Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If A, B and C lies on a straight line in order, then;

AB+BC = AC

x+12+2x-4 = 26

x+2x+12-4 =26

3x+8 = 26

3x = 26-8

3x = 18

x = 18/3

x = 6

Hence the value of x is 6

A boat is anchored 2.2 km due south of a lighthouse. Along the shore, the town of Beachton is 16.8 km due east of the lighthouse
Pavlova-9 [17]
Distance from the boat to the town:
d² = 2.2² + 16.8²
d² = 4.84 + 282.24
d² = 287.08
d = √287.08
d = 16.9434 ≈ 16.9 km

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function can be rewritten as y = ∛(27)*∛(x-3) - 5, or y = 3∛(x-3) - 5.

The basic (parent) function is y = ∛x.  Graph this.

Next, perform a vertical stretch on this parent function:  every y value will be 3 times its previous value.

Next, translate this graph 3 units to the right.

Last, translate this new graph 5 units downward.
