write a piecewise function defined by three equations that has a domain of all real numbers and a range of "-3

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]2 years ago

A piece-wise function that has domain of all real numbers and range of [-3, \infty) is f(x) = |x| - 3, as:

|x| - 3 = x - 3, x \geq 0

|x| - 3 = -x - 3, x < 0

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

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

One example is the absolute value function, defined as follows:

|x| = x, x \geq 0

|x| = -x, x < 0

The function is defined for all real values, with a range of [0, \infty). Shifting it down 3 units, it will have the desired range, as follows:

|x| - 3 = x - 3, x \geq 0

|x| - 3 = -x - 3, x < 0

Marla bought 12 books at a garage sale. Some of them were hardback and the rest were paperback. She paid $0.50 for each paperbac
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: The number of books bought were 9 paperbacks and 3 hardbacks

Step-by-step explanation: We shall start by assigning letters to the unknown variables, hence let the hardback be called h, while the paperback shall be called p.

If Marla bought 12 books at the garage sale, that means she bought

h + p  = 12 ------(1)

Then she paid 0.5 dollars for paperback and 0.75 dollars for hardback and the total spent was 6.75 dollars for all of them, then we can express these as follows;

0.5p + 0.75h = 6.75 ------(2)

We now have a pair of simultaneous equations which are

h + p = 12 ------(1)

0.5p + 0.75h = 6.75 ------(2)

From equation (1), make h the subject of the equation,

h = 12- p

Substitute for h into equation (2)

0.5p + 0.75(12 - p) = 6.75

0.5p + 9 - 0.75p = 6.75

0.5p - 0.75p = 6.75 - 9

-0.25p = -2.25

Divide both sides of the equation by -0.25

p = 9

Now, substitute for p into equation (1)

h + p = 12

h + 9 = 12

Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

h = 3

Therefore Marla bought 9 paperbacks and 3 hardbacks

Carlos can print a document on an Apricot printer in 4.5 minutes. How long would it take him to print the same document on a sur
yawa3891 [41]

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Step 1

<u>Find the number of pages printed  on an Apricot printer </u>

we know that

The speed of an Apricot printer is 8ppm

so

in 4.5 min

Carlos print

4.5*8=36 pages

step 2

<u>Find the time it takes Carlos to print the same amount of documents on a sure fire printer printer</u>

we know that

The speed on a sure fire printer is 12ppm

so

Divide the total of pages by the speed of the printer

36/12=3 minutes

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

3 minutes
