So both shawn and brielle are correct since both function will have the same answer, because it will just cancel out the sign.</span>

Answer:

The absolute value parent function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.  

The graphs of f(x) = 2|–x| and f(x) = 2|x| are identical because the absolute value of negative x is a reflection across the y-axis.  

If you substitute the three given points into both functions, they produce true statements.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represent a function?
Yuri [45]

Make XY tables for each option.

If any of the Tables have identical X numbers it is not a function.

The first option has two X's that re 2, so is not a function.

Second option has 2 x's that are 4's, so is not a function.

The third option has no repeating X values so is a function.

The fourth option has two -2's and two 0's so ids not a function.

The function is the third choice:

On a coordinate plane, solid circles appear at the following points: (negative 3, 2), (negative 2, 2), (0, 1), (1, 3), (2, negative 4), (4, negative 1).

Teagan believes she can use a division expression to find the amount of pizza each of 6 friends will eat if they share Four-fift
serg [7]

Answer:

Option (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Total no of friends are 6

The share of each friend is 4/5

Pizza eaten by each friend is equal to the total pizza eaten divided by total no of friends. It can be given by :

=\dfrac{\dfrac{4}{5}}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{5}\times \dfrac{1}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{15}

It means that Teagan is correct in using a division expression because the question is about splitting a value into equal parts.  Hence, the correct option is (b).

While on a trip, you notice that the video screen on the airplane, in addition to showing movies and news, records your altitude
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

It descends 3 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the slope. The formula for slope is

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the first two points, (0, 12) and (2, 10), we have

m = (10-12)/(2-0) = -2/2 = -1

This means the plane descends 1 km per minute.  This means in 3 minutes' time, the plane descends 3 km.

A sports club needs to raise at least $500 by selling chocolate bars for $2.50 each. Sebastian wants to know how many chocolate
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The inequality should be written as $2.50 times c is greater than or equal to c.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, identify what you know:

1) Each chocolate bar is $2.50

2) Sebastian needs to raise at least $500

So, Sebastian needs to sell at least enough chocolate bars to hit $500. The inequality cannot be written as less than or equal to, because he can't sell less than the number of chocolate bars needed to make $500.

Automatically, I can calculate the minimum number of bars he'll need to sell.

500/2.50 = 200 chocolate bars minimum

c must equal greater than or equal to $500, for Sebastian to raise enough money! So, basically Sebastian has to sell 200 bars OR more.

Hope this helps! :)
