Please help me!<br> Find the number x such that f(x) =1

STatiana [176]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the piecewise function:

$f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\frac{1}{2}x-1 & \quad x \leq -2 \\ x & \quad x > -2 \end{array} \right.$

And we want to find x such that f(x)=1.

So, let's substitute 1 for f(x):

$1 = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} -\frac{1}{2}x-1 & \quad x \leq -2 \\ x & \quad x > -2 \end{array} \right.$

This has two equations. So, we can separate them into two separate cases. Namely:

$1=-\frac{1}{2}x-1\text{ or } 1=x$

Let's solve for x in each case.

Case I:

We have:

$1=-\frac{1}{2}x-1$

Add 1 to both sides:

$2=-\frac{1}{2}x$

Let's cancel out the fraction by multiplying both sides by -2. So:

$2(-2)=(-2)\frac{-1}{2}x$

The right side cancels:

$-4=x\\$

Flip:

$x=-4$

So, x is -4.

Case II:

We have:

$1=x$

Flip:

$x=1$

This is the solution for our second case.

So, we have:

$x_1=-4\text{ or } x_2=1$

Now, can check to see if we have to to remove solution(s) that don't work.

Note that x=-4 is the solution to our first equation.

The first equation is defined only if x is less than -2.

-4 <em>is </em>less than -2. So, x=-4 is indeed a solution.

x=1 is the solution to our second equation.

The second equation is defined only if x is greater than or equal to -2.

1 <em>is</em> greater than or equal to -2. So, x=1 is <em>also </em>a solution.

Therefore, our two solutions are:

$x_1=-4\text{ or } x_2=1$

Out of our answer choices, we can pick D.

And we're done!

Which polynomial identity will prove that 49 − 4 = 45?

Marizza181 [45]

49 is a square of 7 and 4 is a square of 2. To get 45 you need to subtract 7² and 2². Therefore, its the difference of squares.

PLZZZ CHECK ME<br><br> Is this correct, if not please help me.

Gwar [14]

Hello! For this question, you solve using order of operations, which you probably already have remembered as PEMDAS. Anytime a number is raised to the 0 power, that is equivalent to 1. 0.5^0 is 1. 250 * 1 is 250. x = 0 gives us the answer of 250. Now, let's solve for the number by the second power. 0.5² is 0.25. 250 * 0.25 is 62.5. x² gives us 62.5. Now, let's subtract the two numbers together. 250 - 62.5 is 187.5. Because the number is decreasing, the slope is negative, so the answer is -187.5. Your answer is correct.

Answer:

To find the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon, take the sum of all interior angles and divide by the number of angles. The sum of all interior angles can be found by (n - 2)*180 where n is the number of sides, in this case 24. So all the interior angles add to 3960 degrees.
