Im guessing its asking what y equals, subtract 3y from each side, the result is 2y-6=-20, add six to each side to get 2y=-14, divide each side by 2, the answer is.....
Y= -7

Minus 3y both sides
2y-6=-20
add 6 to both sids
2y=-14
divide 2
y=-7

At the start of the month, Stephen’s savings account had a balance of $1,624. He made a $420 withdrawal each week for four weeks

goldenfox [79]

420 x 4 = 1,680. $1,624 - $1,680 = - $56. $600 x 2 = 1,200 + 1000 = 2,200. This minus the $56 he overdrew = an end of month balance of $2,144.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy was built between 1173 and 1350. A. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the yellow

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image of the leaning tower of Pisa, we can see that it passes through the point (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42).

a) The equation of a line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Also, the equation of line passing through

$(x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)\ is:\\\\y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)$

Hence since it passes through (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42), the equation is:

$y-0=\frac{42-0}{10.75-7.75} (x-7.75)\\\\y=14(x-7.75)\\\\y=14x-108.5$

b) When the tower is 56 meters tall, i.e. y = 56, we need to find the value of x:

y = 14x - 108.5

56 = 14x - 108.5

56 + 108.5 = 14x

164.5=14x

x = 164.5/14

x = 11.75

When the tower is 56 meters tall, the top of the tower is 11.75 m off center

The measure of central angle XYZ is StartFraction 3 pi Over 4 EndFraction radians. What is the area of the shaded sector? 32Pi u

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

<em>96π units²</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Area of a sector is expressed as;

Area of a sector = θ/2π * πr²

Given

θ = 3π/4

r = 16

Substitute into the formula

area of the sector = (3π/4)/2π * π(16)²

area of the sector = 3π/8π * 256π

area of the sector = 3/8 * 256π

area of the sector = 3 * 32π

<em>area of the sector =96π units²</em>

Let f(x)=−3x. The graph of f(x) is transformed into the graph of g(x) by a vertical stretch of 4 units and a translation of 4 u

deff fn [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Ques 1)

$g(x)=-12x+48$

Ques 2)

$g(x)=|3x|+4$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Ques 1)

We know that if a graph is stretched by a factor of a then the transformation if given by:

f(x) → a f(x)

Also, we know that the translation of a function k units to the right or to the left is given by:

f(x) → f(x+k)

where if k>0 then the shift is k units to the left

and if k<0 then the shift is k units to the right.

Here the graph of f(x) is transformed into the graph of g(x) by a vertical stretch of 4 units and a translation of 4 units right.

This means that the function g(x) is given by:

$g(x)=4f(x-4)\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=4(-3(x-4))\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=-12(x-4)\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=-12x+48$

Ques 2)

We know that the transformation of the type:

f(x) → f(x)+k

is a shift or translation of the function k units up or down depending on k.

If k>0 then the shift is k units up.

and if k<0 then the shift is k units down.

Here, The graph of the function f(x)=|3x| is translated 4 units up.

This means that the transformed function g(x) is given by:

$g(x)=|3x|+4$
