On a distant planet, ralph ran into a creature with multiple arms and multiple legs. each arm has 6 fingers and each leg has 9 toes. on any one of these creatures, the total number of fingers and toes, d, can be described with the equation d = 6x + 9y. in this equation, what does the variable x represent? a. the number of arms the creature has. b. the number of legs the creature has. c. the number of fingers the creature has. d. the number of toes the creature has.

Suppose you want to transform the graph of the function y=tan(x+pi/4)-1 into the graph of the function y=-tan(x+pi/2)+1 which transformations should you perform. a) reflect the graph of the first function across the x-axis, translate it pi/4 units to the left, and translate it 2 units up. b) reflect the graph of the first function across the x-axis, translate it pi/4 units to the right, and translate it 2 units up. c) reflect the graph of the first function across the line y = -1, translate it pi/4 units to the left, and translate it 2 units up. d) reflect the graph of the first function across the line y = -1, translate it pi/4 units to the right, and translate it 2 units up.
