There were 35 people attending the Little League baseball game. The difference between the number of women and men at the game w

as 9.
Let x represent the number of women and y represent the number of men. The following system of equations represents this situation:

x+y=35

x−y=9

How many women and men were at the game?

(Note: I am solving the system of equations using the elimination method)

1. Cancel out a variable and add the polynomials
x + y = 35
x - y = 9
2x = 44
2       2
x  = 22

2. Substitute and solve for the other variable
(22) + y = 35
22 + y = 35
-22         -22
y = 13

3. Substitute Ordered Pairs (Optional)
(22) + (13) = 35
35 = 35

22 women and 13 men were at the game.

Consider the inverse function. Which conclusions can be drawn about f(x) = x2 + 2? Select three options. f(x) has a limited rang
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

f(x) has a limited range

f(x) has a maximum at the point (0, 2)

f(x) has a y-intercept at the point (0, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function;

f(x) = x^2+2

The domain is the value of the input variables for which the function will exist. According to the expression given, the function exists on all real values of x. The same goes with range which deals with the output values. It also exists on all real values from 2 and above.

Hence f(x) have a limited range (since values less than 2 are not included compare to domain that exists on all real values) and does not have a restricted domain.

For the x intercept, x intercept occur at y = 0

substitute y = 0 into the function and get y

if y = f(x)

y = x^2+2

0 = x^2 + 2

x^2 = -2

x = 2i

Hence  f(x) does not have an x-intercept of (2, 0)

For the y intercept, y intercept occur at x = 0

substitute x = 0 into the function and get y

if y = f(x)

y = x^2+2

y = 0^2 + 2

y = 2

Hence  f(x) has a y-intercept at point (0, 2)

f(x) is at maximum if d(fx))/dx = 0

d(fx))/dx  = 2x

since  d(fx))/dx  = 0

0 = 2x

x = 0

substitute x = 0 into the function

f(x) = x^2 + 2

y = 0^2+2

y = 2

Hence f(x) has a maximum at the point (0, 2)
