Answer:

A. $h(x)=4(x-5)^2-18$

Detailed explanation:

Given the function $g(x)=4x^2-16$ , we need to determine the formula when g(x) moves 5 units to the right and 2 units downward.

Recall the rules for transformations.

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x-a)=\text{Graph shifted to the right by 'a' units}$

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x+a)=\text{Graph shifted to the left by 'a' units}$

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-a=\text{Graph shifted downwards by 'a' units}$

$f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+a=\text{Graph shifted upwards by 'a' units}$

Shifting the function right by 5 units changes it to:

$g(x)=4(x-5)^2-16$

Next, shifting it down by 2 units gives:

$g(x)=4(x-5)^2-16-2$

$g(x)=4(x-5)^2-18$

Thus, option A is the correct answer.

Try this method:
When a graph shifts right, replace 'x' with 'x' minus the number.
When it shifts down, subtract the number from 'y'.
So the final equation becomes: y = 4(x - 5)² - 18.
The answer is A.

The current global human population is about 6.1 billion and is growing at an annual rate of 1.35 percent. If world population w

tester [12383]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The world population currently is rising at a yearly rate of 1.35 percent. The nature of the growth is exponential. We will use the exponential growth formula, expressed as

A = P(1 + r)^t

Where:

A indicates the population after t years.

t symbolizes the number of years.

P is the initial population count.

r signifies the growth rate.

<pFrom the given data,

P = 6.1 × 10^9

r = 1.35% = 1.35/100 = 0.0135

t = 1

Hence,

A = 6.1 × 10^9(1 + 0.0135)^1

A = 6.1 × 10^9(1.0135)^1

A = 6182350000

The total number of people added would be

6182350000 - 6100000000

= 82350000
