We have to graph this piecewise function.
It will be two horizontal lines that change when x = -1: to the left it will be y = 5, as x ≤ 1, and to the right, it will be y = -3.
We can see it graphed as:
b) The range is the set of values that f(x) takes for the domain for which it is defined.
We can see that f(x) only takes two values: y = -3 and y = 5, so the set {-3,5} is the range of f(x).
Answer:
a) Graph
b) Range = {-3, 5}
What is the unknown angle b?
Answer:
48°
Explanation:
A line always equals 180°. The angle on the right is a 90° angle (we know this because or the little red box shown) and the angle in the middle is 42°. We would add 42° and 90° to get the combination of both which is 132°
42+90=132
Then subtract 132° from 180° to find unknown angle b.
180-132=48
Unknown angle b= 48°

heyy could you help me out with this problem I'm stuck
Since congruent angles are equal
Therefore the two figures are similar
we have
9 / 9 = 2x / x + 4
introduce cross multiplication
9 (2x) = 9(x + 4)
18x = 9*x + 9*4
18x = 9x + 36
collect the like terms
18x - 9x = 36
9x = 36
divide boths sides by 9
9x / 9 = 36/9
x = 4
The first missing variable is 2x

TRIGONOMETRY Find the length of the longer diagonal of this parallelogram round to the nearest tenth
Given the parallelogram ABCD
As shown: AB = 4 ft
m∠BAC = 30
m∠BDC = 104
We will find the length of the longer diagonal which will be AC
See the following figure:
The point of intersection of the diagonals = O
The opposite sides are parallel
AB || CD
m∠ABD = m∠BDC because the alternate angles are congruent
So, in the triangle AOB, the sum of the angles = 180
m∠AOB = 180 - (30+104) = 46
We will find the length of OA using the sine rule as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{OA}{\sin104}=\frac{AB}{\sin 46} \\ \\ OA=AB\cdot\frac{\sin104}{\sin46}=4\cdot\frac{\sin104}{\sin46}\approx5.3955 \end{gathered}[/tex]The diagonals bisect each other
So,
[tex]AC=2\cdot OA=10.79[/tex]The longer diagonal is AC
Rounding to the nearest tenth
So, the answer will be AC = 10.8 ft

1)
The given polynomial is
[tex](m^2-n)(m^2+2n^2)[/tex]Multiply as follows:
[tex](m^2-n)(m^2+2n^2)=m^2(m^2+2n^2)-n(m^2+2n^2)[/tex][tex]=m^2\times m^2+m^2\times2n^2-n\times m^2-n\times2n^2[/tex][tex]=m^4+2m^2n^2-m^2n-2n^3[/tex]Hence the required expansion is
[tex](m^2-n)(m^2+2n^2)=m^4+2m^2n^2-m^2n-2n^3[/tex]2)
The given polynomial is
[tex](a-2)(4a^3-3a^2)[/tex]Multiply as follows:
[tex](a-2)(4a^3-3a^2)=a(4a^3-3a^2)-2(4a^3-3a^2)[/tex][tex]=a\times4a^3-a\times3a^2-2\times4a^3-(-2)\times3a^2[/tex][tex]=4a^4-3a^3-8a^3+6a^2[/tex][tex]=4a^4-11a^3+6a^2[/tex]Hence the required expansion is

