Answer:

Case 1: As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

It is an 'odd' function with 'positive' a.

Case 2: As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

It is an 'even' function with 'negative' a.

Case 3: As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

It is an 'even' function with 'positive' a.

Case 4: As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

It is an 'odd' function with 'negative' a.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a monomial function:

             f(x) = axⁿ

Case 1:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

This happens only if a is 'positive' and n is 'odd'.  So, it is an 'odd' function with 'positive' a.

Case 2:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

This happens only if a is 'negative' and n is 'even'. So, it is an 'even' function with 'negative' a.

Case 3:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

This happens only if a is 'positive' and n is 'even'. So, it is an 'even' function with 'positive' a.

Case 4:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

This happens only if a is 'negative' and n is 'odd'. So, it is an 'odd' function with 'negative' a.

The sum of 3 consecutive integers is 72 find the integers
Elis [28]
-----------------------------------------
Define x :
-----------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2.

-----------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
-----------------------------------------
Sum of these numbers is 72
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72

-----------------------------------------
Solve for x :
-----------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 69
x = 23

-----------------------------------------
Find the numbers :
-----------------------------------------
1st number = x = 23
2nd number = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
3rd number = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : The numbers are 23, 24 and 25.

ΔXYZ was reflected to form ΔLMN.
goldfiish [28.3K]

ΔXYZ was reflected to form ΔLMN, hence ΔXYZ ≅ ΔLMN, ∠X ≅ ∠L and XZ ≅ LN

<h3>What is transformation?</h3>

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are <em>rotation, translation, reflection and dilation.</em>

Reflection is a rigid transformation, hence it produces congruent figures with congruent angles.

∠Y + ∠X + ∠Z = 180 (angle in a triangle)

86 + 38 + ∠Z = 180

∠Z = 56°

Also:

∠N + ∠M + ∠L = 180 (angle in a triangle)

86 + 56 + ∠L = 180

∠L = 38°

ΔXYZ was reflected to form ΔLMN, hence ΔXYZ ≅ ΔLMN, ∠X ≅ ∠L and XZ ≅ LN

Scott took out a 72 month loan for $35,000 to purchase a new boat. If Scott paid $8,925 in simple interest, what was the interes
diamong [38]

Answer:

Option 4.7% = 3,500 x 4.7% =$164.50 simple annual interest.

82.25 this is what Scott will pay in 6 months at simple interest.

 

Option 4.2% =3,500 x (1 +0.042/12)^6 =3,500 x 1.0035^6=$3,574.15.

3,500 =$74.15 this is what Scott will pay in 6 months at compounded interest.

 

The compound option is cheaper by: 74.15 =$8.10.
