The graph of f(x) is a line with an x-intercept of (3,0) and a y-intercept of (0, -6). The graph of g(x) is a parabola with a vertex at (2, 1) and y-intercept of (0, -3).

What is the effect on the graph of the parent function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced with 3f(x)? a) shifts the line 3 units up b) shifts the line 3 units down c) increases the slope of the line by a factor of 3 d) decreases the slope of the line by a factor of 3

Gabriel determined that his total cost would be represented by 2.5x + 2y – 2. his sister states that the expression should be x + x + 0.5x + y + y – 2. who is correct? explain.

Given the system of equations presented here: 2x + 4y = 14 4x + y = 20 which of the following actions creates an equivalent system such that, when combined with the other equation, one of the variables is eliminated? multiply the second equation by â’4 to get â’16x â’ 4y = â’80 multiply the second equation by â’1 to get â’4x â’ y = â’20 multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 8y = 28 multiply the first equation by â’1 to get â’2x â’ 4y = â’14
