Which points are on the graph of the equation -3x + 6y + 5 = -7?

Which function has a vertex on the y-axis?

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you expand out the expression, you should get f(x) = x² - 4, where only vertical movement is present. Therefore, the vertex is on the y-int at (0, -4) and your answer is the 3rd choice.

ΔABC underwent a sequence of rigid transformations to give ΔA′B′C′. Which transformations might have taken place?

Papessa [141]

Answer: The correct option is second, a rotation $90^{\circ}$ clockwise about the origin followed by a reflection across the x-axis.

Explanation:

From the given figure it is noticed that the vertices of ΔABC are A(-6,4), B(-4,6), C(-2,2) and vertices of ΔA'B'C' are A'(4,-6), B(6,-4), C(2,-2).

It means if the point is P(x,y) then after transformation it will be P'(y,x).

If a point P(x,y) reflection across the y-axis followed by a reflection across the x-axis, then the image of point after transformation will be P'(-x,-y), therefore it is not the correct option.

If a shape is rotated $90^{\circ}$ clockwise about the origin then the point P(x,y) will be P'(y,-x) and after that reflect across the x-axis, so the point after transformation will be P'(y,x), therefore it is the correct option.

If a shape is rotated $270^{\circ}$ clockwise about the origin then the point P(x,y) will be P'(-y,x) and after that reflect across the x-axis, so the point after transformation will be P'(-y,-x), therefore it is not the correct option.

If a point P(x,y) reflection across the x-axis followed by a reflection across the y-axis, then the image of point after transformation will be P'(-x,-y), therefore it is not the correct option.

Hence, the correct option is second, a rotation $90^{\circ}$ clockwise about the origin followed by a reflection across the x-axis.

An ant begins at the top of the pictured octahedron. If the ant takes two "steps", what is the probability it ends up at the bot

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$P_{bottom}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from the top, the ant can only take four different directions, all of them going down, every direction has a probability of 1/4. For the second step, regardless of what direction the ant walked, it has 4 directions: going back (or up), to the sides (left or right) and down. If the probability of the first step is 1/4 for each direction and once the ant has moved one step, there are 4 directions with the same probability (1/4 again), the probability of taking a specific path is the multiplication of the probability of these two steps:

$P_{2steps}=\frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}$
