Considering that the car does 50 miles per gallon, the linear function for the number of gallons of fuel in Jim's fuel tank, n, in terms of the number of miles x that Jim has driven since filling his tank is given by:
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
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.
In this problem:
- Jim's car holds 14 gallons of fuel, hence
.
- Considering it does 50 miles per gallon, and the amount in the tank will decrease, the slope is
.
Hence, the function is:

Look at it this way:
When you flip a coin, the probability of it landing with EITHER side showing
is 100%.
This leads us to the rule ...
The sum of the probabilities of
all possible outcomes is 100%.
For a coin: (probability of heads) plus (probability of tails) = 100%.
That just says: We're 100% sure that the coin will land with either
heads or tails up.
An "honest" coin gets heads 50% of the time and tails the other 50%.
But if the coin is all bent and squashed and has a feather stuck to
one side and a wad of gum on the other side so that it comes up
heads 70% of the time, then the coin isn't 'honest'. But it still has to
land EITHER heads OR tails, so the sum of the probabilities is still 100%.
So the probability of heads is 30%.
Answer:
A piecewise function.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem you showed is a <em>piecewise function.</em>
In this problem, you have to plug in 3 for the value x.
However, if you take a look at the conditions that value x has, it never says that x can equal 3. <em>Thus, this function cannot be true.</em>
<em>Way to check this input is undefined: </em>
Plug in 3 for the variable x. On the first function, your output will be 4. On the second function, your output will be 8.
According to the definition of a function, a function can have many inputs but only one output. In this case, this function has one input, that is 3, but produces two outputs.
Answer: 5x+16
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute
2x+12 + 3x + 4
Add like terms
5x+16
45 degrees? I may be wrong. 360/8=45
