What are the domain and range of the function f(x)= square rootx-7+9?

Answer:

Domain: [7, ∞)

Range: [9, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) This question may be easily answered if you are aware of the shape of the graph of sq. root x, and the effect of translations to graphs.

1. x - 7 means that the original graph is translated 7 units in the positive direction of the x-axis (ie. to the right), thus the minimum value for x is also shifted from 0 to 7

2. the + 9 means that the graph is translated 9 units in the positive direction of the y-axis (ie. up), thus the minimum y-value is also shifted from 0 to 9

3. We know that the graph will continue to infinity, both in the x- and y-direction

Thus, the domain would be [7, ∞) and the range [9, ∞)

2) Another way to think about it is to ask yourself when it would make sense for the graph to exist. For this, we must consider that you cannot take the square root of a negative number.

Thus, if we have the square root of (x - 7), for what value of x would (x - 7) be negative? If x = 7:

x - 7 = 7 - 7 = 0

Therefor, any x-value less than 7 will lead to a negative answer, which wouldn't be practical. Any value equal to or greater than 7 will lead to a positive answer, thus the permissible values for x are from 7 to infinity, and so the domain is [7, ∞) (note that square brackets are used for 7 as it is included in the domain, whereas infinity is always closed with round brackets).

If we have already found the domain, then we can simply substitute the values for this into the equation to obtain the range (note that this will work for a square root function, however some functions will have turning points and in this case you must calculate the range based on the turning points as well as the minimum and maximum x-values):

if x = 7: y = sq. root (7-7) + 9

= 9

This is the minimum value for y

if we have x = ∞, then the y value will also be infinitely great, therefor the maximum y-value is also ∞. Thus, the range is [9, ∞).

These questions are much easier to solve however if you are already aware of the basic graph and the effect of dilations, translations and reflections so that you may visualise it better.

A company making tires for bikes is concerned about the exact width of their cyclocross tires. The company has a lower specifica
deff fn [24]

Answer:

For this process, the capability index is 0.4444

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Lower specification limit = 22.8 mm

Upper specification limit = 23.2 mm

The standard deviation σ = 0.15 mm

Mean μ = 23

capability index Cpk = ?

Now, Using the formula;

Cpk = min{ [(USL - μ)/3σ], [(μ - LSL)/3σ]

where USL is the Upper specification limit, LSL is the Lower specification limit, σ is the standard deviation, μ is the mean

so we substitute

Cpk = min{ [(23.2 - 23 )/(3×0.15)], [(23 - 22.8)/(3×0.15)] }

Cpk = min{ [0.2 / 0.45 ], [0.2 / 0.45] }

Cpk = min{ [ 0.4444 ], [0.4444] }

Therefore, for this process, the capability index is 0.4444

Jerry bought 6.95 pounds of cherry and lime jelly beans dor his birthday party. If 1.75 pounds were cheery, how many pounds were
Gekata [30.6K]
So you have 6.95 pounds and 1.75 pounds of it is cherry. 

To find how many pounds you have of lime just subtract the amount of cherry.

6.95-1.75= 5.2 pounds of lime jelly beans

Please help me on #18, don't know how to do the question.

Option B) Determine the volume of the cake V= πr²h and divide that amount by 18

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  • It is given that, the birthday cake is in the shape of the cylinder.
  • Therefore, to find the entire volume of the cake, the volume of the cylinder formula is used.

<u>The volume of the cylinder is given by,</u>

Volume of the birthday cake = πr²h

After that, it was asked to find the volume of each piece of the cake.

In this case, the birthday cake is cut into 18 pieces.

We already know the total volume of the birthday cake which is πr²h.

In order to find the volume of each piece of cut cake, the total volume must be divided by the number of parts it has been cut into pieces.

Here, the whole part of the cake is 1.

The number of parts it has been divided after it is made into pieces = 18 parts.

Therefore, the volume of the birthday cake must be divided by 18 to get the volume of each piece of cake.

Option B) Determine the volume of the cake V= πr²h and divide that amount by 18 is correct.
