What is the discontinuity of the function f(x) = the quantity of x squared minus 3 x minus 28, all over x plus 4?

1 answer:

8 0

For the answer to the question above,
You get discontinuity when in this function you divide by 0. You will divide by 0 if x+4 = 0. That means that x = -4

y value for this example doesn't matter because for x = -4 you will have the discontinuity. Since the only answer that has -4 as x value is D, that has to be the solution.

So the answer is (-4,-11)

Carissa also has a sink that is shaped like a half sphere. The sink has a volume of 4000/ 3 * π in 3. One day, her sink clogged.

givi [52]

Answer:

Part a) 119 cups

Part b) 30 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

step 1

Find the volume of the conical cup with a diameter of 4 in. and a height of 8 in

The volume of the cone (cup) is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

we have

$r=4/2=2\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=8\ in$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(2^{2})8=33.49\ in^3$

step 2

Find out how many cups of water must Carissa scoop out of the sink

Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup

$\frac{4,000}{33.49}= 119\ cups$

Part b)

step 1

Find the volume of the conical cup with a diameter of 8 in. and a height of 8 in

The volume of the cone (cup) is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

we have

$r=8/2=4\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$h=8\ in$

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$V=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4^{2})8=133.97\ in^3$

step 2

Find out how many cups of water must Carissa scoop out of the sink

Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup

$\frac{4,000}{133.97}= 30\ cups$

Help!!

Elza [17]

Answer:

$(b)\ 2x - 9 = -1$

$(c)\ -2x + 12 = 4$

$(e)\ 2(x - 10) = -12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Which equals $x = 4$

$(a)\ 2x + 6 = 2$

Collect like terms

$2x = 2 - 6$

$2x = -4$

Divide both sides by 2

$x = -2$

$(b)\ 2x - 9 = -1$

Collect like terms

$2x = -1 + 9$

$2x = 8$

Divide both sides by 2

$x = 4$

$(c)\ -2x + 12 = 4$

Collect like terms

$-2x =- 12 + 4$

$-2x =-8$

Divide both sides by -2

$x = 4$

$(d)\ 2(x + 2) = 10$

Divide both sides by 2

$x + 2 =5$

Collect like terms

$x = 5-2$

$x = 3$

$(e)\ 2(x - 10) = -12$

Divide both sides by 2

$x - 10 = -6$

Collect like terms

$x = 10 - 6$

$x = 4$

Hence, the equations with the required solution are:

$(b)\ 2x - 9 = -1$

$(c)\ -2x + 12 = 4$

$(e)\ 2(x - 10) = -12$

Jodie Meeks's Free Throws During the 2015-16 NBA season, Jodie Meeks of the Detroit Pistons had a free throw shooting percentage

Damm [24]

Answer:

0.8973

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant data provided in the question as per the question below:

Free throw shooting percentage = 0.906

Free throws = 6

At least = 5

Based on the above information, the probability is

Let us assume the X signifies the number of free throws

So, Then X ≈ Bin (n = 6, p = 0.906)

$P = (X = x) = $\sum\limits_{x}^6 (0.906)^x (1 - 0.906)^{6-x}, x = 0,1,2,3,.., 6$

Now

The Required probability = P(X ≥ 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)

$= $\sum\limits_{5}^6 (0.906)^5 (1 - 0.906)^{6-5} + $\sum\limits_{6}^6 (0.906)^6 (1 - 0.906)^{6-6}$

= 0.8973
