Which piecewise function is shown in the graph?

Mathematics
1 answer:
mash [69]1 year ago
3 0

Based on the characteristics of <em>linear</em> and <em>piecewise</em> functions, the <em>piecewise</em> function f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right. is shown in the graph attached herein. (Correct choice: A)

<h3>How to determine a piecewise function</h3>

In this question we have a graph formed by two different <em>linear</em> functions. <em>Linear</em> functions are polynomials with grade 1 and which are described by the following formula:

y = m · x + b     (1)

Where:

  • x - Independent variable.
  • y - Dependent variable.
  • m - Slope
  • b - Intercept

By direct observation and by applying (1) we have the following <em>piecewise</em> function:

f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right.

Based on the characteristics of <em>linear</em> and <em>piecewise</em> functions, the <em>piecewise</em> function f(x) = \left \{ {{-0.5\cdot x +1, \,x < 0} \atop {2\cdot x - 2, \,x \ge 0}} \right. is shown in the graph attached herein. (Correct choice: A)

There are 7 boxes stacked on the floor in the math department supply closet. Each box has a height of 10 inches or 8 inches. The
Orlov [11]

Answer:

5 of the 7 boxes are 8 inches in height

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

1 ft = 12 inches

So, 5 ft will measure 5 * 12 = 60 inches

So from what we have ,

We want to combine 8 and 10 inches to give 60 inches total

Let the number of 10 inches be x and the number of 8 inches be y

Mathematically;

x + y = 7 •••••(i)

10x + 8y = 60 ••••(ii)

From equation i, x = 7-y

Put this in equation ii

10(7-y) + 8y = 60

70-10y + 8y = 60

70-60 = 10y-8y

2y = 10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Please help :) If you know anything about combining equations can you help me :)
julsineya [31]

Answer:

-5x - 8y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we two equations, we are essentially just adding the left sides up and then the right sides up. Here, let's write these into one whole big equation:

(4x - 4y) + (-9x - 4y) = -2 + (-3)

Taking the parentheses out, we have:

4x - 4y - 9x - 4y = -2 - 3

Combine like terms:

4x - 9x - 4y - 4y = -5

-5x - 8y = -5

Hope this helps!
