What set of reflections and rotations would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself? Parallelogram formed by ordered pairs A at negativ

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Option (4).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the coordinates of point A for the set of reflections and rotations given in the options.

Option (1). Rotate 180° → A(-4, 1) becomes (4, -1)

Reflect over x-axis → (4, -1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the line y = x → (4, 1) becomes A'(1, 4)

Therefore, point A will not overlap itself after the number of transformations given.

Option (2). Reflect across x-axis → A(-4, 1) will become (-4, -1)

Rotate 180° → (-4, -1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the x-axis → (4, 1) becomes A'(4, -1)

Therefore, point A(-4, 1) doesn't overlap A'(4, -1).

Option (3). Rotate 180° → A(4, 1) becomes (-4, -1)

Reflect over the y-axis → (-4, -1) becomes (4, -1)

Reflected over y = x → (4, -1) becomes (-1, 4)

So the point A(4, 1) becomes A'(-1, 4) after the set of reflections,

Option (4). Reflect over the y axis → A(-4, 1) becomes (4, 1)

Reflect over the x-axis → (4, 1) becomes (4, -1)

Rotate 180° → (4, -1) becomes A'(-4, 1)

Therefore, point A will overlap itself following the set of transformations.

Factor completely:<br>64 - y^3

madam [21]

From your equation, you can see that you have a difference of two cubes (aka two cubes being subtracted): 64, which is $4^{3}$ , and $y^{3}$ .

There is rule for the difference of two cubes:
The difference of two cubes is equal to the difference of the cube roots times a binomial, which is the sum of the squares of the roots plus the product of the roots.

That sounds pretty confusing, but it's much easier to understand when put mathematically. Let's say our two cubes are $a^{3}$ and $b^{3}$ . The difference of those two cubes is:
$a^{3} - b^{3} = (a - b)( a^{2} + ab + b^{2})$

In our problem, a = 4 (since $a^{3}$ = 64) and b = y (since $b^{3} = y^{3}$ . Plug these values into the rule to find the factor of $64 - y^3$ :
$64 - y^3 \\
= (4 - y)( 4^{2} + 4y + y^{2}) \\
= (4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})$

-----

Answer: $(4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})$

Simplify the equation

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$\dfrac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There aren't any factors that cancel (except 3x). The best you can do is multiply it out.

$\displaystyle\frac{\frac{3x^2-3}{x}}{\frac{3(x^2+2)}{16x^2-37x}}=\frac{3(x^2-1)}{x}\cdot\frac{16x^2-37x}{3(x^2+2)}\\\\=\frac{x(x^2-1)(16x-37)}{x(x^2+2)}=\frac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}$

An up-and-coming artist has 85 followers on Twitter and this number doubles every week. In what week will the artist first reach

Alik [6]

Answer:

5.8 , which approximately is 6 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

the first method is the short one since u just have to double the 85 then divide to 1000.

1000 ÷ ( 85 × 2)

1000 ÷ 170 = 5.882,,,,,. round off to whole number to get 6.

the second method is the addition method.

we start by 85 then keep doubling 85 for every week........inshort.......we add 170 to each weeks number to get the number of followers for the following week.

85 ⇒ 170 ⇒ 340 ⇒ 510 ⇒ 680 ⇒ 850 ⇒ 1020.

1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th week.

u notice that we add (85×2), 170, to get the following week's number of followers..

in 5 weeks..... the number of followers is yet to get to 1000.

when u divide, u get 5.8.....,and it is not logic to say 5.8823....weeks

since she reaches 1000 followers in the 6th week.......though there is an addition,,,, it is the most appropriate answer.

The perimeter of a pool is 96 feet. If the length of the pool is 3 times its width, what is the width of the pool? Labeling the

k0ka [10]

Answer:

12 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the area of the pool be Length×width

There will be 2lengths and 2widths as well so the perimeter of the pool will be the addition of all the sides of the pool i.e 2L + 2W = 96... (1)

And since the length of the pool is 3 times its width, we have

L = 3W... (2)

Substituting equation 2 into 1 to get the width 'W'

2(3W) + 2W = 96

6W + 2W = 96

8W = 96

W = 96/8

W = 12feets

The width of the pool is 12feets
