Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we're dealing with fractions, the total fraction is 1

Mortgage =1/3

Food =1/6

Fraction of income left=x

So we equate everything above to 1

\frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{6}  + x = 1

\frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{6}  + x =  1  \\  lcm = 6  \\ multiply \: each \: term \: by \: 6 \\ 6 \times  \frac{1}{3}  + 6 \times  \frac{1}{6}  + 6(x) = 6(1)

=  > 2(1) + 1(1) + 6x = 6 \\ 2 + 1 + 6x = 6 \\ 3 + 6x = 6

6x = 6 - 3 \\ 6x = 3 \\ x =  \frac{3}{6}  =  \frac{1}{2}

(b)The graph of y = g(x) is shown. Draw the graph of g(2x). Will award 100 Brainly points
ivanzaharov [21]

Using the stated transformation, the graph of g(2x) is given at the end of the answer.

<h3>Horizontal stretch and compression</h3>

An horizontal stretch or an horizontal compression happens when a constant is multiplied at the domain of the function, as follows:

g(x) = f(ax).

The definition of stretch or compression depends on the value of the constant a, as follows:

  • If a > 1, it is a compression by a factor of 1/a.
  • If a < 1, it is a stretch by a factor of 1/a.

In this problem, the rule is:

f(x) = g(2x).

Meaning that f(x) is an horizontal compression by a factor of 1/2 of g(x), and then the vertices are given as follows:

  • (0,0).
  • (1,-4).
  • (2,-2).

That is, in each vertex, the x-coordinate was divided by 2, and thus the graph with these vertices is given at the end of the answer.
