When you represent intervals on the number line, you're including full dots, excluding empty dots, and you're considering numbers highlighted by the line.
In the first case, you've highlighted everything before -2 (full dot, thus included), and everything after 1 (empty dot, excluded). So, the set would be
or, in interval notation,
In the second case, you are looking for all numbers between -3 and 5. This interval is symmetric with respect to 1: you're considering all numbers that are at most 4 units away from 1, both to the left and to the right.
This means that the difference between your numbers at 1 must be at most 4, which is modelled by
where the absolute values guarantees that you'll pick numbers to the left and to the right of 1.
Answer:
a) Y(x) = {900, x≤30; 900-40(x-30), x>30}
b) T(x) = {900x, x≤30; 2100x-40x², x>30}
c) dT/dx = {900, x≤30; 2100-80x, x>30}
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The problem statement gives the function for x ≤ 30, and gives an example of evaluating the function for x = 35. So, replacing 35 in the example with x gives the function definition for x > 30.
__
b) The yield per acre is the product of the number of trees and the yield per tree:
T(x) = x·Y(x)
__
c) The derivative is ...
_____
The attached graph shows the yield per acre (purple, overlaid by red for x<30), the total yield (black), and the derivative of the total yield (red). You will note the discontinuity in the derivative at x=30, where adding one more tree per acre suddenly makes the rate of change of yield be negative.
