The scale factor K = 0.9 is smaller than 1, so this is a reduction.

If we have a dimension L, a change of scale of scale factor K gives the new length: K*L

Then:

if K > 1, we have an enlargement.

if K = 1, we have a preservation (nothing changes)

if  0 < K < 1, we have a reduction.

In this case, we have K = 0.9, this is smaller than 1, so we have a reduction.

Answer:

  y = -1/3x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the slope-intercept form equation of the line through the points (-3, 2) and (-9, 4).

The slope is given by the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x)

  m = (4 -2)/(-9 -(-3)) = 2/-6 = -1/3

The y-intercept is given by the formula ...

  b = y1 -m(x1)

  b = 2 - (-1/3)(-3) = 1

The slope-intercept equation of the line is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = -1/3x +1

The equations of each of the given lines are:

Line a is: x = -4

Line b is: x = 4

Line c is: y = 4

Line d is: y = -2

Line e is: y = -¾x + 1

If we determine the slope value, m, and the y-intercept value, b, the equation of a line can be written as y = mx + b in slope-intercept form by plugging in the values of the determined variables.

For a vertical line, the equation is expressed as x = b, where b is the x-intercept of the line.

For a horizontal line, the equation would be y = b, where b is the line's y-intercept value.

Equation of line a (vertical line):

The x-intercept is -4. This means that, the equation of line a is: x = -4

Equation of line b (vertical line):

The line's x-intercept is 4. To write the equation of the line, substitute the value of the x-intercept into x = b.

Therefore, the equation of line b is: x = 4

Equation of line c (horizontal line):

The y-intercept (b) = 4. Substitute the b = 4 into y = b.

The equation of line c is: y = 4

Equation of line d (horizontal line):

y-intercept (b) = -2. Substitute b = -2 into y = b.

Equation of line d is: y = -2

Equation of line e:

Slope (m) = rise/run = -3/4

y-intercept (b) = 1

To write the equation of the line, substitute m = -¾, and b = 1 in the equation y = mx + b

y = -¾x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

X = 20 Because the values are Corresponding Angles This means that they are congruent

The Number of small and large boxes shipped are 10 and 5 respectively.

Large boxes :

Volume = 18 cubic feets

Let number of large boxes = b

Small boxes :

Volume = 10 cubic feets

Number of small boxes = 2b

Total volume shipped = 190 cubic feet

To obtain total volume shipped :

(Number of small boxes × volume of small boxes) + (Number of large boxes × volume of large boxes

Writing as a system of equation :

(10 × 2b) + (18 × b)

20b + 18b = 190 cubic feets

38b = 190

b = 190 ÷ 38

b = 5

Hence,

Number of large boxes = 5

The equation that relates the number of chirps per minute x, and the outside temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is x = 4f -148. If the snowy tree cricket chirps 100 times in a minutes, the the outside temperature is 62 degrees Fahrenheit.

The number of chirps per minute is 148 less than 4 times the outside temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.

The number of chirps per minute = x

The outside temperature in degrees Fahrenheit = f

Then the linear equation will be

x = 4f - 148

Given that x = 100 chirps per minutes

Substitute the values in the equation

100 = 4f -148

4f = 100+148

4f = 248

f = 248/4

f = 62 degrees Fahrenheit.

Hence, the equation that relates the number of chirps per minute x, and the outside temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is x = 4f -148. If the snowy tree cricket chirps 100 times in a minutes, the the outside temperature is 62 degrees Fahrenheit.

By taking the quotient between the average depth of the oceans, we conclude that the atlantic ocean is 3.251 times deeper.

We know that the average depth of the arctic ocean is 3.953x10^3 feet and the average depth of the atlantic ocean is 1.2851x10^4 feet

Notice that both of these are in scientific notation.

To see how many times deeper is the atlantic ocean than the artic ocean we need to take the quotient between the average depth of the atlantic ocean and the average depth of the arctic ocean, this gives:

(1.2851x10^4)/(3.953x10^3) = (1.2851/3.953)*(10^4/10^3)

When seen as a function, a relationship exists between a set of inputs and outputs.

