Answer:
x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression simplifies to ...

For x ≥ 4, the argument of the absolute value function is non-negative, so it remains unchanged. The simplified expression is ...
x - 4 . . . . for x ≥ 4
Answer:
44.81 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
In the right triangle ACD
Find the length side AC (height of the small fire tower)
---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)
Solve for AC


step 2
In the right triangle ABE
Find the length side AB
---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)
solve for AB


step 3
How many feet off the ground is the squirrel?
Subtract the length side segment AB from the length side segment AC
so

Explanation:
An exponential function is in the general form
y
=
a
(
b
)
x
We know the points
(
−
1
,
8
)
and
(
1
,
2
)
, so the following are true:
8
=
a
(
b
−
1
)
=
a
b
2
=
a
(
b
1
)
=
a
b
Multiply both sides of the first equation by
b
to find that
8
b
=
a
Plug this into the second equation and solve for
b
:
2
=
(
8
b
)
b
2
=
8
b
2
b
2
=

b
=
±
1
2
Two equations seem to be possible here. Plug both values of
b
into the either equation to find
a
. I'll use the second equation for simpler algebra.
If
b
=
1
2
:
2
=
a
(
1
2
)
a
=
4
Giving us the equation:
y
=
4
(
1
2
)
x
If
b
=
−
1
2
:
2
=
a
(
−
1
2
)
a
=
−
4
Giving us the equation:
y
=
−
4
(
−
1
2
)
x
However! In an exponential function,
b
>
0
, otherwise many issues arise when trying to graph the function.
The only valid function is
y
=
4
(
1
2
)
x
Answer:
1) Dilation
2) enlarge or shrink
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The shape stays the same, but the area and size change based upon the scale factor (k)
2) Dilation can shrink or enlarge something based upon a scale factor
