-4x+4)-5$

use the distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

$y=\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(x^2)+\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(-4x)+\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(4)-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x+1-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x-4$

I NEED HELP ASAP. PLEASE TELL ME WHERE I WOULD GRAPH AND WHERE I WOULD SHADE. ALSO IF THE LINE WOULD BE SOLID OR NOT. 20 POINTS

luda_lava [24]

The first one is a dashed line and the second one is solid. Two points for the first one is (1,4) and (0,3). For the second one two points are (0,-3) and (1,0). From build the lines. Finally the first one is where y is greater so shade above the line with points like ( 10,10) or (7,8) in the shaded region. For the second one since y is less or equal to shade below the line with points like (-2,-10) or (-1,-5).
