If 2x+ 3y = 55 and 4x= y+ 47, ﬁnd x − y. Can you please explain with some details?

4x=y+47, we can subtract 47 from both sides to get:
4x-47=y, now we know what y equals in terms of x, so we can substitute that in to the other equation:
2x+3y=55 becomes 2x+3*(4x-47)=55 which becomes:
2x+12x-141=55 which becomes 14x-141=55 and we can add 141 to both sides:
14x=196, divide 14 by both sides, we get x=14, which we can substitute back into the y=equation:
4x-47=y becomes 14*4-47=y which becomes y=9
x=14, y=9
x-y=14-9=5

A function f is _____ on an open interval I if, for any choice of x1 and x2 in I, with 1 less than

Answer:

If $f(x_1)\leq f(x_2)$ whenever $x_1\leq x_2$ f is increasing on I.

If $f(x_1)\geq f(x_2)$ whenever $x_1\leq x_2$ f is decreasing on I.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are definitions for real-valued functions f:I→R. To help you remember the definitions, you can interpret them in the following way:

When you choose any two numbers $x_1\leq x_2$ on I and compare their image under f, the following can happen.

$f(x_1)\leq f(x_2)$ . Because x2 is bigger than x1, you can think of f also becoming bigger, that is, f is increasing. The bigger the number x2, the bigger f becomes.

$f(x_1)\geq f(x_2)$ . The bigger the number x2, the smaller f becomes so f is "going down", that is, f is decreasing.

Note that this must hold for ALL choices of x1, x2. There exist many functions that are neither increasing nor decreasing, but usually some definition applies for continuous functions on a small enough interval I.
