Answer:

a) Suppose that F is ordered in ascending order: F = \{x_1,\ldots, x_n\}. Then, the complement of F can be written as

F^c = (-\infty,x_1)\cup (x_1,x_2)\cup (x_2,x_3)\cup \cdots \cup (x_{n-1}, x_{n})\cup (x_n,+\infty)

which is the union of a finite number of open intervals, then F^c is an open set. Thus, F is a closed subset of the real numbers.

b) Take an arbitrary element of F, let us say x_k. Now, choose a real number \epsilon such that

0 there are not other element of F, because \epsilon is less that the minimum distance between x_k and its neighbors.

In case that k=1 we only consider 0, and if k=n we only consider 0.

Then, all points of F are isolated.

Consider Z1= 4-4 radical 3i and Z2= -16 i. What is Z1-Z2?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Z_1=4-4\sqrt{3}i

Z_2=-16i

Z_1-Z_2=(4-4\sqrt{3}i)-(-16i)

            =4-4\sqrt{3}i+16i

            =4-(4\sqrt{3}i-16i)

            =4-4(\sqrt{3}-4)i

Therefore, Option (3) will be the correct option.

2. Compare the function ƒ(x) = –x^2 + 4x – 5 and the function g(x), whose graph is shown. Which function has a greater absolute
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex of g(x) as shwon in the graph is located in the point wich coordinates are (3.5,6.25) approximatively

We need to khow the coordinates of f(x) vertex

  • Here is a way without derivating:

f(x) = -x² + 4x -5

let a be the leading factor, b the factor of x and c the constant:

  • a= -1
  • b= 4
  • c= -5

The coordinates of a vertex are: (\frac{-b}{2a} , f(\frac{-b}{2a}) )

-b/2a = -4/ (-1*2) = 4/2 = 2

f(2)= -2²+4*2-4 = -4+4-4 = -4

obviosly f(x) has a minimum wich less than g(x)'s maximum

Find the point on the line y = 2x + 3 that is closest to the origin.
ch4aika [34]
1)We have to make a line perpendicular to y=2x+3, passing through the point (0,0).

y=2x+3   
m=solpe=2

The slope of the line perpedicular to y=2x+3 is m´
m´=-1/m
m´=-1/2

Point slope form:
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
(0,0)
m=-1/2

y-0=-1/2(x-0)
y=-x/2

Therefore, the line perpendicular to y=2x+3 is y=-x/2.

2)The point on the line y=2x+3 tha is closest to the origin is the point of intersection of the two lines.

y=2x+3
y=-x/2

We can solve this system of equations by equalization method.
2x+3=-x/2
least common multiple=2
4x+6=-x
4x+x=-6
5x=-6
x=-6/5  (=-1.2)

y=-x/2
y=-(-6/5)/2=6/10=3/5    (=0,6)

Therefore: the point of the line y=2x+3 that is closest to the origin is:
 (-1.2 , 0.6)
