Segment FG begins at point F(-2, 4) and ends at point G (-2, -3). Segment FG is translated by (x, y) → (x – 3, y + 2) and then r

Answer:

The length of the segment F'G' is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Linear Algebra we define reflection across the y-axis as follows:

(x',y')=(-x, y), \forall\, x, y\in \mathbb{R} (Eq. 1)

In addition, we get this translation formula from the statement of the problem:

(x',y') =(x-3,y+2), \forall \,x,y\in \mathbb{R} (Eq. 2)

Where:

(x, y) - Original point, dimensionless.

(x', y') - Transformed point, dimensionless.

If we know that F(x,y) = (-2, 4) and G(x,y) = (-2,-3), then we proceed to make all needed operations:

Translation

F''(x,y) = (-2-3,4+2)

F''(x,y) = (-5,6)

G''(x,y) = (-2-3,-3+2)

G''(x,y) = (-5,-1)

Reflection

F'(x,y) = (5, 6)

G'(x,y) = (5,-1)

Lastly, we calculate the length of the segment F'G' by Pythagorean Theorem:

F'G' = \sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+[(-1)-6]^{2}}

F'G' = 7

The length of the segment F'G' is 7.

We have the following function:
 P (m) = m / 6 + 9
 Clearing m we have:
 m = 6 * (p-9)
 m= 6*p - 6*9
 Rewriting:
 m (p) = 6p-54
 Answer:
 
The inverse function for this case is given by:
 
m (p) = 6p-54
