The <em>piecewise defined</em> function is formed by the following three functions: y = 40, for 0 ≤ x < 15, y = 0.0425 · x² - 3.8 · x + 87.438, for 15 ≤ x < 65 and y = 0.4 · x - 6, for x ≥ 65.

<h3>What is the piecewise defined function behind the graph?</h3>

In this problem we have a <em>piecewise defined</em> function formed by three functions: (i) <em>Linear</em> equation, (ii) <em>Quadratic</em> equation, (iii) <em>Linear</em> equation. The <em>first</em> function is y = 40, for 0 ≤ x < 15.

The <em>second</em> function can be found based on the knowledge of three points:

y = a · x² + b · x + c

(x₁, y₁) = (15, 40)

40 = 225 · a + 15 · b + c

(x₂, y₂) = (45, 2.5)

2.5 = 2025 · a + 45 · b + c

(x₃, y₃) = (65, 20)

20 = 4225 · a + 65 · b + c

And the <em>quadratic</em> equation is y = 0.0425 · x² - 3.8 · x + 87.438, for 15 ≤ x < 65.

And the <em>latter linear</em> equation is:

y = m · x + b

m = (30 - 20)/(90 - 65)

m = 0.4

And the x-intercept is:

b = y - m · x

b = 20 - 0.4 · 65

b = - 6

The <em>linear</em> equation is y = 0.4 · x - 6, for x ≥ 65.

The <em>piecewise defined</em> function is formed by the following three functions: y = 40, for 0 ≤ x < 15, y = 0.0425 · x² - 3.8 · x + 87.438, for 15 ≤ x < 65 and y = 0.4 · x - 6, for x ≥ 65.

Alona [7]
Probably y = 8x. 56 = 8(7), so that works. Without more data, I couldn't say if it could be something else, so that's what I go with.

Michaela spent 5/6 of an hour reading on each of 3 days this week. She spent 3/4 of an hour on each of 2 days this week doing sc
Kay [80]
5/6 of an hour is 50 min. So 50 times 3 equals 150 min for reading. 3/4 of an hour is 45 min. 45 times 2 equals 90 min for science. And 1/2 of an hour is 30 min. So 30 times 4 equals 120 mins for math. Add 150,90, and 120 min all together and you get 360 mins total. Divide 360 by 60, and you get 6 hours total that Michaela spent on reading, math, and science. Not 2 1/2.

Can someone help me with this ASAP please 50 points!!!
ella [17]

Answer:

a = 17 sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 45 = 17/a

Multiply each side by a

a sin 45 = 17

Divide each side by sin 45

a = 17 / sin 45

a = 17 / ( 1 / sqrt(2))

a = 17 sqrt(2)
