Answer:

x = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. ATQ,

\dfrac{3}{4}(x-7)=-15

The above equation shows Three-fourths of the difference of a number and 7 is negative fifteen. We need to find the number.

cross multiplying both sides,

3(x-7)=-60\\\\x-7=-20\\\\x=-20+7\\\\x=-13

So, the number is -13.

A wall in Maria’s bedroom is in the shape of a trapezoid. The wall can be divided into a rectangle and a triangle. Using the 45°
Radda [10]
A wall is in the shape of a trapezoid and it can be divided into a rectangle and a triangle. A triangle is with angles 45°- 45° - 90°. The hypotenuse of that triangle is 13√2 ft.Using the 45° - 45° - 90° theorem, sides of that triangle are in the proportion:x : x : x√2, and since that x√2 = 13√2 ( hypotenuse ),  x = 13.Therefore h = 13 ft.We can check it: c² = 13² + 13²,c² = 169 + 169c² = 338c = √ 338 = 13√2Answer: h = 13 ft

HELP!!<br> What is the equation of the circle shown in the graph?
ale4655 [162]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x +6)^2 +(y -4)^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The center is (-6, 4) and the radius is 6. Putting those into the standard form equation, you have ...

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . . center (h, k), radius r

  (x -(-6))^2 +(y -4)^2 = 6^2 . . . . numbers filled in

  (x +6)^2 +(y -4)^2 = 36 . . . . . . cleaned up a bit

If the point (4,-1) is a point on the graph of f then f
AlekseyPX

If the point (4,-1) is a point on the graph of y = f(x). The corresponding point on the graph of y = g(x) is: (4,-1/2), (2,-1), (-1,-1), (1,4), (4,-4), (-12,1)

  1. g(x) = \frac{1}{2} f(x) => (4,-1/2)
  2. g(x) = f(x-2) => (2,-1)
  3. g(x) = f(-x) => (-1,-1)
  4. g(x) = f(4x) => (1,4)
  5. g(x) = 4f(x) => (4,-4)
  6. g(x) = -f(x) => (-12,1)
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
  1. Dividing the function by 2 divides all the y-values by 2 as well. So to get the new point, we will take the y-value (-1) and divide it by 2 to get 2.  Therefore, the new point is  (4,-1/2)
  2. Subtracting 2 from the input of the function makes all of the x-values increase by 2 (in order to compensate for the subtraction). We will need to add 2 to the x-value (4) to get 2.  Therefore, the new point is (2,-1)
  3. Making the input of the function negative will multiply every x-value by  1.  To get the new point, we will take the x-value (4) and multiply it by -1  to get. Therefore, the new point is (-1,-1)
  4. Multiplying the input of the function by 4 makes all of the x-values be divided by 4 (in order to compensate for the multiplication). We will need to divide the x-value (4) by 4 to get 1.  Therefore, the new point is  (1,4)
  5. Multiplying the whole function by  4 increases all y-values by a factor of 4 , so the new y-value will be 4  times the original value (4) or -4.  Therefore, the new point is  (4,-4)
  6. Multiplying the whole function by -1 also multiplies every y-value by -1,  so the new y-value will be  -1 times the original value (-1). or 1. Therefore, the new point is (-12,1)
