Answer: c) 3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Plug in y = -9 and the given x-value to see if it makes a true statement.
a) -4.5 falls in the piecewise function x < -3 --> y = -x
y = -x
-9 = -(-4.5)
-9 = 4.5 FALSE
b) -3 falls in the piecewise function -3 ≤ x ≤ -2 --> y = 2x
y = 2x
-9 = 2(-3)
-9 = -6 FALSE
c) 3 falls in the piecewise function x > -2 --> y = -x²
y = -x²
-9 = -(-3)²
-9 = -9 TRUE
d) 9 falls in the piecewise function x > -2 --> y = -x²
y = -x²
-9 = -(9)²
-9 = -81 FALSE
Answer:
The rectangles are not similar
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to check whether they are similar, we need to take the ratio of their similar sides and ensure they are equal to a constant k.
Hence;
AB/PL = AD/LM = k
32/26 = 18/12 = k
16/13 = 9/6 = k
Since the scale factor is not the same, hence the rectangles are not the same.
Answer:
m=2
Step-by-step explanation:
42=8m+13m
or,42=21m
or,42/21=m
or,m=2
This is the required answer for m.
To check,
42=8×2+13×2
42=16+26
42=42
Correct
Answer:
<em>A) (-5,7)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Functions and Relations</u>
A set of values A can have a relation with another set B as long as at least one element of A has at least one image in B. Functions are special relations where each element of A (the domain of the function) has one and only one image on B (the range of the function).
By looking at the options, we can see that x=9, x=-8, and x=-1 already have defined values in Y, so if we define another value for any of them the relation will stop being a function. The only possible choice to preserve the function is the option

To start off, simplify the equation if needed:
3m>=21
Since both sides are divisible by 3, you can simplify for the equation to be
m>=7
Next is to find the domain of the line graph. Since the sign is more than or equal to (>=), the circle is closed.
And since m is MORE THAN OR EQUAL TO, the section starts at 7 (closed circle), and continues after. Therefore, your answer will be the third selection.
