Describe the graph of the basic rational function, f(x)=1/x. Talk about its domain and range and compare the function to other o

nes, i.e. linear or quadratic or exponential.

F(x) = 1/x is a special function. is called the multiplicative inverse or the reciprocal function. the specific shape of the graph is called a rectangular hyperbola.

negative values of x with produce negative values of f(x) and positive values will produce positive function values. so this hyperbola is symmetric with respect to the origin and all negative values are in Q3 and all positive values are in Q1.

as x gets farther and farther from 0 in either direction, you can see that 1/x will be an ever-increasingly smaller distance from the x-axis. indeed, the limit of this function is zero as x approaches either positive or negative infinity.

if x is between -1 and 1, then the value of f(x) increases until x = 0, the limit of the function as x approaches 0 being positive and negative infinity depending on which direction you are coming from.

the domain is all real numbers with the exception of 0

the range also happens to be all real numbers with the exception of zero. all that really means is that zero has no multiplicative inverse.

strictly speaking, this is an exponential function, as the function is f(x) = x^(-1).

Can someone help to find the missing angle measurements
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Angle 1 = 75°

Angle 2 = 55°

Angle 3 = 55°

Angle 4 = 40°

Angle 5 = 140°

Angle 6 = 40°

Angle 7 = 75°

Angle 8 = 65°

Angle 9 = 115°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We start with angle 2

Angle 2

Angles on a straight line = 180°

Hence,

b + 125° = 180°

b = 180° - 125°

b = 55°

Angle 2 = 55°

2)Angle 1

The sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

Hence

Let Angle 1 = a

50° + 55° + a = 180°

a = 180° - (50° + 55°)

a = 180° - 105°

a = 75°

3)Angle 3

Angle 2 and Angle 3 are vertical angles

So we use the Vertical angle theorem

This means

Angle 2 = Angle 3

Angle 2 = 55°

Hence, Angle 3 = 55°

4) Angle 4

Sum of Angles in a triangle = 180°

Let Angle 4 = d

Hence:

85° + Angle 3 + d = 180°

85° + 55° + d = 180°

d= 180° - (85° + 55°)

d = 180°- 140°

d = 40°

5)Angle 5

Angle 4 and Angle 5 are angles on a straight line

Sum of angles on a straight line = 180°

Angle 4 = 40°

Let Angle 5 = e

Hence:

40° + e = 180°

Collect like terms

e = 180° - 40°

e = 140°

6) Angle 6

Angle 4 and Angle 6 are vertical angles

Using Vertical angle theorem,

Angle 4 = Angle 6

Angle 4 = 40°

Hence, Angle 6 = 40°

7)Angle 9

Solving for Angle 9,

Sum of angles on a straight line = 180°

Angle 9 = i

i + 65° = 180°

i = 180° - 65°

i = 115°

8) Angle 8

= Angle 9 and Angle 8 are angles in a straight line

= Angle 8 = h

h + 115° = 180°

h = 180° - 115°

h = 65°

9)Angle 7

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

Angle 7 = g

g = 180° - (65° + Angle 6)

= 180° - (65 + 40

= 180° - 105°

= 75°

How many math books and English books did Nicole purchase?
Ksju [112]
Create a system if equations to solve this.

First equation:
25m + 24e = 220

Second equation:
m + e = 9

Then you must solve the second equation for a variable.

Change m + e = 9 to e = 9 - m.

Then substitute (9 - m) for e in the first equation.

So 25m +24e = 220 becomes 25m + 24(9 - m) = 220.

Now you can solve the first equation because the only variable in it is m.

25m + 24(9 - m) = 220 (Original equation)
25m + 216 - 24m = 220 (Distribute)
m + 216 = 220 (Combine like terms)
m = 4 (Simplify)

Now plug in 4 for m in the second equation.

m + e = 9 (Original equation)
(4) + e = 9 (Substitute)
e = 5 (Simplify)

m represents Math Books and e represents English Books, so Nicole purchased 4 Math Books and 5 English Books.

Which term describes the set of all possible output values for a function?
Firdavs [7]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

C. Range

Explanation:

The definition of domain is the set of all possible input values, or x-values, of a function.

The definition of range is the set of all possible output values, or y-values, of a function.
