Lily, Louis, and Ben went to an arcade and won tokens for prizes. Louis won 4.5 times as many tokens as Ben. Lily won 8 more tok

lana66690 [7]

<em><u>The expression that describes the number of tickets won by Lily is:</u></em>

a = 8 + 4.5c where "a" is the number of tokens won by Lily and "c" is the number of tokens won by Ben

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Lily, Louis, and Ben went to an arcade and won tokens for prizes

Let "a" be the number of tokens won by Lily

Let "b" be the number of tokens won by Louis

Let "c" be the number of tokens won by Ben

<em><u>Given that Louis won 4.5 times as many tokens as Ben</u></em>

So we can frame a equation as:

number of tokens won by Louis = 4.5 times as many tokens as Ben

number of tokens won by Louis = 4.5 x number of tokens won by Ben

$b = 4.5 \times c$

b = 4.5c

<em><u>Given that Lily won 8 more tokens than Louis</u></em>

number of tokens won by Lily = 8 + number of tokens won by Louis

a = 8 + b

Substituting the value of b = 4.5c in above expression

a = 8 + 4.5c

Thus the expression that describes how many tokens Lily won is found

If the graph is reflected across the y-axis, what will be the equation of the new graph?

Bumek [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle b)y = { 3}^{ - x} + 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a exponential function

$\displaystyle y = {3}^{x} + 1$

we want to figure out the equation of the new graph reflected across the y-axis

remember that,

$\rm\displaystyle (x,y) \xrightarrow{ \text{ reflection over y - axis}}( - x,y)$

let y be $3^x+1$ so,

$\rm\displaystyle (x,y) \xrightarrow{ \text{ reflection over y - axis}}( - x, {3}^{ - x} + 1 )$

hence,

the equation of the new graph

$\displaystyle y = { 3}^{ - x} + 1$
