Answer:

y = 2 \cos(4x)  - 1 \\ when \: y = 0 \\  \cos(4x)  =  \frac{1}{2}  \\ 4x = 60 \\ x = 15 \\ when \: x = 0 \\ y = 2 - 1 = 1 \\ intercepts =  > (15, \: 0) \: and \: (0, \: 1) \\ midpoints : ( \frac{15 + 0}{2} , \:  \frac{0 + 1}{2} ) \\  = (7.5, \: 0.5) \\ gradient =  \frac{1 - 0}{0 - 15}  \\  =  -  \frac{1}{15}  \\ y = mx + c \\ at \: (7.5, \: 0.5) \\ 0.5 =  -  \frac{1}{15}  \times 7.5 + c \\ 0.5 =  - 0.5 + c \\ c = 1 \\  \therefore \: y =  -  \frac{1}{15} x + 1 \\  =  > 15y =  - x + 15

The point (2, -3), is the top of a triangle. Which point would it map to if the triangle was translated up 7 units and reflected
Elza [17]

Answer: (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you go up any number of units, you add it to the y-coordinate. So -3 + 7 = 4. That would make it, (2,4). The next step would be reflecting it across the y-axis. And whenever you reflect across the y-axis, the x-coordinate always changes.

Jill has $1.25 in her pocket. The money is in quarters and dimes. There are a total of 8 coins. How many quarters and dimes does
erica [24]

Answer:

  • 3 quarters
  • 5 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the number of quarters (the higher-value coin). Then 8-q is the number of dimes, and Jill's total amount in change is ...

  0.25q +0.10(8-q) = 1.25

  0.15q + 0.80 = 1.25 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  0.15q = 0.45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.80

  q = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15

  the number of dimes is 8-q = 8-3 = 5.

Jill has 3 quarters and 5 dimes.
