Your post (" <span>f(x) = 2/3(6)x ") would be clearer and less ambiguous if you'd please format it as follows:
</span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x. The (2/3) shows that 2/3 is the coefficient of the exponential function 6^x. Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation.
Start by graphing </span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x. The y-intercept, obtained by setting x=0, is (0, 2/3). Can you show that the value of f(x) is (2/3)*6, or 4, at x=1, (2/3)*6^2, or 24, at x = 2, and so on? What happens if x becomes increasingly smaller? The graph approaches, but does not touch, the x-axis.
If you complete this graphing assignment, then all you'd have to do is to flip the whole graph over vertically, reflecting it in the x-axis. You'll see that the graph never touchs the x-axis. Therefore, the range of this flipped graph is (-infinity, 0).</span>
I think it’s 2. You can see this because if you count the squares in the smaller triangle it is 3 along. You would then need to double the amount of squares on all sides. This makes the larger triangle now 6 squares along. 6/3 is 2 making the scale factor 2. (This is only if I have read the question correctly and we are calculating small to big. If I have read it wrong and it is big to small it would be 1/2)
Answer:
- 1700: $50
- 2000: $60
- 7000: $90
Step-by-step explanation:
You can read the answers from the graph. Find the usage on the horizontal scale, and look at the vertical scale to find the corresponding charge.
__
<h3>1700 gallons</h3>
The value 1700 is between 1000 and 2000, so will be between 1 and 2 on the horizontal scale. The graph is flat in that region. The charge is $50.
__
<h3>2000 gallons</h3>
The graph has a jump at 2 on the horizontal scale. The solid dot tells you that the charge is $60.
__
<h3>7000 gallons</h3>
At 7 on the horizontal scale, the graph is increasing from 80 to 100. At 7000 gallons, the line passes through the grid intersection indicating the charge is $90.
