Answer:

$\frac{3}{16}$ part of a page.

Step-by-step explanation:

An article fills $\frac{1}{2}$ part of a magazine page.

Hence, if the total magazine page is x then $\frac{x}{2}$ of the magazine page is covered by an article.

Now, given that, a corresponding photo takes up $\frac{3}{8}$ part of the article.

Therefore, $\frac{x}{2}\times \frac{3}{8} =\frac{3x}{16}$ i.e. $\frac{3}{16}$ part of the total page is taken up by the photo. ( Answer )

<u>Answer:</u>

An article fills 1/2 of a magazine page. The photo takes 3/16th of the page

<u>Solution:</u>

A corresponding photo takes up 3/8 of the article

We have to find out how much of the page is taken by photo

This can be calculated by finding out the space taken by photo in the total article space

Space taken by article = 1/2 page

Space taken by photo= 3/8th of article

3/8th of article means 3/8th of 1/2

$=\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{16}$

Hence the corresponding photo takes 3/16 of the magazine page

Let f be the function defined as follows:

katen-ka-za [31]

With $f$ defined by

$f(x)=\begin{cases}|x-1|+2&\text{for }x$

in order for it to be continuous at $x=c$ , we require

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to c^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to c^+}f(x)=f(c)$

(i) If $a=2$ and $b=3$ , then $f(1)=2(1)^2+3(1)=5$ and

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to1}|x-1|+2=2$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^+}f(x)=\lim_{x\to1}2x^2+3x=5$

The limits don't match, so $f$ is not continuous at $x=1$ under these conditions.

(ii) To establish continuity at $x=1$ , we'd need the limit as $x\to1$ from the right to be equal to the limit from the left, or

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}ax^2+bx=\lim_{x\to1}|x-1|+2\iff a+b=2$

(iii) We have $f(2)=0$ and

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to2}ax^2+bx=4a+2b$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to2^+}f(x)=\lim_{x\to2}5x-10=0$

For $f$ to be continuous at $x=2$ , then, we'd need to have

$4a+2b=0$

(iv) Taking both requirements from parts (ii) and (iii), we solve for $a,b$ :

$\begin{cases}a+b=2\\4a+2b=0\end{cases}\implies a=-2,b=4$

I've attached a plot that confirms this is correct.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Popcorn is preferred by about 1/2 of the folks, so 3 of the 6 outcomes from a die roll will model this well. Only the 1st and 3rd choices show 3 outcomes representing Popcorn.

Hotdogs are preferred by about 1/6 of the folks, so 1 of the 6 outcomes from a die roll will model this well. Only the 1st and 2nd choices show 1 outcome representing Hotdogs.

Only the 1st choice models the preferences appropriately.
