Give the new coordinates if the point (4,-6) is transformed in the following manner: reflected across the y-axis: (4,6)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "vertically compressed by a factor of one-half: (4,3)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " and translated 6 units to the right: (10,3)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2- A rectangle is enclosed by the x-axis and the graph of y= 3-|1/2 x|, with two vertices on the x-axis and two vertices on the given function. What are the dimensions of the rectangle that will yield the maximum area?
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C3-abs%280.5x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Let the base vertices be (-x,0) and (x,0).
\n" ); document.write( "The base width = 2x
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "altitude = 3 -(1/2)x
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Area = 2x(3-(1/2)x) = -x^2+6x
\n" ); document.write( "Maximum occurs when x = -b/2a = -6/(-2) = 3
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A(3) = -(3)^2 + 6*3 = 9 (That is the maximum area)
\n" ); document.write( "======================================================
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3- Suppose f is a function such that for all real number x. f(x-4) = x^2-2x. Find f(x)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Since f(x) had moved 4 to the right when it became f(x-4)
\n" ); document.write( "replace x by (x+4) to find f(x).
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = (x+4)^2-2(x+4) = x^2+8x+16-2x-8 = x^2+6x+8
