Answer:</h3>
4. -3
5. 3

Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
4. For x > -2, the value of a is the slope of the line. The line goes down 3 units for each 1 to the right, so the slope is -3/1 = -3. Then a = -3.

5. The ordered pair (h, k) is typically used to name the point to which a function is translated. The vertex of the function f(x) = |x| is (0, 0). When it is translated to (h, k), the function becomes ...
... q(x) = |x -h| +k
If the new vertex is (3, 0), then h = 3 and k = 0. This is consistent with the equation shown. (k = 0 means q(x) = |x -h|.)

Answer: ? = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the garden is x + 3x + 1 + x + ?
The perimeter of the garden is also (6x + 2)
Therfore:
x + 3x + 1 + x + ? = 6x + 2
<em>Collect like terms: </em>
5x + 1 + ? = 6x + 2
<em>Subtract 5x from both sides:</em>
1 + ? = x + 2
<em>Subtract 1 from both sides:</em>
? = x + 1
You cannot find ? as a number, only in terms of x.
