Just #35 please piecewise functions

Mathematics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]1 year ago

Answer: No, the friend is correct. In any function, each input value can only lead to one output value. When you input 3 for the x-values, you would get two output values because 3 is included in both equations. To fix this, you need to have the 3 not included in one of the equations.

For example, you could say y=\left \{ {{2x-2, x\leq 3} \atop {-3, x > 3}} \right. or y=\left \{ {{2x-2, x < 3} \atop {-3, x\geq 3}} \right. because the input value of 3 would not be included twice.

If you look at the attached screenshot, you will see that if you keep your friend's function, inputting 3 will result in two outputs of 4 and -3, so therefore, y=\left \{ {{2x-2,x\leq 3} \atop {-3,x\geq 3}} \right. cannot represent a piecewise function.

An automobile manufacturer sold 30,000 new cars, one to each of 30,000 customers, in a certain year. The manufacturer was intere

A) In order to create a sampling plan, you need to follow the following 5 steps:
    1) Define the sample population: who are the customers you want to contact?
       The costumers who bought a new car on a certain year.
    2) Define the size of population: how many customers are you going to contact?
       Of the 30000 customers who bought a car, you want to contact 1000 customers.
    3) Define the contact options: how are you going to contact the customers?
       You have a list of names and addresses, therefore you can send a questionnaire via mail.
    4) Form a sampling frame: what is the time or contact frame to get in touch with your customers? 
       You will send the questionnaires and you will wait two months for the answer.
    5) Define the analysis method: is yours a qualitative or quantitative research?
     In your case, you want a quantitative research and therefore a probabilistic sampling.

B) The 32.5% probability refers to customers having issues with the power doors locks among the costumers who had problems, it does not consider the customers who did not have any problem or those who had problems after the first 5000 miles.

C) In order to find the probability of a power door lock problem if there have been problems within the first 5000 miles, we need to consider the whole sample:
P = 13 / 1000
   = 0.013

Therefore, 
N = <span>0.013 </span>× 30000
   = 390

Hence, the number of new cars sold that experienced a problem with the power door locks within the first 5000 miles will be 390.
