The graph of f (x) = x + 5 is a vertical translation 5 units

Answer:

A horizontal translation of 5 units to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the parent linear function:

\displaystyle f(x)=x

To shift vertically n units, we can simply add n to our function. Hence:

f(x)=x+n

So, a vertical shift of 5 units up implies that n=5. So:

f(x)=x+5

As given.

However, to shift a linear function horizontally, we substitute our x for (x-n), where n is the horizontal shift. So:

f(x-n)=(x-n)

Where n is the horizontal shift.

For example, if we shift our parent linear function 1 unit to the right, this means that n=1. Therefore, our new function will be:

f(x-1)=(x-1)

Or:

f(x)=x-1

We notice that this is also a vertical shift of 1 unit downwards.

Therefore, we want a number n such that -n=5.

So, n=-5.

Therefore, it we shift our function 5 units to the left, then n=-5.

Then, our function will be:

f(x-(-5))=(x+5)\text{ or } f(x)=x+5

Hence, we can achieve f(x)=x+5 from f(x)=x using a horizontal translation by translating our function 5 units to the left.

The equation y 4.9t 2 3.5t 2.4 relates the height y in meters to the elapsed time t in seconds for a ball thrown downward at 3.5
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

t \approx 0.43\,s

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical displacement function is y(t) = -4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4, where y(t) is measured in meters and t in seconds. Ball hits the ground when y(t) = 0. That is:

-4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4 = 0

Whose roots can be found by using the General Formula for Second-Order Polynomials:

t_{1,2} = \frac{3.5\pm \sqrt{(-3.5)^{2}-4\cdot (-4.9)\cdot (2.4)} }{2\cdot (-4.9)}

Solutions of this polynomial are:

t_{1} \approx 0.43\,s,t_{2} \approx -1.14\,s

Only the first root is physically consistent.

Find the sum of 10 x 2 + 7 x + 6 10x 2 +7x+6 and 6 x + 5 6x+5.
dusya [7]

The sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11

<h3>Sum of expressions</h3>

Expressions are equations separated by mathematical signs. This expressions are known to contains certain unknowns

Given the following expression

10x^2 +7x+6 and 6x + 5

We are to take the sum of both expression to have:

f(x) = 10x^2 +7x+6 + 6x + 5

Collect the like terms

f(x) = 10x^2 + 7x + 6x + 6 + 5

f(x) = 10x^2 + 13x + 11

Hence the sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11
