The ceiling function also known as the least integer function is the function which takes the largest value of the integer for a non-integer number which lie between the two integers , and gives the integer itself if the number is integer.
and it is given by:
(
For example--
if x= 0.5
then f(x)=1 since x lie between 0 and 1
if x= -2.5
Then f(x)= -2
since x lie between -3 and -2.
if x=3
then f(x)=3 )
Also, the function is defined for all real values of x.
i.e. The domain of such a function is: All real numbers.
The cost is found by multiplying the number of feet by the cost per foot. The number of feet is the perimeter of the dining room, the sum of the lengths of all the sides.
There are two sides of the rectangular room that are 19 feet, and two sides that are 22 feet, so the total length of trim is ...
