Functions f(x) and g(x) are shown below:

f(x) = x2
g(x) = x2 − 8x + 16

In which direction and by how many units should f(x) be shifted to obtain g(x)?


Left by 4 units

Right by 4 units

Left by 8 units

Right by 8 units

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B, Right by 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to factor g(x), and the factorization of that would be (x - 4)² as its a perfect square trinomial

when translating on a graph, we determine the translation. the translation of g(x) is a horizontal shift 4 units to the right, as we are subtracting 4. if it was adding 4, we would be shifting to the left 4 units

Answer 2

ANSWER

Right by 4 units

EXPLANATION

The given functions are

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} [/tex]

and

[tex]g(x) = {x}^{2} - 8x + 16[/tex]

To obtain how much f(x) is shifted to obtain g(x), we need to rewrite g(x) in vertex form.

Observe that,

[tex]g(x) = {x}^{2} - 8x + ( - 4) ^{2} [/tex]

is a perfect square trinomial.

The vertex form is

[tex]g(x) = {(x - 4)}^{2} [/tex]

When f(x) is shifted 4 units to the right, we obtain g(x).

A multiple choice test has five questions each with 5 possible answers. Find the probability of guessing the correct answers to all of the questions

Answers

Answer:

5/25 or 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5 questions, each has 5 possible answers, 5x5=25 each question had 1 correct answer so 5 right answers in the whole test. 5/25 but if u need to simplify, 1/5

Answer: Probability of guessing all 5 correctly: 1/3125 = 0.032%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of guessing the first question correctly:  1/5

For that 1/5 of the time when the first question has been guessed correctly, the second question could be guessed correctly 1/5 of the time. So the first two questions could be guessed correctly 1/5 × 1/5 = (1/5)^2 of the time.

Similarly the first three questions could be guessed correctly (1/5)^3 of the time.

and the first four, 1/5)^4 of the time;

and all fives,

(1/5)^5 of the time.

(1/5)^5 = 1/3125 = 0.00032 = 0.032%

solve for x.
9(x - 6) = 8(x + 6)

Answers

Answer:

x=102

Step-by-step explanation:

9x-54=8x+48

subtract 8x from both sides

x-54=48

add 54 to both sides

x=102

Answer:

x = 102

Step-by-step explanation:

9(x + -6) = 8(x + 6)

Reorder the terms:

9(-6 + x) = 8(x + 6)

(-6 * 9 + x * 9) = 8(x + 6)

(-54 + 9x) = 8(x + 6)

Reorder the terms:

-54 + 9x = 8(6 + x)

-54 + 9x = (6 * 8 + x * 8)

-54 + 9x = (48 + 8x)

Solving

-54 + 9x = 48 + 8x

Add '-8x' to each side of the equation.

-54 + 9x + -8x = 48 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 9x + -8x = 1x

-54 + 1x = 48 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0

-54 + 1x = 48 + 0

-54 + 1x = 48

Add '54' to each side of the equation.

-54 + 54 + 1x = 48 + 54

Combine like terms: -54 + 54 = 0

0 + 1x = 48 + 54

1x = 48 + 54

Combine like terms: 48 + 54 = 102

1x = 102

Divide each side by '1'.

x = 102

Campbell's is designing a new label for their soup cans that covers the entire side of the can The soup can has a height of 8 inches and a radius of 2.5 inches. Determine how much material is needed to create each label.

Answers

Answer:

When π is approximated, 125.68, or 40π

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference formula is 2πr

This is approx: 15.71

Multiply that by 8 to find the surface area of the side of the can.

The answer is 125.68.

HOWEVER, if you are expressing this without approximating π,

it would be 5(Pi), then multiply by 8, and we would get 40π

So un-simplified is 40π

Final answer:

The amount of material needed to create each label for Campbell's soup cans is 40π square inches.

Explanation:

To determine the amount of material needed to create each label for Campbell's soup cans, we need to find the lateral surface area of the can. The lateral surface area is the area of the curved surface. Assuming the label covers the entire side of the can, we need to find the area of the curved surface which can be calculated using the formula:

Lateral Surface Area = 2 * π * radius * height

Substituting the given values, we have:

Lateral Surface Area = 2 * π * 2.5 * 8 = 40π square inches.

A soup can has a diameter of 8 centimeters and a height of 15 centimeters. About how much soup does the can hold? Use 3.14 for pi. Round to the nearest tenth.

Chef Katrina uses 1 cup of pecans for every 3 cups of peanuts in her Merry Munch Mix. One cup of pecans costs $ 4.99 and one cup of peanuts costs $2.25. If the cost for nuts in a batch of Merry Munch Mix is $35.22, how many cups of each type of nut were used?

Answers

Final answer:

Chef Katrina used 3 cups of pecans and 9 cups of peanuts for her Merry Munch Mix, totaling $35.22 based on the given prices of $4.99 per cup of pecans and $2.25 per cup of peanuts.

Explanation:

Calculating the Quantities of Pecans and Peanuts in the Merry Munch Mix

Chef Katrina uses a ratio of 1 cup of pecans to 3 cups of peanuts in her mix. We are given the cost per cup of pecans as $4.99 and the cost per cup of peanuts as $2.25. The total cost of nuts in the mix is $35.22.

