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].

In Mona’s new video game she earns 30 points for each fish caught and 80 points for each octopus captured, but she loses 15 poin
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
If x is fish, y is octopi, and z is crabs, then you would have to know the numbers.
Then your answer would be c. 30x+80y-15z.
Because x=+30, y=+80, and z=-15.
I hope that helps. If you need any further help on this problem just ask.

The ages of undergraduate students in a state
Elan Coil [88]

The percent of students that are aged 19 years or more is determined as 84%.

<h3>One standard deviation below the mean</h3>

In a normal distribution curve 1 standard deviation below the mean is defined as follows;

  • 1 std below mean : M - d = 16%

M - d = 20.6 yrs - 1.3 yrs = 19.3 years ≈ 19 years

19 years or more will occur at (M - d) + (M) + (M + 2d) = 100% - (M - d)

                                                                                       = 100% - 16%

                                                                                       = 84%

Thus, the percent of students that are aged 19 years or more is determined as 84%.
