Answer:

  • square: 12 ft sides
  • octagon: 6 ft sides

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be worked in your head.

If the perimeters of the square and regular octagon are the same, the side length of the 4-sided square must be the same as the length of 2 sides of the 8-sided octagon. Since the side of the square is 6 ft more than the side of the octagon, each side of the octagon must be 6 ft, and each side of the square must be 12 ft.

__

We can let s represent the side length of the octagon. Then we have ...

  8s = perimeter of octagon

  4(s +6) = perimeter of square

These are equal, so ...

  4(s +6) = 8s

  s +6 = 2s . . . . . . divide by 4

  6 = s . . . . . . . . . . subtract s

The octagon has 6-ft sides; the square has 12-ft sides.

Given the two functions, which statement is true?
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = \text{log}_{15}x

Transformed form of the function 'f' is 'g'.

g(x) = \frac{1}{2}\text{log}_{15}(x+4)

Property of vertical stretch or compression of a function,

k(x) = x

Transformed function → m(x) = kx

Here, k = scale factor

1). If k > 1, function is vertically stretched.

2). If 0 < k < 1, function is vertically compressed.

From the given functions, k = \frac{1}{2}

Since, k is between 0 and \frac{1}{2}, function f(x) is vertically compressed by a scale factor \frac{1}{2}.

g(x) = f(x + 4) represents a shift of function 'f' by 4 units left.

g(x) = f(x - 4) represents a shift of function 'f' by 4 units right.

g(x) = \frac{1}{2}\text{log}_{15}(x+4)

Therefore, function f(x) has been shifted by 4 units left to form image function g(x).

Option D is the answer.

Reflect the point (2, -4) over the y-axis. Question 1 options: (2, 4) (-2, -4) (-4, 2) (-2, 4) Question 2 will mark the brainlie
o-na [289]

Answer:

The coordinates of the image point will be (-2,-4).

Step-by-step explanation:

The reflection of the point (2,-4) over the y-axis is to be determined.

Now, as the reflecting mirror is the y-axis, then the y-coordinate of the reflecting point will not change.

So, the image point will have coordinates (h,-4).

Now, after the reflection over the y-axis, the x-coordinate of the image point will change the sign only compared to the original point.

Therefore, the coordinates of the image point will be (-2,-4). (Answer)
