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.

Cheryl plans to bake cookies tomorrow and needs to purchase chocolate chips and pecans for no more than $25 total. Chocolate chi
boyakko [2]

The inequality that correctly represents this scenario is given as follows:

2x + 5y \leq 25

The graph is given at the end of the question.

<h3>What is a system of inequalities?</h3>

A system of inequalities is when two or more variables are related, and inequalities are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: number of chocolate chips purchased.
  • Variable y: number of pecans sold.

Chocolate chips are $2 per pound and pecans are $5 per pound. She wants to spend at most $25, hence:

2x + 5y \leq 25

3 over eight people ride the bus in Mrs. Mulls class. If she has 24 students how many students ride the bus?
qaws [65]
I think you divide 24 by 8 which = 3 and then times 3•3 which equals 9 so I think that 9 students out of 24 ride the bus
