Draw the shape that a mowing machine would make given these instructions. go to (–7, 7). lower blade. cut to (–7, 1). raise blade. go to (–4, 7). lower blade. cut to (–4, 1). raise blade. go to (–7, 4). lower blade. cut to (–4, 4). raise blade. what is the shape?
a. i
b. h
c. t
d. x

The correct option is B. The shape of mowing machine is H.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the

1. Go to (–7, 7). Lower blade. Cut to (–7, 1). Raise blade.

2. Go to (–4, 7). Lower blade. Cut to (–4, 1). Raise blade.

3. Go to (–7, 4). Lower blade. Cut to (–4, 4). Raise blade.

Plot the points (–7, 7) and (–7, 1) on a coordinate plane and joint them. Similarly make the line segment (–4, 7) to (–4, 1) and (–7, 4) to (–4, 4).

From the below figure it is clear that the shape of mowing machine is H.

Therefore the correct option is B.

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2 -1 

translation is a function transformation that transform the function in a way of translating. by translating the function its graph is moved  up an down. moving the function f(x) 2 units to the left will be the new function g(x) with the equation: g(x)=f(x+2)=2(x+2)^2 -1
