1. Name two possible solutions to the equation W = 250 + 132.5T. What do the solutions mean in this situation?

As you can see the weight of the box is given by:

W = 250 + 132.5T

So using this equation we can find the total weight given x number of t-shirts, for example: Suppose we want to know the total weight if the number of t-shirts is 50:

T= 50:

W = 250 + 132.5(50) = 250 + 6625 = 6875g

In the same way if we know the weight, we can determine the total number of t-shirts, for example, suppose the total weight is 5000g:

5000 = 250 + 132.5T

Let's solve for T:

Subtract 250 from both sides:

5000-250 = 132.5T

4750 = 132.5T

Divide both sides by 132.5:

4750/132.5 = T

38.849 = T

so we can conclude that there were approximately 39 t-shirts

6. Consider the equation 2,900 = 250 + 132.50T. In this situation, what is the solution to the equation and what does the solution tell us?

Basically they are telling us that the weight of the box in this case is 2900:

W = 2900

2900 = 250 + 132.5T

So, we can find the total number of t-shirts in the box solving the equation for T:

Subtract 250 from both sides:

2900 - 250 = 132.5T

2650 = 132.5T

Divide both sides by 132.5:

2650/132.5 = T

20 = T

T = 20

This solution tell us that there were 20 t-shirts in the box

Determine whether each of these functions from Z to Z is one-to-one. a) f(n) = n - 1 b) f(n) = n2 + 1 c) f(n) = nº d) f(n) = [n/
sesenic [268]

Answer:  The correct option is

(a) f(n) = n - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to determine whether the given functions are one-to-one or not.

We know that a function y = f(x) is one-to-one if and only if

f(x) = f(y)  ⇔  x = y.

That is, any two distinct elements cannot have the same image.

(a) The given function is

f(n)=n-1.

Let us consider that

f(n_1)=f(n_2)\\\\\Rightarrow n_1-1=n_2-1\\\\\Rightarrow n_1=n_2.

Similarly,

n_1=n_2\\\\\Rightarrow n_1-1=n_2-1\\\\\Rightarrow f(n_1)=f(n_2).

So, this function is one-to-one.

(b) The given function is

f(n)=n^2+1.

Let us consider that

f(n_1)=f(n_2)\\\\\Rightarrow n_1^2+1=n_2^2+1\\\\\Rightarrow n_1^2=n_2^2\\\\\Rightarrow n_1=\pm n_2.

That is, there may be two unequal elements having same image.

For example, f(-1)=(-1)²+1=1+1=2,  f(1)=(1)²+1=1+1=2.

It implies that f(-1)=f(1) but 1 ≠ -1.

So, the given function is not one-to-one.

(c) The given function is

f(n)=n^0.

Here, the image of all the elements is 1.

For example, f(2)=2^0=1,~~f(3)=3^0=1.

f(2)=f(3)  but  2≠3.

So, more than one element is having the same image and so the function cannot be one-to-one.

(d) The given function is

f(n)=\left[\dfrac{n}{2}\right].

Here, we see that

f(2)=\left[\dfrac{2}{2}\right]=[1]=1,\\\\\\f(3)=\left[\dfrac{3}{2}\right]=[1.5]=1.

So, f(2)=f(3) but 2≠3.

So, the given function is not one-to-one.

Thus, the correct option is (a).
