again, we're assuming that both triangles are similar, and thus using proportions.

A graph of y=f(x) is given. No formula for f is given. Find the graph of g(x)=f(-1/2x).
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this, we'll need to understand the skeleton form of transformations and what each variable represents in the equation. We have y = a(x-h) + k, where a represents vertical scaling, h the horizontal shift, and k the vertical shift.
So in this case, we need to reflect the graph over the y axis and horizontally scale it by a factor of 2 (i.e. stretch the graph horizontally). The answer is B.
Evaluating Expressions with Real Numbers - Item 8069
Which statement best explains why this expression is equal to 1?
0.54 +0.27
0.24 + 0.57
Answer:
To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. For example 0.54+0.27 and 0.24 +0.57, If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression.
hope this helps.
(01.04 MC)The elevation of city A is 80 feet below sea level; the elevation of city C is 16 feet below sea level. The elevation of city D is 1 over 2 of the elevation of city C. Part A: Write an expression to represent the elevation, in feet, of city D. (5 points) Part B: Solve the expression and explain why the answer is negative or positive. (5 points)
A) The expression to represent the elevation in feet of city D is; ¹/₂ × (-16) ft
B) The solution to the expression of the elevation of City D is; -8 fr which is negative because it falls below sea level.
First of all, sea level is at 0 ft.
Thus;
If city A has an elevation of 80 ft below sea level, then;
Elevation of city A = -80 ft
The elevation of city C is 16 feet below sea level. Thus;
Elevation of city C = -16 ft
A) The elevation of city D is ¹/₂ of the elevation of city C. Thus;
Expression for Elevation of city D = ¹/₂ × (-16)
B) Solving the expression for elevation of city D gives;
Elevation of City D = -8 ft
The reason why the answer is negative is because any distance below sea level is considered to be negative and city C which is twice the elevation of city D is negative, and so city D must also have a negative elevation.

A restaurant bill comes to $28.35. Find the total cost if the tax is 6.25% and a 20% tip is left on the amount before tax.
Bill was for $28.35. A 20% tip would come to $5.67. If we add this tip to the $28.35 bill, we get a total of $28.35 + $5.67 + 0.0625($28.35)
= $35.79 (total)

SQ/PQ = TQ/RQ
From here, you need to decompose each of the sides PQ and RQ into parts. Then you can get to the desired relationship.
(PQ -PS)/PQ = (RQ -RT)/RQ . . . segment sum theorem
1 - PS/PQ = 1 -RT/RQ . . . . . . . do the division
-PS/PQ = -RT/RQ . . . . . . . . subtract 1 (subtraction property of equality)
PS/PQ = RT/RQ . . . . . . . . multiply by -1 (multiplication property of equality)

4) Change the recurring decimal 0.18 to a fraction. (2marks)
You must show all your working.
Answer:
18/100 or 9/50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put 0.18 over 100 because there are 2 digits in the decimal, so you convert it to 18/100. Then, simplify it, and because the GCF is 2, divide the numerator and denominator. The final fraction ins 9/50.
rewrite equation in slope - intercept form: (Solve for y)
2x-y=7
Answer:
y = 2x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not really sure this is the slope-intercept form, as I've never called it like that before, but if it is, there you go.
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf y = 2x - 7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is:
2x - y = 7
Add y to both sides
2x = 7 + y
Invert the equation
7 + y = 2x
Subtract 7 to both sides
y = 2x - 7
This is the required equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

~AH1807The scale of a map is known to be 1: 500 000. Find the actual distance (in km) between a mall and the bus interchange if the represented distance on the map is 3.2 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
when the scale says 1:500000, then that means 1 unit in the map corresponds to 500000 units in reality.
and so, 3.2 cm on the map are
3.2 × 500000 cm in reality.
3.2 × 500000 = 1,600,000 cm = 16,000 m = 16 km

I can write an equation
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
slope m is found as the change in y over the change in x
as y decreases 3 units for a 3 unit increase in x, the slope is -3/3 = -1
The y intercept b is where the plot crosses the y axis, 4 units above the x axis
y = -1x + 4
or
y = 4 - x

Proportional and linear functions are very similar. The only difference is the addition of the “b” constant to the linear function. A proportional relationship is just a linear relationship where B = 0, or where the line passes through the origin (0, 0).

A shed has dimensions of 12m in length and 5 m in width. Both the length and
width are increased by the same amount in order to increase the floor area by
more than double the original area. What is the amount of the increase in length?
Answer:
Length = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
It says, " Both the length and width are increased by the same amount..." this means that both 12m and 5m were increased. So 12 + 12 = 24 and 5 + 5 = 10.

6. (5 points) Graph using two intercepts; show your work in finding the intercepts. 6x - 3y = 18
х
Answer:
Divide both sides by 18. The new coefficients will be the reciprocals of the intercepts:
[tex]6x-3y=18 \rightarrow \frac6{18}x - \frac3{18}y = 1 \rightarrow \frac x3-\frac y6 =1[/tex] The two intercepts are then 3 and -6.
(I know, dividing by 3 both sides of the equations would have made the whole process way easier).
Alternatively, plug x = 0 to find the y intercept and y=0 to find the x intercept. Either way the graph will look something like the one I'm sketching on paint.
