Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.

x= 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. y=11\4, 25\4, 39\4, 53\4, 67\4. what equation relates y to x in the values x and y?
larisa86 [58]
(1,11/4)(2,25/4)
slope = (25/4 - 11/4) / (2 - 1) = (14/4) / 1 = 14/4 = 7/2

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 7/2
(1,11/4)...x = 1 and y = 11/4
now we sub and find b, the y int
11/4 = 7/2(1) + b
11/4 = 7/2 + b
11/4 - 7/2 = b
11/4 - 14/4 = b
-3/4 = b

so ur equation is : y = 7/2x - 3/4

Could the inverse of a non-function be a function? Explain or give an example.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The inverse of a non-function mapping is not necessarily a function.

For example, the inverse of the non-function mapping \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\! is the same as itself (and thus isn't a function, either.)

Step-by-step explanation:

A mapping is a set of pairs of the form (a,\, b). The first entry of each pair is the value of the input. The second entry of the pair would be the value of the output.  

A mapping is a function if and only if for each possible input value x, at most one of the distinct pairs includes x\! as the value of first entry.

For example, the mapping \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (1,\, 0) \rbrace is a function. However, the mapping \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace isn't a function since more than one of the distinct pairs in this mapping include 1 as the value of the first entry.

The inverse of a mapping is obtained by interchanging the two entries of each of the pairs. For example, the inverse of the mapping \lbrace (a_{1},\, b_{1}),\, (a_{2},\, b_{2})\rbrace is the mapping \lbrace (b_{1},\, a_{1}),\, (b_{2},\, a_{2})\rbrace.

Consider mapping \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\!. This mapping isn't a function since the input value 0 is the first entry of more than one of the pairs.

Invert \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\! as follows:

  • (0,\, 0) becomes (0,\, 0).
  • (0,\, 1) becomes (1,\, 0).
  • (1,\, 0) becomes (0,\, 1).
  • (1,\, 1) becomes (1,\, 1).

In other words, the inverse of the mapping \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\! would be \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (1,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\!, which is the same as the original mapping. (Mappings are sets. There is no order between entries within a mapping.)

Thus, \lbrace (0,\, 0),\, (0,\, 1),\, (1,\, 0),\, (1,\, 1) \rbrace\! is an example of a non-function mapping that is still not a function.

More generally, the inverse of non-trivial ellipses (a class of continuous non-function \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} mappings, including circles) are also non-function mappings.

7-8÷4(3^2-1) ~answer step by step please~
Schach [20]

Answer:

-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

7 - 8/4 (3^2 - 1)

Hint: | Evaluate 3^2.

3^2 = 9:

7 - 8/4 (9 - 1)

Hint: | Subtract 1 from 9.

9 - 1 = 8:

7 - 2×8

Hint: | Divide 8 by 4.

8/4 = (4×2)/4 = 2:

7 - 2×8

Hint: | Multiply -2 and 8 together.

-2×8 = -16:

7 + -16

Hint: | Subtract 16 from 7.

7 - 16 = -9:

Answer:  -9
