In piecewise linear functions, the endpoint of one segment and the initial point of the next segment can have the same x-coordinate but a different value of f(x).
Such difference in values is called a step or discontinuity and such a function is called a discontinuous function.
Here in this case, there are 3 discontinuities: x=-3, x=3 and x = 5.
x = -3 because x is smaller than or greater than -3 but not equal.
x = 3 since greater than 3 in one of the inequalities.
x = 5 since x is smaller than 5 in one of the limits.
Answer:
<em><u>5/18</u></em> is not equivalent to 1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
9/27, 2/6 and 15/45 are equivalent to 1/3.
Annual growth rate is (1+0.15)^12. or 5.35025 or 535.025%
Answer:
(3, 0).
Step-by-step explanation:
dentifying the vertices of the feasible region. Graphing is often a good way to do it, or you can solve the equations pairwise to identify the x- and y-values that are at the limits of the region.
In the attached graph, the solution spaces of the last two constraints are shown in red and blue, and their overlap is shown in purple. Hence the vertices of the feasible region are the vertices of the purple area: (0, 0), (0, 1), (1.5, 1.5), and (3, 0).
The signs of the variables in the contraint function (+ for x, - for y) tell you that to maximize C, you want to make y as small as possible, while making x as large as possible at the same time.
Hence, The Answer is ( 3, 0)