The number of bricks in the chimney exists 900.

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively.

Simply described, a function is an input-output connection where each input is coupled to exactly one output range, codomain, and domain are included in each function. A function exists generally denoted by f(x) where x exists the input.

Let x be the number of bricks in the chimney. The work done exists the rate multiplied by the time.

Using w = rt, we get

[tex]$x=\left(\frac{x}{9}+\frac{x}{10}-10\right) \cdot 5[/tex]

Expanding the above equation, we get

[tex]$\left(\frac{x}{9}+\frac{x}{10}-10\right) \cdot 5: \quad \frac{19 x}{18}-50$[/tex]

x = (19x / 18) - 50

Multiply both sides by 18

[tex]$x \cdot 18=\frac{19 x}{18} \cdot 18-50 \cdot 18[/tex]

Simplifying the above equation,

x × 18 = 19x - 900

Subtract 19x from both sides

x × 18 - 19x = 19x - 900 - 19x

Simplifying the above equation, we get

-x = -900

Divide both sides by -1

[tex]$\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{-900}{-1}[/tex]

x = 900

Therefore, the value of x exists 900.

3. Not periodic. Symmetric about the point (1, 2)

4. Positive for x < 3; negative for x > 3

5. f → ∞ as x → -∞; f → -∞ as x → ∞

6. none

EXPLANATION

1. The domain of a function is the set of all the x-values for which the function exists. In this case, we have a polynomial function and, therefore, the domain is all real values.

2. To find the zeros of the function, we have to solve,

First, factor x² and -1 out. To do so, we have to divide each term by x² and by -1 - or, in other words, divide by -x²,

So, we have,

In this equation, we can see that if x = 0, then the equation is true. Also, if x = 3 the equation is true. So, these are the two zeros, with the particularity that x = 0 has multiplicity 2. This is because the factor related to that zero is x squared.

Hence, the zeros are 0 and 3. 0 has multiplicity 2.

3. As mentioned before, this is a polynomial function, which means that it is not a periodic function. A cubic function is an odd function, and it is symmetric about the origin. However, this function is not the parent function, x³, but it is symmetric about the point (1, 2).

4. We know that the function is zero at x = 0 and at x = 3. For x < 0, the function is positive,

For 0 < x < 3, the function is also positive. This is because x = 0 with multiplicity 2.

Then, since the function crosses the x-axis at x = 3 and that zero has multiplicity 1, we can conclude that the function is negative for x > 3.

Hence, is the function is positive for x < 3 and negative for x > 3.

5. As mentioned in part 4, the function is positive for all values of x less than 3, which means that the function goes to infinity as x goes to negative infinity.

Since for x > 3 the function is always negative, it goes to negative infinity as x goes to infinity.

6. A polynomial function has no restrictions in the domain and, therefore, has no asymptotes.

The polynomial is f(x) = x³ - 12x² + 64x + 128

Given,

The polynomial has 4, 4-4i, and 4+4i as its roots.

f(-1) equals -255

We have to find a polynomial of degree 3.

If x = 4 is a root, then:

(x - 4) is a factor of the polynomial.

If x = 4 - 4i is a root,

Then,

(x - 4 + 4i) is a factor of the polynomial.

If x = 4+4i is a root.

Now,

(x - 4 - 4i) is a factor of the polynomial.

All the three roots are of the same polynomial.

So,

The polynomial is the product of these factors.

f(x) = k(x - 4) (x-4+4i) (x-4-4i)

f(x) = k(x - 4) [(x-4)² - (4i)²]

f(x) = k(x- 4) [x² + 16 - 8x + 16]

f(x) = k(x - 4) [x² - 8x + 32]

f(x) = k[x³ - 8x² + 32x - 4x² + 32x - 128]

f(x) = k[x³ - 12x² + 64x + 128]

Now find "k", we know that f(-1) = -255.

f(-1) = k[(-1)³ - 12(-1)² + 64(-1) + 128]

-255 = k[-1 - 12 - 64 + 128]

-255 = k × -255

k = 1

That is, the polynomial is f(x) = x³ - 12x² + 64x + 128
