Answer:

5,120

Step-by-step explanation:

an = 5.(-2)^(n-1)

a11 = 5.(-2)^(11-1)

= 5.(-2)^10

= 5.(1,024)

= 5,120

NO LINKS!!! What is the transformation f(x)= x^3:

Mama L [17]

Answer:

4. Horizontal shrink by a factor of ¹/₅

5. Left 5, Up 5

6. Right 5, Down 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformations of Graphs (functions) is the process by which a function is moved or resized to produce a variation of the original (parent) function.

Transformations

For a > 0

$f(x+a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units left}$

$f(x-a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units right}$

$f(x)+a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units up}$

$f(x)-a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units down}$

$y=a\:f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the y-axis (vertically) by a factor of}\:a$

$y=f(ax) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{a}$

$y=-f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: x \textsf{-axis}$

$y=f(-x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: y \textsf{-axis}$

Identify the transformations that take the parent function to the given function.

Question 4

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(5x)^3$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that the x-value of the parent function has been multiplied by 5.

Therefore, the transformation is:

$y=f(5x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{5}$

As a > 1, the transformation visually is a compression in the x-direction, so we can also say: Horizontal shrink by a factor of ¹/₅

Question 5

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x+5)^3+5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been added to the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x+5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units left}$

Step 2

5 has then been added to function.

$f(x+5)+5 \implies f(x+5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units up}$

Transformation: Left 5, Up 5

Question 6

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x-5)^3-5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been subtracted from the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x-5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units right}$

Step 2

5 has then been subtracted from function.

$f(x-5)-5 \implies f(x-5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units down}$

Transformation: Right 5, Down 5

The numbers x and y are inversely proportional. When the sum of x and y is 42, x is twice y. What is the value of y when x = -8?

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=42. We know that x plus y equals 42.

x=2y . We also know that x equals twice y.

2y+y=42. Since we know that x=2y, we're going to replace x with 2y from the original equation, simplified would be 3y=42.

y=14. 3y=42 simplified is y=14, this is because we divided both sides by 3 (since 3 and 42 are both divisible by 3) (btw divisible by 3 simply means that it can be divided by 3)

x+14=42. Now that we know what y equals, let's replace y with 14 from the original equation.

x=28. Now that we know that x=28 and y=14, we know that y is always x/2.

When x=-8, we divide it by 2 and get, -4.

Not absolutely positive as this was all mental math, but hope this helps! :)
