I would say answer number 2
Answer:
Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.
Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or
an [a,b] entirely to the right of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.
Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.
Answer:
$1.94
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 3 folders = $2.91
We need to find the cost of 2 folders.
First we will find the cost of 1 folder
1 folder = $2.91/3 = $0.97
To find the cost of 2 folders, multiply $0.97 and 2
2 folders = $0.97 × 2
= $1.94
Hence, the cost of 2 olders is $1.94.
Answer: the length and width are
(x + 8) and (x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The rug has an area represented by the expression
Area = 4x² + 64x + 256.
The factors in the factored expressions represent the length and width of the rug.
Dividing the the equation by 4, it becomes
x² + 16x + 64 = 0
We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 16x and their product is 64x^2.
The two numbers are 8x and 8x. Therefore,
x² + 8x + 8x + 64 = 0
x(x + 8) + 8(x + 8) = 0
The factors are
(x + 8)(x + 8)
