The graph represents the piecewise function

Mathematics
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]1 year ago
6 0

The piece-wise function is defined as follows:

  • f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3.
  • f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6.
  • f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10.

<h3>What is a piece-wise function?</h3>

A piece-wise function is a function that has multiple definitions, depending on the input.

In this graph, for x at least 0 and less than 3, the parabolic curve passes through (0,0), (1,1), (2,4) and has an open interval at (3,9), hence the definition is:

f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3

For x greater than 3 and at most 6, it is a line going through (3,9) and (6,4), hence:

m = \frac{9 - 4}{3 - 6} = -\frac{5}{3}

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + b

Goes through (3,9), hence:

9 = -\frac{5}{3}(3) + b

b = 14.

So

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6

For x between 6 and 10, it is a line going through (6,4) and (10,10), hence:

m = \frac{10 - 4}{10 - 6} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Then:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x + b

When x = 10, f(x) = 10, hence:

10 = \frac{3}{2}(10) + b

10 = 15 + b

b = -5.

Hence:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10

Consider the 20 points of a 4×5 grid. You randomly choose two points from the 20 points. What is the probability that the two po
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to solve this is to think of it rephrased as "what is the probability that your second point will be in the same row or column as your first point".  With that frame of reference, you can simply consider how many other points are left that do or do not fall in line with the selected one.

After selecting one, there are 19 points left.

The row that the first one falls in will have 3 remaining empty points.

The column will have 4 remaining empty points.

Add those up and you have 7 possible points that meet the conditions being checked.

So the probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%
