<span>Let's start with basic definitions: 1 inch-----0.0833333 ft If 0.375 Ft- represents 0.25 inches then 1 foof-x inches 0.25 inches x 1 ft / 0.375 ft: 0.66666666666667 (2/3) inch 1 foot is represented by 2/3 of an inch</span>

1/4 inch represents 3/8ft
x inch represents 1ft
1/4:3/8=x:1, 3/8*x=1/4*1
x=(1/4)/(3/8)
x=2/3
2/3 inch on the model represents 1 foot.

Line p contains point (6, -5) and is perpendicular to line q. The equation for line q is y = 3x + 5. 1) Write an equation for li

wel

Answer:

$y = -\frac{1}{3}x -3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. To find the line, convert the slope of q and substitute it with (6, -5) into point slope form.

y = 3x + 5 is q. It has a slope of 3. So p will have a slope of -1/3.

$y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - -5 = -\frac{1}{3}(x - 6)\\y + 5 = -\frac{1}{3}x + 2\\y = -\frac{1}{3}x -3$

The function f(x)= square root of x is translated using the rule (x, y) → (x – 6, y + 9) to create A(x). Which expression descri

Alex73 [517]

The function $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ is translated according to the rule

$(x,y)\rightarrow (x-6,y+9).$

This translation is translation 6 units to the left and 9 units up.

1. Translation of the function $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ 6 units to the left gives you the function $g(x)=\sqrt{x+6}.$

2. Translation of the function $g(x)=\sqrt{x+6}$ 9 units up gives you the function $A(x)=\sqrt{x+6}+9.$

The domain of the function $A(x)$ is $[-6,\infty),$ then the range of the function $A(x)$ is $[9,\infty).$

Answer: $[9,\infty).$

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to combine like terms

76-4x=36 We will then use inverse operations to find x

-4x=-40 Continue using inverse operations

x=10
