Describe how the graph of each function differs from the graph of f(x)=|x|. Then determine the domain and range.

Brilliant_brown [7]

A. We can compress the graph of the function $f(x)=|x|$ in the y-direction by multiplying the whole function by a constant C, such that $0$ Since $0$ , the graph of the function $g(x)= 0.6|x|$ is obtained from the graph of the function $f(x)=|x|$ by compression in the y-direction.

B. We can stretch the graph of the function $f(x)=|x|$ in the y-direction by multiplying the whole function by a constant C, such that $C>1.$ Since $4>1,$ , the graph of the function $g(x)= 4|x-3|$ is obtained from the graph of the function $f(x)=|x|$ by compression in the y-direction and translation 3 units to the right.

C. We can flip the graph of the function $f(x)=|x|$ upside down by multiplying the whole function by −1, then translate 1 unit to the left and 5 units up. Then we will get the function $g(x)=-|x+1|+5.$

a person bought 8 items at a market and received $8 in change. if each item was priced at $4, how much did the person give the v

mariarad [96]

If a person bought 8 items and each item was priced at $4, that means the total amount spent was $32.

$(8)(4)=32$

The person received 8 dollars in change. This means that the person payed 8 dollars more than what they spent. Well, we just found out how much they spent, so we can find out how much money the person gave the vendor.

Let p = amount of money paid by the person.

$32+8=p$
