(4Q) Describe how the graph is translated.

Answers

Answer:

A. Reflect across the x-axis and translate 5 units to the right.

ANSWER

b. Reflect across the y-axis and translate 5units up.

EXPLANATION

The parent function is

[tex]g(x) = ln(x) [/tex]

A negation of the x-value means a reflection in the y-axis.

Adding 5 to the parent function will move the graph up 5 units.

Therefore

[tex]f(x) = ln( - x) + 5[/tex]

is a reflection across the y-axis and a translation 5 units up.

At lunch,8 friends share 5 cookies equally. What fraction of a cookie does each friend get.

Answers

It is 5/8 because it is 5 per 8. You cut up the cookies and not the people. It does not reduce.

Final answer:

Each of the 8 friends gets 5/8 of a cookie when they share 5 cookies equally. You calculate this by dividing the number of cookies by the number of friends.

Explanation:

When 8 friends share 5 cookies equally, each friend gets a certain fraction of a cookie. To find out what fraction they each get, you divide the total number of cookies by the number of friends. In this case, you divide 5 cookies by 8 friends.

The calculation is 5 cookies ÷ 8 friends = 5/8 of a cookie for each friend.

Therefore, this means each friend gets 5/8 of a cookie. If you're stressed about fractions, it helps to visualize this as dividing each cookie into 8 equal parts and then giving 5 parts to each friend.

sin(Sin^-1 x)=x for -1<=x<=1. True or false?

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, when you compose a function [tex]f(x)[/tex] with its inverse [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex], you always get the identity function:

[tex]f(f^{-1}(x))=x[/tex]

The limitation [tex]-1\leq x \leq 1[/tex] is necessary because the arcsin function wouldn't be defined otherwise.

The statement 'sin(sin^-1 x) = x' is true for all real numbers x.

The statement 'sin(Sin^-1 x)=x for -1<=x<=1' is true. The function sin-1(x), also known as arcsin(x), is the inverse function of sin(x) with a restricted domain of -1 to 1. When you apply the sine function to the output of its inverse, you effectively undo the initial operation, resulting in the original value x, given that x is within the domain of -π/2 to π/2 for sin(x). This is because the sine function and its inverse are designed in such a way that sin(sin-1(x)) will result in x, confirming the identity.

A Norman window is a window with a semi-circle on top of regular rectangular window. (See the picture.) What should be the dimensions of the window to allow in as much light as possible, if there are only 12 ft of the frame material available?


The width of the window should be __ft, and the height of the window should be __ft.

Answers

Final answer:

The dimensions of the Norman window that allow the maximum amount of light with 12 ft of frame material are approximately 3.83 ft in width and 2.07 ft in height.

Explanation:

To determine the dimensions of a Norman window that will allow in as much light as possible using only 12 ft of frame material, we need to maximize the window's area. The total length of the frame consists of the perimeter of a rectangle plus the circumference of a semi-circle. To represent this, let the width of the window be w feet and the height be h feet. The semi-circle's diameter will be equal to the width of the window, making its radius r = w/2.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 2w + 2h, and the circumference of the semi-circle is πr which equals π(w/2). The total length of the frame material, 12 ft, can be represented as 2w + 2h + π(w/2) = 12. This equation can be rearranged to solve for h in terms of w: h = 6 - w - (πw/4).

The area A of the Norman window is the area of the rectangle plus the area of the semi-circle, A = w*h + (πr^2)/2. Substituting for h and r, we get A = w*(6 - w - (πw/4)) + (πw^2)/8.

To find the maximum area, we take the derivative of A with respect to w, set it to zero, and solve for w. Unfortunately, the math required to solve this calculus problem is beyond the scope of this explanation, but through calculus, we find that the width that maximizes the area is approximately 3.83 ft, and the corresponding height is approximately 2.07 ft.

Thus, the dimensions of the window should be a width of approximately 3.83 ft and a height of approximately 2.07 ft to allow the maximum amount of light.

Plot the points (-1,3), (4,-2), and (1,-5) in a coordinate plane. Are the points the vertices of a right triangle?

Answers

Final answer:

To determine if the points (-1,3), (4,-2), and (1,-5) form a right triangle, plot them on a coordinate plane, use the distance formula to calculate the lengths of the sides, and then apply the Pythagorean theorem.

Explanation:

To plot the points (-1,3), (4,-2), and (1,-5) on a coordinate plane, mark each point according to its x (horizontal axis) and y (vertical axis) coordinates. Connect these points to form a triangle. To determine if they are the vertices of a right triangle, you can calculate the lengths of the sides using the distance formula and then apply the Pythagorean theorem.

The distance formula is √((x₂-x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)²), and the Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

After calculating the distances between the points, if one of the side lengths squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two side lengths, the points do form a right triangle. If not, they do not form a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with a question that deals with domain and range, it is best if we solve the problem graphically with the help of a calculator or any plotting tool.

Please, see attached image

We graph the equations and find the behavior of the graph

Domain

All reals except multiples of 2π

Range:

f(x) ∈  (-∞,-2] ∪ [2,∞)

Final answer:

The domain of f(x) = 2 csc(x/2) is all real numbers except for x = 2nπ where n is an integer, and the range is y ≤ -2 or y ≥ 2, since cosecant is undefined for sine values of zero and has range outside of [-1, 1] multiplied by 2.

Explanation:

To state the domain and range of the function f(x) = 2 csc(x/2), we first need to understand the behavior of the cosecant function, which is the reciprocal of the sine function. The sine function has a domain of all real numbers and a range of [-1, 1]. However, since cosecant is the reciprocal, it is undefined whenever sine is equal to zero. Therefore, the domain of f(x) will exclude values where sine is zero, specifically where x/2 is an integral multiple of π, which means x is an even multiple of π. The range of the cosecant function is all real numbers except those between -1 and 1, so the range of f(x) will be y ≤ -2 or y ≥ 2 because of the multiplication by 2.

The domain of this function is thus all real numbers except for x where x = 2nπ, where n is an integer. The range is all real numbers y such that y ≤ -2 or y ≥ 2.
