Answer:

Vertical Compression by factor of 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two methods:

Method 1. Transformations

Method 2. Algebraic input-output tables

Method 1. Transformations

The Main concept of this question is about Transformations of functions -- specifically, multiplying on the outside by a positive number less than 1.

The transformation that occurs when multiplying a function by a positive number on the outside of the function is a vertical stretch or compression.

Positive numbers larger than 1 will stretch it vertically, whereas positive numbers smaller than 1 will compress it vertically.

Therefore, multiplying by 1/4 on the outside, a positive number less than 1, will vertically compress the function down to one-fourth the size.

This means that for g(x), all points on the original function f will have their heights reduced to 1/4 their original height (or depth) -- making all points on g(x) 1/4 their previous distance from the x-axis on the "f" function.

Method 2. Algebraic input-output tables

Observe on the graph three points on the function f:

Using the equation relating f and g, [tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{4}f(x)[/tex], we can find how those points would look like on the new function g(x).

For [tex]f(0)=0[/tex]

[tex]g(0)=\frac{1}{4}[f(0)]\\g(0)=\frac{1}{4}[0]\\g(0)=0[/tex]

For [tex]f(1)=4[/tex]

[tex]g(1)=\frac{1}{4}[f(1)]\\g(1)=\frac{1}{4}[4]\\g(1)=1[/tex]

For [tex]f(3)=0[/tex]

[tex]g(3)=\frac{1}{4}[f(3)]\\g(3)=\frac{1}{4}[0]\\g(3)=0[/tex]

These known points should correctly identify the graph from the possible choices.

There are infinitely many possible solutions for the lengths of the three sides of the triangle.

What is triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. It is a fundamental geometric shape and is often used in geometry and trigonometry.

If we call x the length of the smallest side, then the other two sides are x+1 and x+2 (since they are three consecutive integers). According to the triangle inequality, the sum of any pair of sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

Therefore, we have:

x + (x+1) > (x+2) (and also x + (x+2) > (x+1) and (x+1) + (x+2) > x)

Simplifying each inequality, we get:

2x + 1 > x + 2 (and also 2x + 2 > x + 1 and 2x + 3 > x)

Which gives:

x > 1

So the smallest side must be greater than 1 cm.

Now, to find the length of the three sides, we can choose any value greater than 1 for x. For example, if we take x=2, then the three sides are:

2 cm, 3 cm, and 4 cm

If we take x=3, then the three sides are:

3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm

And so on. Therefore, there are infinitely many possible solutions for the lengths of the three sides of the triangle.

The function f(x) = –2x^3 + 39x^2 -216x + 6 has one local minimum at x = 4 and one local maximum at x = 9.

To determine if the function f(x) = –2x^3 + 39x^2 -216x + 6 has a local minimum or maximum, we need to find the critical points of the function and then determine the nature of those critical points.

First, we take the derivative of the function to find the critical points:

f(x) = –2x^3 + 39x^2 -216x + 6

f'(x) = –6x^2 + 78x - 216

f'(x) = –6(x^2 - 13x + 36)

f'(x) = –6(x - 4)(x - 9)

Setting f'(x) = 0, we get:

–6(x - 4)(x - 9) = 0

This gives us two critical points at x = 4 and x = 9.

To determine the nature of these critical points, we need to look at the sign of the derivative on either side of each critical point.

When x < 4, we have:

f'(x) = –6(x^2 - 13x + 36) < 0

When 4 < x < 9, we have:

f'(x) = –6(x^2 - 13x + 36) > 0

When x > 9, we have:

f'(x) = –6(x^2 - 13x + 36) < 0

This means that f(x) is decreasing on the interval (–∞, 4), increasing on the interval (4, 9), and decreasing on the interval (9, ∞). Therefore, we have a local minimum at x = 4 and a local maximum at x = 9.

