rusak2 [61]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 3) = x - 4 \\ 2x + 6 = x - 4 \\ 2x - x =  - 4 - 6 \\ x =  - 10

Given the function, f(x) = x2 - 3, calculate the average rate of change of the function from x = 1 to x = 3.
Crank

\bf slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies  \cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby  \begin{array}{llll} average~rate\\ of~change \end{array}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ f(x)= x^2-3  \qquad  \begin{cases} x_1=1\\ x_2=3 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(3)-f(1)}{3-1} \\\\\\ \cfrac{[3^2-3]-[1^2-3]}{2}\implies \cfrac{6 - (-2)}{2}\implies \cfrac{6+2}{2}\implies \cfrac{8}{2}\implies 4

XYZ is a dilation of triangle ABC by a scale factor of 5. Which of the following proportions verified that triangle ABC and XYZ
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

C. AB/XY = AC/XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. The original figure either stretches or shrinks by a certain factor.

In the problem, the dilation is by a factor of 5 and we can see that ABC shrinks to form XYZ.

So, ABC and XYZ are similar triangles which means that the ratio of their corresponding sides will be equal:

AB/XY = AC/XZ = BC/YZ = 5

<h3>3 Answers:</h3>

A) y intercept is (0,3)

C) Axis of symmetry is x = -1

D) Vertex is (-1, 4)

So basically everything but choice B is true.

========================================

Explanation:

Choice A is true because plugging in x = 0 leads to y = 3. Effectively, anything with an x goes away when x = 0 leaving that 3 behind. So finding the y intercept in this form is fairly fast.

-------------------

To check choices B through D, let's convert the equation into vertex form.

y = -1x^2 - 2x + 3 is in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c where

a = -1

b = -2

c = 3

The vertex is located at (h,k) such that h = -b/(2a)

Plug the values of 'a' and 'b' into the equation below

h = -b/(2a)

h = -(-2)/(2*(-1))

h = 2/(-2)

h = -1

The x coordinate of the vertex is x = -1

Then use this to find the y coordinate of the vertex

y = -1x^2 - 2x + 3

y = -1(-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 3

y = 4

The y coordinate of the vertex is 4, meaning k = 4

The vertex overall is (h,k) = (-1, 4)

This shows choice D is true, meaning choice B has to be false.

Choice C is true because the axis of symmetry is the x coordinate of the vertex. This is the vertical line that cuts the parabola into two mirrored halves. This vertical line always goes through the vertex.
