Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=(x^2+6x+8)(x^2+6x+13)\\\\f(x)=0\iff(x^2+6x+8)(x^2+6x+13)=0\iff\\x^2+6x+8=0\vee x^2+6x+13=0\\\\x^2+6x+8=0\\x^2+4x+2x+8=0\\x(x+4)+2(x+4)=0\\(x+4)(x+2)=0\iff x+4=0\ \vee\ x+2=0\\x+4=0\qquad\text{subtract 4 from both sides}\\\boxed{x=-4}\\x+2=0\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\boxed{x=-2}\\\\x^2+6x+13=0\qquad\text{subtract 13 from both sides}\\x^2+6x=-13\\x^2+2(x)(3)=-13\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2=9\ \text{to both sides}\\x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2=-13+9\qquad\text{use}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\(x+3)^2=-4$

Carl is wondering if the train he is riding home from school will leave early, on time, or late. The probabilities are as follow

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Probability of each situation is 1/3 .

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 possibilities

1- Train will arrive early

2- Train will arrive on time

3- Train will arrive late

Formula for Probability of event a is = n(a)/Sum of events

In this case sum of events = 3

Probability of early arrival = 1/3

Probability of on time arrival = 1/3

Probability of late arrival = 1/3

Eddie Hibbs earns a gross income of $42,300 a

Maslowich

Using proportions, it is found that his tax rate is of 28.84%.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

His tax rate is the proportion that the <u>deductions are of the total salary</u>, hence:

12,200/42,300 = 0.2884 = 28.84%.

Hence his tax rate is of 28.84%.

Find the mean of the number set.<br>93, 81, 94, 78, 89, 92, 94, 99<br>Your answer divided by 7

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

mean= 90

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the terms added together, then divided by the number of terms (in this case, 8):

$93+81+94+78+89+92+94+99=720\\\\\frac{720}{8} =90$

Done.

Calculus piecewise function.

Kipish [7]

Part A

The notation $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x)$ means that we're approaching x = 2 from the right hand side (aka positive side). This is known as a right hand limit.

So we could start at say x = 2.5 and get closer to 2 by getting to x = 2.4 then to x = 2.3 then 2.2, 2.1, 2.01, 2.001, etc

We don't actually arrive at x = 2 itself. We simply move closer and closer.

Since we're on the positive or right hand side of 2, this means we go with the rule involving x > 2

Therefore f(x) = (x/2) + 1

Plug in x = 2 to find that...

f(x) = (x/2) + 1

f(2) = (2/2) + 1

f(2) = 2

This shows $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) = 2$

Then for the left hand limit $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ , we'll involve x < 2 and we go for the first piece. So,

f(x) = 3-x

f(2) = 3-2

f(2) = 1

Therefore, $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x) = 1$

===============================================================

Part B

Because $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) \ne \lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ this means that the limit $\lim_{x \to 2}f(x)$ does not exist.

If you are a visual learner, check out the graph below of the piecewise function. Notice the gap or disconnect at x = 2. This can be thought of as two roads that are disconnected. There's no way for a car to go from one road to the other. Because of this disconnect, the limit doesn't exist at x = 2.

===============================================================

Part C

You'll follow the same type of steps shown in part A.

However, keep in mind that x = 4 is above x = 2, so we'll deal with x > 2 only.

So you'd only involve the second piece f(x) = (x/2) + 1

You should find that f(4) = 3, and that both left and right hand limits equal this value. The left and right hand limits approach the same y value. The limit does exist here. There are no gaps to worry about when x = 4.

===============================================================

Part D

As mentioned earlier, since $\lim_{x \to 4^{+}}f(x) = \lim_{x \to 4^{-}}f(x) = 3$ , this means the limit $\lim_{x \to 4}f(x)$ does exist and it's equal to 3.

As x gets closer and closer to 4, the y values are approaching 3. This applies to both directions.
