Answer:

(-\frac{1}{2} )^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us apply the following law of exponents to simplify all the options.

a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^{m}}


For the first option, we have

-2^{-3}=\frac{1}{-2^3} =-\frac{1}{2\times 2\times 2\times 2} =-\frac{1}{8}


For the second expression, we have,


(-\frac{1}{2})^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-\frac{1}{2})^3}


=\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2}\times -\frac{1}{2} \times -\frac{1}{2} }


=\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{8} }


=-1\times \frac{8}{1}=-8


For the third expression, we have,


(\frac{1}{2})^{-3}=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{2})^3}


=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} }


=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{8} }


=1\times \frac{8}{1}=8


For the last option, we have

2^{-3}=\frac{1}{2^3} =\frac{1}{2\times 2\times 2\times 2} =\frac{1}{8}


Hence the correct answer is B.

In 1500 people of 200 lb each, the total weight would be 300000 lb.
Set up a proportion: 200lb/3.2*10^-5 = 300,000lb/x
(3.2*10^-5*300,000)/200 = x

For each of the following functions, determine if they are injective. Also determine if theyare surjective. Also determine if th
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Check below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Definition for intervals

(a,b)=\left \{ x\in\Re : a

2. Functions

1) \Re \rightarrow \Re \\ f(x)=x

Let's perform graph tests.

That's an one to one, injective function. Look how any horizontal line touches that only once. Also, It's a surjective and a bijective one.

2)\Re\geq0\rightarrow\Re , f(x)=x+1\\

Injective, surjective and bijective.

Injective: a horizontal line crosses the graph in one point.

3)f:\Re\geq 0\rightarrow\Re, f(x) = cos(x)

The cosine function is not injective, bijective nor surjective.

4)f:\Re\rightarrow\Re \:f(x)=ex

Since e, is euler number it's a constant. It's also injective, surjective and bijective.

5)  Quite unclear format

6) \:f:\Re\rightarrow(0,\infty), f(x) =ex

Despite the Restriction for the CoDomain, the function remains injective, surjective and therefore bijective.

7) f:\Re\geq 0 \rightarrow  \Re\geq0, f(x) =x^{4}

Not injective nor surjective therefore not bijective too.

8).f:\{-1,2,-3\}}\rightarrow \{1,4,9\}, f(x) =x^{2}

f(-1)=1, f(2)=4, f(-3)=9

Injective (one to one), Surjective,  and Bijective.

10) f:\Re\geq 0\rightarrow [-1,1], f(x)= cos(x)\\-1=cos(x) \therefore x=\pi,3\pi,5\pi,etc.

Surjective.

11.f:R\geq 0[-1,1], f(x) = 0\\

Surjective

12.f: US Citizens→Z, f(x) = the SSN of x.

General function

13.f: US Zip Codes→US States, f(x) = The state that x belongs to.

Surjective
