I would say A. is the correct answer. Definitely a weird one. Hope this helps!
Answer:
I guess that you want to know the transformations:
We start with:
f(x) = y = 4*x + 3
a)the transformed function is:
f(x) = y = -4*x - 3
So the sign changed.
This means that we go from (x, y) to (x, - y)
This is a reflection over the x-axis which changes the sin of the y component.
b) Now we go to f(x) = 4*x + 3
So the coefficient in the leading term changed.
This is a horizontal contraction:
A horizontal contraction of factor K for the function g(x) is: g(K*x)
In our case, we have:
f(K*x) = 4*(k*x) + 3 = x + 3
4*k*x = x
4*k = 1
k = 1/4
Then the transformation is an horizontal contraction of scale factor 1/4.
The answer is <span>9.55 minutes
</span>
1. Turn 15 km into miles:
1 km = 0.621 mile
15 km = 15 * 0.621 mile = 9.315 miles
So, she ran 9.315 miles for 89 minutes
2. Calculate <span>how many minutes it took Jimena to run 1 mile during the race:
S</span>he ran 9.315 miles for 89 minutes.
She ran 1 mile for x minutes.
9.315 mi : 89 min = 1 mi : x
x = 89 min * 1 mi / 9.315 mi
x = 9.55 min
80% of (Cost) = $68
80% is also 0.8:
0.8 x Cost = $68
dividing each side by 0.8
Cost = 68 / 0.8 = 85 = $85
