Answer:
(a)
or 
(b)
or
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- North Dakota
--- Cheyenne, Wyoming
Solving (a): Inequality to compare both temperatures
From the given temperatures, we can conclude that:
or 
Because
i.e. 1 is greater than -2
or
i.e. -2 is less than 1
Solving (b): Inequality to compare the absolute values of the temperatures
We have:


The absolute values are:




By comparison:
or 
Because
i.e. 2 is greater than 1
or
i.e. 1 is less than 2
To find the slope, use the equation
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Since we have 2 coordinates, we can use the formula.
m = (-4-5)/(-2-10) = (-9)/(-12) = 3/4. The slope is 3/4. Hope this helps.
Answer:
840 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
If the base is square and the side length is 10 inches, the areas of the base and of the top combined is 2(100 in^2).
The height of the prism comes from dividing the volume, 1600 in^3, by the area of the base, 100 in^2: It is 16 in. Then the combined areas of the four sides of the prism is 4(160 in^2).
The total surface area of the prsim is then 640 in^2 + 200 in^2, or 840 in^2.
A relation is any set of ordered pairs, which can be thought of as (input, output).
A function is a relation in which NO two ordered pairs have the same first component and different second components.
The set of first components (x-coordinates) in the ordered pairs is the DOMAIN of the relation.
The set of second components (y-coordinates) is the RANGE of the relation.
Part 1:
Domain: {-1, 1, 3, 6}
Range: {2, 2, 2, 2}
Part 2:
To determine whether the given relation represents a function, look at the given relation and ask yourself, “Does every first element (or input) correspond with EXACTLY ONE second element (or output)?”
Remember that a function can only take on 1 output for each input.
It helps to plot the points on the graph and perform the Vertical Line Test (VLT):
The Vertical Line Test allows us to know whether or not a graph is actually a function. If a vertical line intersects the graph in all places at exactly one point, then the relation is a function.
As you can see in the attached screenshot, every vertical line drawn only has 1 point in it. This means that each x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value. The given relation passed the VLT. Therefore, the relation is a function.
