Eli, Freda and Geoff were given £800 to share in the ratio of their ages.

Initially, we will calculate the total of their ages by adding the ages of Eli, Freda, and Geoff:
9+13+18=40
The total age of Eli, Freda, and Geoff amounts to 40, thus the denominator for each ratio is 40.

Subsequently, we will apply the ratio of each individual's age to the combined age multiplied by £800:
For Eli: \frac{9}{40} *800=180
For Freda: \frac{13}{40} *800=260
For Geoff: \frac{18}{40} *800=360
<span>
In conclusion, Eli will receive £180, Freda will receive £260, and Geoff will receive £360.</span>

Consider the equation log(3x - 1) = log28. Explain why 3x - 1 is not equal to 8. Describe the steps you would take to solve the
Zina [12379]
This is due to the distinct properties of logarithms in comparison to algebra. The expression log(3x - 1) is interpreted as log 3x divided by log 1. If we proceed with rearranging and solving for x, we arrive at: log(3x - 1) = log28, log 3x/log 1 = log 28, resulting in log 3x being equal to log 28 multiplied by log 1 which equals 0. Thus, 3x = 10⁰ = 1, leading to 3x = 1 and x = 1/3. Therefore, it follows that 3x - 1 equals 3(1/3) - 1 = 0.

The graph of f(x) = x2 is translated to form g(x) = (x – 5)2 + 1. On a coordinate plane, a parabola, labeled f of x, opens up. I
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

The correct option is:

On the coordinate plane, there is a parabola that opens upwards, passing through the points (2, 10), having its vertex at (5, 1), and intersecting (8, 10).

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, we must understand the translation rules

1) {f(x) + a} signifies f(x) moved up by (a) units

2) {f(x) – a} means f(x) moved down by (a) units

3) {f(x + a)} represents f(x) moved left by (a) units.

4) {f(x – a)} indicates f(x) moved right by (a) units.

Given information:

f(x) = x²

g(x) = (x-5)² + 1

By comparing the transformation from f(x) to g(x) with the translation rules

It can be concluded that g(x) represents f(x) through a translation of 5 units to the right and 1 unit upwards (rules 1 and 4)

Refer to the attached image, which illustrates the graphs of both f(x) and g(x)

As depicted, g(x) intersects (2, 10), has a vertex at (5, 1), and crosses through (8, 10)
