A taxi company charges $1.00 for the first mile (or part of a mile) and 20 cents for each succeeding tenth of a mile (or part).

Express the cost C (in dollars) of a ride as a piecewise defined function of the distance x traveled (in miles) for 0 < x ≤ 2 and sketch a graph of this function.

Step-by-step explanation:

solving functions separately.

1st:  from given data taxi charges $1.00 for the first mile.so it is first rule of function.

y_{1} =1 , 0

2nd: the company charge $0.20 per tenth of a mile.so 2nd rule of the function will  be

y_{2} =1+0.2.10(x-1)

simplifying

y_{2} =1+2(x-1)

y_{2} =x+2x-2

y_{2} =x ,  1

piece wise function is f(x)={2 ,  0<x<1

                                              {x ,  1<x<2

the graph of the function is given below

The front row in a movie theatre has 23 seats. If you were asked to sit in the seat that occupied the median position, in which
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the one in the middle.  For an <u>odd</u> number of seats, average the first and last seat numbers.

(1 + 23) / 2 = 24 / 2 = 12.  That means there will be 11 people on your left and 11 people on your right.

For an even number of seats, the same method doesn't work as well!  If there are 14 seats, for example,  (1 + 14) / 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5,  and if you sit in "seat" 7 and a half, it will be awkward!
