Choose the correct transformation of the graph f(x) = |x + 8| - 3. the graph of f(x) = x| is shifted to the left 8 units, down 3 units. the graph of f(x) = x| is shifted to the right 8 units, down 3 units. the graph of f(x) = x| is shifted to the left 8 units, up 3 units. the graph of f(x) = x| is shifted to the right 8 units, up 3 units.

A. The graph of f(x) = |x| is shifted to the left 8 units, down 3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

The transformed function is .

Now, the parent function is .

So, we have,

When the parent function is shifted 8 units to the left, the function is .

This function when translated 3 units downwards gives .

Thus, we get,

So, option A is correct.

18.8 cubic inches.

step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cone = πr²h

r = 1.5 inches

h = 8 inches

pi = 3.14

volume of our cone = × 3.14 × 1.5² × 8 = 18.84 square inches

or equals to 18.8 square inches rounded up to nearest tenth.

answer:   b

step-by-step explanation:

x2 = 16

x can not be a negative number because 16 is positive

the only answer would be positive 8
