Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, break it down:

Two is eight less than twice a number

2 = 2x - 8

+8       + 8

10 = 2x

5 = x

Hope this helps :)

If the parent function f(x)=\root(3)(x) is transformed to g(x)=\root(3)(x+2-4), which is the graph of g(x)?
Arisa [49]

ANSWER

A.

EXPLANATION

The parent function is

f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}

This function is transformed to obtain

g(x) =  \sqrt[3]{x + 2}  - 4

The +2 is a horizontal translation, that shifts the graph of the parent function to the left by 2 units.

The -4 is a vertical translation, that shifts the graph of the parent function down by 4 units.

The correct option is A.

So I'm in an online class of geometry and one of the units is trig. but no matter how long i keep learning or trying to learn th
Arturiano [62]

Answer and explanation:

There are six main trigonometric ratios, namely: sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant, cotangent.

Those ratios relate two sides of a right triangle and one angle.

Assume the following features and measures of a right triangle ABC

  • right angle: B, measure β
  • hypotenuse (opposite to angle B): length b

  • angle C: measure γ
  • vertical leg (opposite to angle C): length c

  • horizontal leg (opposite to angle A): length a
  • angle A: measure α

Then, the trigonometric ratios are:

  • sine (α) = opposite leg / hypotenuse = a / b
  • cosine (α) = adjacent leg / hypotenuse = c / b
  • tangent (α) = opposite leg / adjacent leg = a / c

  • cosecant (α) = 1 / sine (α) = b / a
  • secant (α) = 1 / cosine (α) = b / c
  • cotangent (α) = 1 / tangent (α) = c / b

Then, if you know one angle (other than the right one) of a right triangle, and any of the sides you can determine any of the other sides.

For instance, assume an angle to be 30º, and the lenght of the hypotenuse to measure 5 units.

  • sine (30º) = opposite leg / 5 ⇒ opposite leg = 5 × sine (30º) = 2.5
  • cosine (30º) = adjacent leg / 5 ⇒ adjacent leg = 5 × cosine (30º) = 4.3

Thus, you have solved for the two unknown sides of the triangle. The three sides are 2.5, 4.3, and 5.

2/5

Since 12 out of 30 marbles were black, you can assume that the percentage of black marbles in the bag is 40% (Ex: 12/30=.4) The probability that the marble you pick is black is equal to the percentage of black marbles in the bag. 40% is equal to 2/5.
