Because the absolute value makes anything positive so -11 to 11 and -7 to 7 which would mean that 11 >7 and -11<-7

When looking at the -7 and -11 it's like looking at a timeline you see the numbers from left to right so you would look at the -11 first and then the -7. whenever a number has the two lines it's the absolute value so you would ignore the negative signs and it would just be the number.

For the function f(x)=5x^2-7x, what is f(-3)?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=5x^2-7x

substitute x to 3

f(3)=5(3)^2-7(3)

f(3)=5(9)-21

f(3)=45-21

f(3)=24

PreCalc work, Need help with writing piece wise functions with graphs level 2. Giving branliest.
Natalija [7]

The piece-wise linear functions can be written as follows:

  • f(x) = -0.5x + 3, x < 5.
  • f(x) = -5, x = 5
  • f(x) = -x  + 9, x > 5.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For x less than 5, the y-intercept is of b = 3 and the function also gos through (2,2), hence the slope is:

m = (2 - 3)/(2 - 0) = -0.5.

Hence the rule is:

f(x) = -0.5x + 3, x < 5.

When x = 5, the function is constant at -5, hence:

f(x) = -5, x = 5

For x less than 5, the function goes through points (6,3) and (7,2), hence the slope is:

m = (2 - 3)/(7 - 6) = -1.

Then:

y = -x + b

When x = 6, y = 3, hence the y-intercept is given as follows:

3 = -6 + b

b = 9.

Hence the rule is:

f(x) = -x  + 9, x > 5.

7x - 12 - 3x = 2(2x + 5)<br><br> Solve for 15 Points
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

x = Ø

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 12 - 3x = 2(2x + 5)

4x - 12 = 4x + 10

4x = 4x + 22

0x = 22

x = Ø

Hope this helps dude

Use the Theorem of Pappus to find the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region bounded by the graphs ofy=x, y=10, and
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

C) 2094.40

nearest answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given region is bounded by y = x, y = 10 and x = 0

⇒ 0 ≤ y ≤ 10

Radius and Height are 'y'

∴ The required volume

= ∫₀¹⁰2π(radius)(height)dy

= ∫₀¹⁰2π (y) (y) dy

= ∫₀¹⁰2π y² dy

= 2π ∫₀¹⁰ y² dy

Integrate y

= 2\pi [\frac{y^3}{3}]_0^{10}

= 2\pi [\frac{10^3}{3} - 0]

= \frac{2000}{3} \pi

where π is 3.142

= 2,094.66

Victor is going to send some flowers to his wife. Dayton Florist charges $3 per rose, plus $12 for the vase. Tammy's Flowers, in
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: the costs would be the same if he orders 29 rose flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of roses that Victor would order such that the cost will be the same with either flower shop.

Dayton Florist charges $3 per rose, plus $12 for the vase. This means that if he orders x rose flowers, the total amount that he would pay is

3x + 12

Tammy's Flowers, in contrast, charges $2 per rose and $41 for the vase. This means that if he orders x rose flowers, the total amount that he would pay is 2x + 41

For the costs to be the same, the number of rose flowers that he orders would be

3x + 12 = 2x + 41

3x - 2x = 41 - 12

x = 29
