Help me pls big points

Step-by-step explanation: When the a number is either added or subtracted on the inside (will be surrounded by parentheses if it is on the inside) the parent function is moved right and left. Since it is inside parentheses, though, everything that happens will be the opposite of what it shows. Even though it says -7, and you would assume it shifts left, it doesn't. It actually goes to the right.

The curved part of this figure is a semicircle.

Nitella [24]

Draw the diameter from point (-1, -5) to point (2, 3).

The triangle has base 3 and height 8.

The diameter of the semicircle is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

$d = \sqrt{3^2 + 8^2}$

$d \approx 8.544$

The radius is half the diameter.

$r = \dfrac{d}{2} = \dfrac{8.544}{2} = 4.272$

The total area is the area of the triangle plus the area of the semicircle.

$A = \dfrac{bh}{2} + \dfrac{\pi r^2}{2}$

$A = \dfrac{3 \times 8}{2} + \dfrac{\pi \times 4.272^2}{2}$

$A = 12 + 9.125 \pi$ $units^2$

Introduction

Wrestling is a wonderful activity with many advantages for the student-athlete. It is a sport that is highly

competitive, exciting and satisfying. It is a sport that provides for individual and team competition. It is -

and should be - fun. Unfortunately, the practice of losing weight by not eating, restricting fluid intake and

over-exercising reduces the sport's fun. This information is presented to help clear up misconceptions

regarding wrestling and weight loss. I also hope to give some guidance to those who desire to manage

their weight properly in preparation for and during the wrestling season.

History and Stigma

For too long, the wrestling community has unthinkingly accepted the myth that to be a good wrestler, you

must cut weight. The generally accepted thinking is something like this: if your natural weight is 135

pounds, you may be a good wrestler at 135 pounds. But if you wrestle at 130 pounds, you'll be a better

wrestler. And if you can make it down to 125, you'll be a state champion. No facts support that widely held

view, yet wrestlers and parents subscribe to that faulty reasoning. Looking further back, many remember

the days that losing excessive weight was a specific practice and expectation among wrestlers. It was

supposed to teach sacrifice, commitment, and the idea of “No Pain, No Gain.”

Regardless of the current attitude of the majority of the wrestling community, the stigma that an unhealthy

loss of weight is a requirement of wrestling among outside observers sticks. The Virginia High School

League has followed national guidelines to establish rules that encourage healthy weight management

among wrestlers.

Current Regulations

Preseason weight certification is accomplished with three steps. The first is determining each wrestler’s

body fat percentage using skin fold calipers. Next, the wrestler completes a hydration test, to insure

against a dehydrated weight measurement, and the wrestler weighs in. The third step is the calculation of

the wrestler’s minimum wrestling weight based on 7% body fat for males and 12% for females. The

wrestler may not wrestle at a weight class below his minimum weight during the season. The wrestler is

also restricted from losing more then 1.5% body weight loss per week (official weigh-ins at certification,

matches, and tournaments are used for this calculation). A one-pound per month growth allowance is

provided to allow for the natural growth of this age group. The VHSL advises, and we have instituted,

daily weigh-ins before and after practice to monitor weight-loss and dehydration.

Additionally, the National Federation of State High School Associations has adopted several other rules to

guide coaches and wrestlers while managing their weight. Wrestlers are discouraged from wrestling at a

weight class more then one weight class above their certified weight.
