Consider linear functions \(f(x) = ax - 2\)
and \(g\colon y = -4x + 3\). Find the value of
the real parameter \(a\) which
ensure that the graphs of \(f\)
and \(g\)
are two parallel lines.
Three of the points \(A = [2;-4]\),
\(B = [0;-3]\),
\(C = [-2;-1]\),
\(D = [-4;1]\) lie on
the graph of the same linear function. Identify these points. (Colinear points.)
Given a function \(f(x) = \frac{x}
{3} + 1\), find
the function \(g\) such that
the graph of \(g\) is symmetric
with the graph of \(f\)
about the \(y\)-axis.
The price of a goods in a shop is \(\$15\)
per item. The Internet price in an e-shop is cheaper by
\(\$2\) per item. The shipping
cost of the e-shop is \(\$125\).
What is the minimal number of items, which makes the total cost for a transaction
smaller in the e-shop?
A fuel tank in a car has the capacity \(40\)
litres. The current volume of the fuel in the fuel tank is
\(6\) litres. The speed
of fuelling is \(1\) litre
of gasoline each \(3\)
seconds. Find the function which describes the volume of the gasoline in the fuel tank (in litres)
as a function of time (in seconds).
An automatic machine produces \(12\)
components per minute and stores them in a box with capacity
\(1\: 500\)
components. The machine starts with an initial amount of
\(240\)
components in the box. In what time will be the box full?
Consider the linear function \(f(x) = x\).
Identify a linear function \(g\)
such that the graphs of \(f\)
and \(g\) are symmetric
about the \(x\)-axis.