10x − 10y = –1 ?
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.
Answer:
y = x + 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form: 10x − 10y = –1 ?
slope intercept form: y = mx + b so you are solving for y:
10x − 10y = –1
subtract 10x from both sides:
10x − 10y – 10x = –1 – 10x
-10y = –1 – 10x
divide all terms by -10:
-10y/(-10) = –1/(-10) – 10x/(-10)
y = 1/10 + x
rearrange for slope intercept form: y = mx + b
y = x + 1/10
Answer:
[tex]y=x+\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{6.3 cm}\underline{Slope-intercept form of a linear equation}\\\\$y=mx+b$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $m$ is the slope. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $b$ is the $y$-intercept.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]
Given equation:
[tex]10x-10y=-1[/tex]
To write the given equation in slope-intercept form, perform algebraic operations to isolate y.
Add 10y to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\implies 10x-10y+10y=10y-1[/tex]
[tex]\implies 10x=10y-1[/tex]
Add 1 to both sides of the equation:
[tex]\implies 10x+1=10y-1+1[/tex]
[tex]\implies 10x+1=10y[/tex]
[tex]\implies 10y=10x+1[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by 10:
[tex]\implies \dfrac{10y}{10}=\dfrac{10x+1}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\implies \dfrac{10y}{10}=\dfrac{10x}{10}+\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\implies y=x+\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]
Therefore, the given equation in slope-intercept form is:
[tex]\boxed{y=x+\dfrac{1}{10}}[/tex]
The world's largest swimming pool is the Orthalieb pool in Casablanca, Morocco the length is 30 m longer then 6 times the width. If the perimeter of the pool is 1110 Meters what are the dimensions of the pool?
The length of the rectangular pool is 30m longer than 6 times the width.
Let "x" represent the length of the width, then you can express the dimensions of the pool as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} w=x \\ l=6x+30 \end{gathered}[/tex]The perimeter of the pool is 1110m, this perimeter was obtained using the formula:
[tex]P=2w+2l[/tex]Replace the formula with the expressions determined for the width and length:
[tex]1110=2(x)+2(6x+30)[/tex]From this expression, you can determine the value of x:
-First, distribute the multiplications on the right side of the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1110=2x+2\cdot6x+2\cdot30 \\ 1110=2x+12x+60 \\ 1110=14x+60 \end{gathered}[/tex]-Second, pass 60 to the left side of the equal sign by applying the opposite operation to both sides of it:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1110-60=14x+60-60 \\ 1050=14x \end{gathered}[/tex]-Third, divide both sides of the equation by 14 to determine the value of x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1050}{14}=\frac{14x}{14} \\ 75=x \end{gathered}[/tex]The width of the pool is w= 75 meters
Now you can determine the length of the pool:
[tex]\begin{gathered} l=6x+30 \\ l=6\cdot75+30 \\ l=480 \end{gathered}[/tex]The length of the pool is l=480 meters
A right triangle is shown in the figure what is the value of x
So,
We could use the pythagorean theorem as follows:
[tex](3x)^2+x^2=(\sqrt[]{40})^2[/tex]And then solve for x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 10x^2=40 \\ x^2=\frac{40}{10} \\ x^2=4 \\ x=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, x=2.
Find a polynomial f(x) of degree 4 with real coefficients and the following zeros.3 (multiplicity 2) , -i
We are told that we want a polynomial f(x) with the given zeros.
Recall that if we know the zeros oa polynomial, we can write the polynomial by writing the factors (x - zero of the polynomial) and multiply them all together.
For example, if we want a polynomial of degree 2 with zeros at 2 and 3, then the polynomial would be
[tex](x\text{ -2)}\cdot(x\text{ -3)}[/tex]In this case, we have a polynomial f(x) of degree 4. So far, we know that 3 is a zero and that -i is a zero. So we write the following
[tex]f(x)=(x\text{ -a)}\cdot(x\text{ -b)}\cdot(x\text{ -c) }\cdot\text{ (x -d)}[/tex]where a,b,c and d are the zeros of f(x). We know that 3 is a zero and that -i is a zero. So we have
[tex]f(x)=(x\text{ -3)}\cdot(x\text{ -b)}\cdot(x\text{ -( -i)) }\cdot(x\text{ -d)}[/tex]So to fully describe f(x) we need to find the values of b and d. We are told that 3 is a zero of multiplicity 2. This means that the factor (x -3) appears two times in the factorization of f(x). So we can say that b=3. So we have
[tex]f(x)=(x\text{ -3)}\cdot(x\text{ -3) }\cdot(x\text{ +i ) }\cdot(x-d)=(x-3)^2\cdot(x\text{ +i)}\cdot(x\text{ -d)}[/tex]Now, we need to find the value of d. Note that we are told that -i is a zero of the function. -i is a complex number, so one important property of polynomials is that if a complex number a+bi is a zero of the polynomial, then the number a-bi (which is called the complex conjugate) is also a zero. Note that the complex conjugate of a complex number is calculated by leaving the real part intact and multiplying the imaginary part by -1.
In our case we have the complex number -i. So we can write -i= 0 - 1i . Then, its complex conjugate is i.
So, we have that d=i.
Then our polynomial would look like this
[tex]f(x)=(x-3)^2\cdot(x+i)\cdot(x\text{ -i)}[/tex]Note that
[tex](x+i)\cdot(x-i)=x^2\text{ -i}\cdot x\text{ + i}\cdot x+1=x^2+1[/tex]So our polynomial ends up being
[tex]f(x)=(x-3)^2\cdot(x^2+1)[/tex]I wonder what I’m doing wrong ?

