The piecewise function tells us specific rules he should execute based on the input x we put in. For example for answer A is true since we use the top function f(x) = -x + 1 since the input is -1 which is less than 0 (x < 0). We check to make sure the equation comes out true:
f(-1) = -(-1) + 1
f(-1) = 2 ✓
Answer: Well if you were going to think of a circle you can divide it into 4 equal sizes in one of the is equal to two pentagons and a half. If you add all is equal to a loop full of pentagons [which makes 10 pentagons]. Because the ring is made out of regular pentagons, we can work out that each of the interior angles of each pentagon is 108* degrees. By extending the lines that two pentagons share, assuming they will all meet in the middle, it will create a triangle. As we know each angle of a [regular] pentagon is 108* degrees, we know the two base angles of the triangle would equal to 72** which leaves the top angle to be 36 degrees. As [the sum of] angles at a point is 360 degrees, and 36 is divisible by 360, it will make a complete ring. Also, as 360 ÷ 36 = 10, we know that the ring will be made out of 10 pentagons. as formula to calculate the the size of a interior angle of a polygon is (n×180−360)÷n (for n being the number of sides that the polygon has). because the triangle is made by extending the lines, and angles on a line is 180 degrees, 180−108 (an interior angle of a pentagon) =72.
Copper because that's what wires are made from and they help transport electricity
Answer: F. Students 1 and 4.
Step-by-step explanation: Students 1 and 4 because algebraic expressions do not have equal signs, and students 1 and 4 don't have equal signs, as equal signs can be found in algebraic <u>equations</u>.
Answer:
This is easy -- it's just a list of steps. At this level, the problems are pretty simple.
Let's just do one, then I'll write out the list of steps for you.
Find the inverse of f( x ) = -( 1 / 3 )x + 1
STEP 1: Stick a "y" in for the "f(x)" guy:
y = -( 1 / 3 )x + 1
STEP 2: Switch the x and y
( because every (x, y) has a (y, x) partner! ):
x = -( 1 / 3 )y + 1
STEP 3: Solve for y:
x = -( 1 / 3 )y + 1 ... multiply by 3 to ditch the fraction ... 3x = -y + 3 ... ditch the +3 ... subtract 3 from both sides ... 3x - 3 = -y ... multiply by -1 ... -3x + 3 = y ... y = -3x + 3
STEP 4: Stick in the inverse notation, f^( -1 )( x )
f^( -1 )( x ) = -3x + 3
