Ok so
fater=60
son is 1/2
60 times 1/2=30
they aer 30 years apart

how long ago was father age 4 times son age
father's age x year ago=60-x
son's age x years ago=30-x

60-x=4(30-x)
distribute
60-x=120-4x
add 4x to both sides
60+3x=120
minus 60 from both sides
3x=60
divide both sides by 3
x=20

Answer:

  • left 3 units
  • up 4 units
  • shape: lower left image

Step-by-step explanation:

For a parent function f(x), the transformations ...

  g(x) = a×f(x -h) +k

cause ...

  • vertical expansion by 'a', reflection over x-axis if negative
  • right shift by 'h'
  • up shift by 'k'

Here, we have parent function f(x) = 1/x with a=-1, h=-3, k=4. Then the transformations are ...

  horizontal shift left 3 units

  vertical shift up 4 units

  reflection over x-axis, so curves are above-left and below-right of the reference point (Note that the reflection is done <em>before</em> the translation.)

PLEASE HELP! I have a deadline tonight ,I have to get this done! thank you!!<br> Two questions (:
Viktor [21]
Both of your answers are correct. In the first equation, if you were to substitute 3 for x, because you have to do exponents first, you have 3^2, which is 9, and 9*6 =54. If you were to substitute -3 for x again you would have to do the exponents first which would be -3^2 which is 9, and 9*6 = 54. 

For the second question, if I substitute 0.75 for t, I get -9 + 18 + 7. This is equal to 16, and therefore the answer would be D. Hope this helps! :D. Let me know if you have questions about my explanation, and feel free to post more questions.
