There is a 10.72 percent decrease:)
Answer:
x=8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation
2x+5=22
x represents he unknown number
Solve for x:
2x+5-5=22-5
2x=17
2x/2=17/2
x=8.5
Answer:u=19/7 or 2.714286 or 2 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
−14u+32=−6
Step 1: Subtract 32 from both sides.
-14u+32-32=-6-32
-14u=-38
Step 2: Divide both sides by -14.
-14u/-14=-38/-14
U=19/7
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write the general form of the sine curve:
, where,
- A is the amplitude. Also, if A is negative, curve reflects about x axis
- B is the compression/stretching factor. It changes the period when it is a value other than 1.
- C is the phase shift. It translates curve left or right. Negative value shifts right and positive value shifts left.
- D is the vertical shift. It translates curve up or down. Negative value shifts down and positive value shifts up.
Let's check the 4 choices.
A.
Since this curve's A is -2, its amplitude is 2 and range is from -2 to 2. BUT since D value is -3, it shifts vertically 3 units down making the range from -1 to -5. Clearly choice A is not true.
B.
This graph is the graph of
shifted 3 units DOWN since D is negative. This choice isn't true.
C.
Because of the - (minus) sign in front of the function, the function is reflected about x-axis, but amplitude doesn't change. Since A value is 2, amplitude is 2. This is true.
D.
Period depends on the B value. Here, B value is 1, so period is normal as the parent function of a sine curve, which is
, NOT
. So this is not correct.
ANSWER: C is true
