∆ABC and ∆ADE are similar triangles.

Thus ;

$\frac{AD}{AC} = \frac{DE}{BC} = \frac{AE}{AB} \\$

So :

$\frac{5}{3 + 2x} = \frac{4}{8} \\$

$\frac{5}{3 + 2x} = \frac{1}{2} \\$

Inverse both sides

$\frac{3 + 2x}{5} = \frac{2}{1} \\$

$\frac{2x + 3}{5} = 2 \\$

Multiply sides by 5

$5 \times \frac{2x + 3}{5} = 5 \times 2 \\$

$2x + 3 = 10$

Thus ;

$AC = 2x + 3 = 10$

$AC = 10$

Done...

Given that (-3,7) is on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for the function f(x + 5).

natulia [17]

Given transformation is f(x+5) which is similar to f(x+h).

f(x+h) shifts the graph "h" units to the left side.

so that means f(x+5) will shift the graph "5" units to the left side.

Left or right movement is done using x-coordinate only so -3 will change in (-3,7)

-3+5=2

so the new coordinate of the point will be (2,7)

Hence final answer is (2,7).

Given that (-5,-6) is on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for this function -1/3f(x).

masya89 [10]

<h3>Answer: (-5, 2)</h3>

Explanation:

We multiply the y coordinate by -1/3 because of the notation (-1/3)*f(x). Recall that y = f(x). The x coordinate stays the same.

Can someone explain how to convert a quadratic function in standard form to vertex form using the "complete the square" method?

Arisa [49]

The required steps are explained below to convert the quadratic function into a perfect square.

<h3>What is the parabola?</h3>

It's the locus of a moving point that keeps the same distance between a stationary point and a specified line. The focus is a non-movable point, while the directrix is a non-movable line.

Let the quadratic function be y = ax² + bx + c.

The first step is to take common the coefficient of x². We have

$\rm y = a \left (x^2 + \dfrac{b}{a}x \right) + c$

Add and subtract the half of the square the coefficient of x,

$\rm y = a \left (x^2 + \dfrac{b}{a}x + \dfrac{b^2}{4a^2} \right) - a \times \dfrac{b^2}{4a^2} + c$

Then we have

$\rm y = a \left (x + \dfrac{b}{a} \right)^2 - \dfrac{b^2}{4a} + c$

These are the required step to get the perfect square of the quadratic function.

More about the parabola link is given below.
