Answer:
Choice A)
.
Step-by-step explanation:
What are the changes that would bring
to
?
- Translate
to the left by
unit, and - Stretch
vertically (by a factor greater than
.)
. The choices of
listed here are related to
:
- Choice A)
; - Choice B)
; - Choice C)
; - Choice D)
.
The expression in the braces (for example
as in
) is the independent variable.
To shift a function on a cartesian plane to the left by
units, add
to its independent variable. Think about how
, which is to the left of
, will yield the same function value.
Conversely, to shift a function on a cartesian plane to the right by
units, subtract
from its independent variable.
For example,
is
unit to the left of
. Conversely,
is
unit to the right of
. The new function is to the left of
. Meaning that
should should add
to (rather than subtract
from) the independent variable of
. That rules out choice B) and D).
- Multiplying a function by a number that is greater than one will stretch its graph vertically.
- Multiplying a function by a number that is between zero and one will compress its graph vertically.
- Multiplying a function by a number that is between
and zero will flip its graph about the
-axis. Doing so will also compress the graph vertically. - Multiplying a function by a number that is less than
will flip its graph about the
-axis. Doing so will also stretch the graph vertically.
The graph of
is stretched vertically. However, similarly to the graph of this graph
, the graph of
increases as
increases. In other words, the graph of
isn't flipped about the
-axis.
should have been multiplied by a number that is greater than one. That rules out choice C) and D).
Overall, only choice A) meets the requirements.
Since the plot in the question also came with a couple of gridlines, see if the points
's that are on the graph of
fit into the expression
.
16 = 2/5
16 ÷ 2 = 2/5 ÷ 2/1
8 = 1/5
8 * 5 = 1/5 * 5
40 = 5/5
You started the party with 40 brownies
Answer:
24 people borrowed the books on Friday
Step-by-step explanation:
Every day, the number of books is being subtracted by 2.
56 - Monday (-8)
48 - Tuesday (-8)
40 - Wednesday (-8)
32 - Thursday (-8)
24- Friday
Answer: A.
.
Step-by-step explanation:
- A difference of squares problem is factored as :

- For this both terms in the form of squares and a minus sign between them.
From all the options only option A has both terms square and they minus sign between them.
Also, 
Here a= 3x and b= 4
Hence, the correct answer is A.
.
Join the centre O to the chord (let it be MN) & let OH be the perpendicular to the chord
OH bisects MN into 2 equal parts (each one is x/2)
OMH is a right triangle with one side =8, the second leg =x/2 & the hypotenuse = 12 (Radius)
Apply Pythagoras:
12² = 8² +(x/2)² ==>144=64 + x²/4 ==> x²=4(144-64) =320
x²=320==> x=√320 =17.88 ≈17.9
