Answer:

a = 1

b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's make equations out of those given f(x)'s

-4 = -3a + b

2 = 3a + b

We can use elimination method to get rid of the a real quick

-4 = b

2 = b

Add those together

-2 = 2b

Divide both sides by 2

-2/2 = 2b/2

b = -1

Plug in the new b in one of the original equations; I'm gonna use the bottom one

2 = 3a - 1

+ 1        + 1

3 = 3a

3/3 = 3a/3

a = 1

Write the equation for the inverse of y = cos 2x
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Inverse = (arcos x) / 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = cos 2x

2x= arcos y

x = (arcos y) / 2.

Inverse = (arcos x) / 2.

Answer:

(a) A translation is a rigid transformation. How does this statement support line s being parallel to line r?

Because ALL of the points of line r move the same distance in the same direction, then the inclination of the line s doesn't change with respect line r.

(b) Write and expression for the slope of line r:

(k-n)/(j-m)

(c) Write and expression for the slope of line s:

(k-n)/(j-m)

(d) Line q is a vertical is a vertical translation of line s 3 units down. P'' is the image of P'. What are the coordinates of P''?

The coordinates of P'' are:

P''=(m,n+ϴ-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A translation is a rigid transformation. How does this statement support line s being parallel to line r?

Because ALL of the points of line r move the same distance in the same direction, then the inclination of the line s doesn't change with respect line r.


(b) Write and expression for the slope of line r.

Line r goes through the points:

P=(m,n)=(xp,yp)→xp=m, yp=n

Q=(j,k)=(xq,yq)→xq=j, yq=k

Slope of line r is:

mr=(yq-yp)/(xq-xp)

Replacing the coordinates, the expression for the slope of line r is:

mr=(k-n)/(j-m)


(c) Write and expression for the slope of line s.

Line s goes through the points:

P'=(m,n+ϴ)=(xp',yp')→xp'=m, yp'=n+ϴ

Q'=(j,k+ϴ)=(xq',yq')→xq'=j, yq'=k+ϴ

Slope of line s is:

ms=(yq'-yp')/(xq'-xp')

Replacing the coordinates, the expression for the slope of line s is:

ms=[(k+ϴ)-(n+ϴ)]/(j-m)

Eliminating the parentheses in the numerator:

ms=[k+ϴ-n-ϴ]/(j-m)

Simplifyng:

ms=(k-n)/(j-m)


(d) Line q is a vertical is a vertical translation of line s 3 units down. P'' is the image of P'. What are the coordinates of P''?

3 units down, then change only the ordinate y:

P''=(xp',yp'-3)

Replacing xp' and yp':

P''=(m,n+ϴ-3)