To confirm this, we can evaluate the function at these critical points:

f(4) = –2(4)^3 + 39(4)^2 -216(4) + 6 = –26

f(9) = –2(9)^3 + 39(9)^2 -216(9) + 6 = 603

Therefore, the function f(x) = –2x^3 + 39x^2 -216x + 6 has one local minimum at x = 4 and one local maximum at x = 9.

Sariah has just begun training for a half-marathon, which is 13.1 miles. There are 6 weeks of training runs remaining before the race. In her first week of training, Sariah ran 3 miles. She ran 4.5 miles the second week and 6 miles the third week.

To determine if there is enough time left in the training program for her to get up to half-marathon distance, let's analyze the pattern of her weekly increases in distance:

Week 2 - Week 1 = 4.5 miles - 3 miles = 1.5 miles increase
Week 3 - Week 2 = 6 miles - 4.5 miles = 1.5 miles increase

Sariah is consistently increasing her weekly mileage by 1.5 miles. With 3 weeks of training already completed, she has 3 more weeks to go. Let's see if she can reach the half-marathon distance of 13.1 miles:

Week 4: 6 miles + 1.5 miles = 7.5 miles
Week 5: 7.5 miles + 1.5 miles = 9 miles
Week 6: 9 miles + 1.5 miles = 10.5 miles

So unfortunately, the series (n + 16)(n + 18) diverges to infinity and does not have a finite sum.To find the sum S of the series (n + 16)(n + 18), we need to take the limit of the sequence of partial sums as n approaches infinity. So let's first find the formula for the nth partial sum sn:

sn = (1 + 16)(1 + 18) + (2 + 16)(2 + 18) + ... + (n + 16)(n + 18)
  = ∑[(k + 16)(k + 18)] (from k = 1 to n)

Using the formula for the sum of squares, we can expand each term in the sum:

(k + 16)(k + 18) = k^2 + 34k + 288

So now we have:

sn = ∑(k^2 + 34k + 288) (from k = 1 to n)
  = ∑k^2 + 34∑k + 288n (from k = 1 to n)
  = n(n + 1)(2n + 1)/6 + 34n(n + 1)/2 + 288n

Now we can take the limit of sn as n approaches infinity to find S:

S = lim[n → ∞] sn

To determine the appropriate fraction for the line plot, we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of all the pencil lengths, and then express each length as an equivalent fraction with the GCF as the denominator.

The GCF of the pencil lengths is 1. Therefore, we can simply express each pencil length as an equivalent fraction with 1 as the denominator:

3/1, 7/1, 8/1, 5/1, 1/1, 4/1, 6/1, 8/1, 4/1, 2/1, 5/1

Now, we can see that the smallest unit increment we can use on the line plot is 1/8. This is because 1/8 is the smallest fraction that can represent all of the pencil lengths above the label (5/8, which is equivalent to 10/16).

Therefore, the students should use 1/8 as the fraction for the line plot.

The exact volume of the composite figure with a cylinder of height and diameter 3.5 feet and a hemisphere on top is 49.92 cubic feet.

To find the volume of the composite figure, we need to add the volumes of the cylinder and the hemisphere on top of it.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:

V_cylinder = π[tex]r^2[/tex]h

where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is its height.

The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is:

V_hemisphere = (2/3)π[tex]r^3[/tex]

where r is the radius of the hemisphere.

In this case, the diameter of the cylinder is given as 3.5 feet, so the radius is half of that, or 1.75 feet. The height of the cylinder is also given as 3.5 feet. Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is:

V_cylinder = π(1.75[tex])^2[/tex](3.5) ≈ 32.67 cubic feet

To find the volume of the hemisphere, we need to first find its radius. Since the diameter of the cylinder is also the diameter of the hemisphere, the radius of the hemisphere is also 1.75 feet. Therefore, the volume of the hemisphere is:

V_hemisphere = (2/3)π(1.75[tex])^3[/tex] ≈ 17.25 cubic feet

Finally, we add the volumes of the cylinder and hemisphere to get the total volume of the composite figure:

V_total = V_cylinder + V_hemisphere

≈ 32.67 + 17.25
