Let

be the identity matrix. Then pick whatever matrix you like for

.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the picture below.
1. Given the function f(x) = |x|, applying a vertical stretch with scale factor
, we have the transformed function:

2. Applying a translation of 3 units to the right, we have:

3. Finally applying a translation down of 1 unit, we have:

So if in 2 hours you drove 80 miles the in 1 hour you have to have driven 40 miles (80m/2h)
so you have to divide the 1200 miles by the 40mph to find out how many hours the trip will take (1200m/40mph=30h)
Answer:
f(-2) = 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in -2 to x in the equation:
f(x) = 3^x
f(-2) = 3^(-2)
Solve. Note that if there is a negative in the power, you must flip the "fraction" and set it over 1. The answer itself does not become negative:
f(-2) = 1/(3^2)
f(-2) = 1/(9)
f(-2) = 1/9 is your answer.
