Answer:

1/2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of pledges she collected last year

The number of pledges that Melissa collected for this year's charity walk is 8 less than half the number of pledges she collected last year.

Number of pledges she collected this year = 1/2x - 8

The expression which represents the number of pledges she collected this year = 1/2x - 8

Ken buys some fruit.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

6 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

4x125g= 500g

2x170g= 340g

3x135g= 405g

500+340+405= 1,245g

1.785kg= xg

1.785x1,000= 1,785g

1,785-1,245g= 540g

each orange weighs 90g

540/90= 6

Ken buys 6 oranges.

Enter the correct answer in the box. Function g is the result of these transformations on the parent sine function: vertical str
Llana [10]

Answer:

By substituting the values of A, C, and D the equation modelling the function is;

g(x) = 3·sin(x - π/2) - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, we have;

The vertical stretch of the sine function = 3 × The parent function

∴ A = 3

Given that the horizontal shift left = π/2 units, (from an online source with similar question)

The vertical shift down = 4 units

The given function, g is g(x) = A·sin(x + C) + D

Where;

A = The amplitude = The maximum displacement from the rest or equilibrium position = 3

C = The horizontal shift = -π/2 (The negative sign is for the shifting to the left)

D = The vertical shift = -4 (The negative sign is for a shift in the downward direction)

Therefore, the equation modelling the function is;

g(x) = 3·sin(x - π/2) - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 3(x + 2) = 12

<u>The next step is:</u>

  • 3*x + 3*2 = 12
  • 3x + 6 = 12

This is a distributive property

Correct choice is A
