Question

f(x) =2x +1
The function f is defined by the equation above. Which of the following is the graph of y = - f(x)in the xy-plane?

The correct answer is:


    Solution:-The correct option is C.
    • We are given f(x) =2x +1                 --------(1)
    • And we have to find the graph of y = −f(x)   
    • From equation (1)  we have to find the graph of the equation y = −(2x + 1), or y = −2x − 1.
    • This should be the graph of a decreasing exponential function because as the value of x will increase value of y will decrease.
    •  The y-intercept of the graph can be found by substituting the value x = 0 into the equation, as follows: y = −20 − 1 = −1 − 1 = −2.
    Therefore, the graph should pass through the point (0, −2).
    Option C is the only function that passes through this point.
    • Choices A and B are incorrect because the graphed functions are increasing instead of decreasing.
    • Choice D is incorrect because the function passes through the point (0, −1) instead of (0, −2).
    Therefore the correct answer is Option C

    2000 minus 61 k equals 48
    In 1962, the population of a bird species was 2,000. The population k years after 1962 were 48, and k satisfies the equation above. Which of the following is the best interpretation of the number 61 in this
    context?

    Note:
    This question could also be solved by eliminating the options. Option A is wrong as the population k years after 1962 is 48, not 61. Option B is wrong because we find the value of k to be 32. Option C is wrong because the difference between the population in 1962 and the population years after 1962 is given by 2000-48=1952.

    8 x minus 2 x left parenthesis c plus 1 right parenthesis equals x
    In the equation above, c is a constant. If the equation has infinitely many solutions, what is the value of c ?

    Note:
    As the equation 8 x minus 2 x left parenthesis c plus 1 right parenthesis equals x  is true for all values of x, we could have put x equal to any other number instead of 1, and we would get the same result. If we put x=1 in the first step as well, we would get the same value for x
