A product of two (or more) factor can be zero if and only if at least one of the factors is zero.

In other words, you cannot multiply two non-zero real numbers, and have zero as a result.

So, if we want the product of these two factors to be zero, at least one of them has to be zero.

The first factor is zero if

x-2 = 0 \iff x=2

The second factor is zero if

x+5 = 0 \iff x=-5

Let f(x)= [x/3] (where f(x) is the ceiling function). We learned that the floor and the ceiling functions are NOT invertible, bu

(a) We have ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = 5 if 5 ≤ <em>x</em> < 6, and similarly ⌊<em>x</em>/3⌋ = 5 if

5 ≤ <em>x</em>/3 < 6   ==>   15 ≤ <em>x</em> < 18

(b) ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = -2 if -2 ≤ <em>x</em> < -1, so ⌊<em>x</em>/3⌋ = -2 if

-2 ≤ <em>x</em>/3 < -1   ==>   -6 ≤ <em>x</em> < -3

In general, ⌊<em>x</em>⌋ = <em>n</em> if <em>n</em> ≤ <em>x</em> < <em>n</em> + 1, where <em>n</em> is any integer.

I do not understand what is being asked in (c) and (d), so you'll have to clarify...

Which relationship describes angles 1 and 2?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Supplementary Angles

Adjacent Angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1 and 2 share a vertex and form a straight line. These angles are called supplementary angles. They add to 180 degrees and form a straight line. They are adjacent as well because they share a vertex and side.

3y - 5z = -23
leonid [27]
Starting off, we can multiply the third equation by 2 and add it to the third to get rid of both the x and y variables. Next, we get z=1. Plugging that into 3y-5z=-23, we get 3y-5=-23. Adding 5 to both sides, we get 3y=-18. After that, we can divide both sides by 3 to get y=-6. Plugging that into -2x-y-z=-3, we get -2x+6-1=-3=-2x+5. Subtracting 5x from both sides, we get -2x=-8. After that, we can divide both sides by -2 to get x=4.
