Discuss the continuity of the function on the closed interval.Function Intervalf(x) = 9 − x, x ≤ 09 + 12x, x > 0 [−4, 5]The f

unction is discontinuous because all piecewise functions are discontinuous at their domain boundaries.The function is discontinuous because f(−4) ≠ f(5). The function is continuous because lim x→0− f(x) = lim x→0+ f(x) = f(0) = 9.The function is continuous because the domain boundary is not inside the interval [−4, 5].The function is continuous because lim x→−4+ f(x) and lim x→5− f(x) both exist.

Answer:

It is continuous since \lim_{x\to 0^{-}} = f(0) = \lim_{x \to 0^{+} f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the function is defined as follows f(x) = 9-x, x\leq 0 and f(x) = 9+12x, x>0 and we want to check the continuity in the interval [-4,5]. Note that this a piecewise function whose only critical point (that might be a candidate of a discontinuity)  x=0 since at this point is where the function "changes" of definition. Note that 9-x and 9+12x are polynomials that are continous over all \mathbb{R}. So F is continous in the intervals [-4,0) and (0,5]. To check if f(x) is continuous at 0, we must check that

\lim_{x\to 0^{-}} = f(0) = \lim_{x \to 0^{+} f(x) (this is the definition of continuity at x=0)

Note that if x=0, then f(x) = 9-x. So, f(0)=9. On the same time, note that

\lim_{x\to 0^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x\to 0^{-}} 9-x = 9. This result is because the function 9-x is continous at x=0, so the left-hand limit is equal to the value of the function at 0.

Note that when x>0, we have that f(x) = 9+12x. In this case, we have that

\lim_{x\to 0^{+}} f(x) = \lim_{x\to 0^{+}} 9+12x = 9. As before, this result is because the function 9+12x is continous at x=0, so the right-hand limit is equal to the value of the function at 0.

Thus, \lim_{x\to 0^{-}} = f(0) = \lim_{x \to 0^{+} f(x)=9, so by definition, f is continuous at x=0, hence continuous over the interval [-4,5].

Answer:

  \boxed{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the rules of logarithms is ...

  log(a^b) = b·log(a)

So ...

6\log_5{x^3}=6(3\log_5{x})=\bf{18}\log_5{x}

Answer:

60 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Has 33 now. Before adding 13 stamps, she had (33-13) 30. This is half of her total, since she already sold half. To get the whole, multiply 30 by 2. 60 She started with 60

A banner is in the shape of a right triangle. the area is 63 inches. The height of the banner is 4 in less than twice the width
Blizzard [7]
Area=1/2 times base times height
note:bh=base times height

a=1/2bh
b=width

h=-4+2w
h=2w-4
subsitute
a=1/2w(2w-4)
a=1/2(2s^2-4w)
a=w^2-2w
a=63
63=w^2-2w
subtract 63 from both sdies
0=w^2-2w-63
factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -63 and add to get -2
the numbers are -9 and 7
so
0=(w-9)(w+7)
if xy=0 then x and/or y=0

so
w-9=0
w+7=0

solve each
w-9=0
add 9 to both sdies
w=9

w+7=0
subtract 7 from both sides
w=-7
width cannot be negative so this can be discarded

width=9

subsitute
l=2w-4
l=2(9)-4
l=18-4
l=14
