Please help me with domain and range of graphs Part 1​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

  • see the attached for domain
  • Range: (-∞, 4], [3, ∞), [-3, 1]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the horizontal extent of the graph. When the graph has arrows on the end, it extends to infinity in the indicated direction.

__

The range is the vertical extent of the graph.

<u>Left Graph</u>

We assume the curve is intended to touch, not cross, the line y=4, so the range is ...

  range: (-∞, 4]

__

<u>Middle Graph</u>

We assume the graph continues along the line y=3 to the right indefinitely. Then this value is the minimum of the range.

  range: [3, ∞)

__

<u>Right Graph</u>

The low point on the graph is at y=-3, and it looks like the graph continues to the right along the line y=1. Then the range is ...

  range: [-3, 1]

A fair coin is tossed repeatedly. What is the probability that three heads in a row will occur before a tail followed by two hea
Masteriza [31]

The probability that you can get N heads in a row would be:

Let <span>p</span> be the probability of flipping a heads. Let <span>x</span> be number of flips needed to achieve <span>h </span>consecutive heads. The solution is <span><span>E(x) = (<span><span>1−<span>p^h) / (</span></span><span><span>p^h</span>(1−p))</span></span></span></span>

This expression may be derived as follows. The probability of being successful immediately is <span><span>p^r.</span></span> However, one might get a tails immediately. In that case, the number of flips needed is <span><span>1+E(x) </span></span>(one flip has been used and we are back to the original position). We might get a heads and then a tails. In this case two flips have been used and we are back to the original position. Continue this up to <span><span>h−1</span></span> heads followed by a tails in which case <span>h</span> flips have been used and we are back to the original position.

A pole that is 3.1 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.57 m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that id 50.5 m lon
hammer [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.

2 objects and their shadows at the same time create therefore two similar right-angled triangular

triangles.

that means the angles are the same, and each side length of one triangle correlates to the corresponding side length of the other triangle by the same factor.

so, when we know the factor of one pair of sides, we can calculate the lengths of the others by using the same factor.

therefore,

1.57 × f = 50.5

f = 50.5 / 1.57 = 32.1656051...

the height of the tower is then

3.1 × f = 3.1 × 32.1656051... = 99.7133758... m ≈ 100 m

-5X^2 + 3X = -3X^2 + 3X - 50  solve for x ​
zhenek [66]

-5x^2+3x = -3x^2 +3x -50\\\\\implies 5x^2-3x^2 +3x-3x -50 =0\\\\\implies 2x^2 -50 =0\\\\\implies x^2 -25 = 0\\\\\implies x^2 = 25\\\\\implies x = \pm5\\\\\text{Hence}~ x = 5~ \text{or}~ x = -5