To solve this, let's denote the number of cups of pecans used as p and the number of cups of peanuts as 3p (since there are three times as many peanuts as pecans). The total cost for pecans would be p times $4.99 and for peanuts 3p times $2.25.

Our equation based on the total cost is:
4.99p + 2.25(3p) = 35.22
4.99p + 6.75p = 35.22
11.74p = 35.22

Dividing both sides by 11.74 to solve for p:
p = 35.22 / 11.74
p = 3 cups of pecans

As there are three times more peanuts than pecans:
3p = 3 * 3 = 9 cups of peanuts

Therefore, Chef Katrina used 3 cups of pecans and 9 cups of peanuts in her Merry Munch Mix.

P.S this questions is important ,so answer it fast

Thank you

Answers

Answer:

990 deers is ONE possible answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we don't know anything else than the perimeter, we don't know the exact dimensions of the park.

For example, it could be 10 x 11 miles, perimeter is 42, but the area is 110 sq miles.

It could also be 9 x 12 miles, perimeter is again 42, but the area is now 110 sq miles.

It could be a 1 x 20 miles park, perimeter is again 42, but the area is just 20 sq miles.

And it could be many other dimensions scenarios.  That affect of course the calculation result.

For this answer, I'll assume the park is 10x11 miles, for an area of 110 sq miles.

Since the estimation is that there's 9 deeps for square mile... that means that for a park measuring 10x11 miles, there would be 990 deers (9 * 110).

The regular price of a television set is $1,200. Albert buys the television set at a discount of 35% . How much does he pay for the television set?​

Answers

He pays $780 for the television set.

1200*.35=420

1200-420=780

Albert pays $780 for the television set after receiving a 35% discount on the original price of $1,200.

The regular price of a television set is $1,200. To calculate the price Albert would pay after receiving a 35% discount, you need to calculate the discount amount and subtract it from the original price. The discount can be calculated by multiplying the original price by the discount percentage.

Discount = Original Price × Discount Percentage = $1,200 ×0.35 = $420

Now subtract the discount from the original price:

Final Price = Original Price - Discount = $1,200 - $420 = $780

Therefore, Albert pays $780 for the television set.

Hobby Shop is selling model cars and model trucks for 50% off this week. At the sale price, you can buy one car and one truck for $13.00. Also at the sale price, you can buy 4 trucks and 2 cars for $42.00. What is the sale price and the original price of the model car and the model truck?

Answers

Answer:

The truck original price is $16.00 and the car price is $5.00.

The truck sale price is $8.00 and the car price is $10.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the original price of the truck (T) and car (C)

Sale price of the truck is 50% so that means it is half the original price.

Now let's see the equations we can come up with there:

At sale price:

[tex]T + C = \$13.00\\\\4T + 2C = \$42.00[/tex]

We can solve this through substitution.

Using the first equation, we can come up with an equation for one of the missing variables.

[tex]T + C =\$13.00\\\\C = \$13.00 - T[/tex]

We can use this equation on the second one, to solve for one variable. [tex]4T + 2C = \$42.00\\\\4T + 2(\$13.00-T) = \$42.00\\\\4T + \$26.00 - 2T = \$42.00\\\\4T - 2T = \$42.00 - \$26.00\\\\2T = \$16.00\\\\\dfrac{2T}{2}=\dfrac{\$16.00}{2}\\\\T = \$8.00[/tex]

The sale price of the model truck is $8.00.

Now can use this on the first equation again.

[tex]T + C = \$13.00\\\\\$8.00 + C = \$13.00\\\\C = \$13.00 - \$8.00\\\\C = \$5.00[/tex]

The sale price of the model car is $5.00.

Because it is 50% off on both models, the original price is twice the sale price. So we can solve it by multiplying the sale prices by 2.

Original price of model truck: $8.00 x 2 = $16.00

Original price of model car: $5.00 x 2 = $10.00

Answer:

The truck's original is $16. The sale price is $8. The car's original is $10. It's sale is $5.

Which of these sentences from the passage most directly expresses the author's claim? "If we give up trying to make the right decisions, they might get the message that we don't care about their future.* "We can take comfort in this much: we teach our children even when we're not trying to." "Shielding our children from [mistakes] by striving for perfection in our own parenting does them no favors."I think its BDespite our best efforts as parents, we will always make mistakes in raising our children. It's inevitable. There are so many decisions to be made in any given day, week, month, or year. It's an inhuman task to make all of these decisions correctly. Who would even want to try for perfection?We shouldn't worry too much, though, because it is precisely our mistakes that teach our children the most about life. Life is full of mistakes, obstacles, and trouble. Shielding our children from these by striving for perfection in our own parenting does them no favors.Given this, a parent might be tempted to give up trying to make good decisions and simply let the chips fall where they may. Admittedly, that attitude is not without its benefits, but it goes too far in the other direction. Children are much more observant than we think, but often draw the wrong conclusions from what they observe. If we give up trying to make the right decisions, they might get the message that we don't care about their future.We can take comfort in this much: we teach our children even when we're not trying to. That doesn't mean we should stop trying to do our best, to make the right decisions whenever possible. It just means that we shouldn't beat ourselves up when we make mistakes. Either it won't matter because it's something small, or it just might build some character in our children, a commodity that will serve them well.