let x the number of panels that Plant A produced
y the number of panels that Plant B produced
then, we have
x = 3y
0.02x + 0.05y = 990
and solve the system:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.02(3y)+0.05y=990 \\ 0.06y+0.05y=990 \\ 0.11y=990 \\ \frac{0.11y}{0.11}=\frac{990}{0.11} \\ y=9000 \end{gathered}[/tex]answer: plant b produced 9000 panels
Solving a Debra, Ravi, and Ahmad sent a total of 76 text messages during the weekend. Ahmad sent 2 times as many messages as Ravi. Debra sent 8 more messages than Ravi. How many messages did they each send?
Let the number of messages sent by Ravi be x.
Ahmad sent 2 times as many messages as Ravi. Therefore, Ahmad sent 2x messages.
Debra sent 8 more messages than Ravi. Therefore, Debra sent (x + 8) messages.
The sum of all the messages is 76:
[tex]x+2x+x+8=76[/tex]Solving for x, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x+8=76 \\ 4x=76-8 \\ 4x=68 \\ x=\frac{68}{4} \\ x=17 \end{gathered}[/tex]The number of messages Ahmad sent will be:
[tex]2(17)=34[/tex]The number of messages Debra sent will be:
[tex]17+8=25[/tex]ANSWER
[tex]\begin{gathered} Debra\to25\text{ }messages \\ Ravi\to17\text{ }messages \\ Ahmad\to34\text{ }messages \end{gathered}[/tex]An object was dropped off the top of a building. The function f(x) = -16x2 + 36represents the height of the object above the ground, in feet, X seconds after beingdropped. Find and interpret the given function values and determine an appropriatedomain for the function.
f(x) = -16x^2 + 36
Where:
f(x) = height of the object
x = seconds after being dropped.
f(-1) = -16 (-1)^2 + 36
f(-1) = -16 (1) + 36
f(-1) = 20
-1 seconds after the object was dropped, the object was 20 ft above the ground.
This interpretation does not make sense, because seconds can't be negative.
f(0.5) = -16 (0.5)^2 + 36
f(0.5) = -16 (0.25) +36
f(0.5) = -4 + 36
f(0.5) = 32
0.5 seconds after the object was dropped, the object was 32 ft above the ground.
This interpretation makes sense in the context of the problem.
f(2) = -16 (2)^2 + 36
f(2) = -16 (4) +36
f(2) = -64+36
f(2) = -28
2 seconds after the object was dropped, the object was -28 ft above the ground.
This interpretation does not make sense in the context of the problem, because the height can't be negative.
Based on the observation, the domain of the function is real numbers in a <- x <-b , possible values of x where f(x) is true.
before the object is released x=0
next, calculate x when f(x)=0 ( after the object hits the ground)
0= -16x^2+36
16x^2 = 36
x^2 = 36/16
x^2 = 2.25
x = √2.25
x = 1.5
0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5
