A bucket has 16 inches of water in it but there is a hole in the bottom. Use interval notation to write the domain and range of

the function H(x) = 16 - 1.25x, where x is the time the water has been leaking for (in minutes) and is the height of the water (in inches). *

Answer: range:  {0in, 16in}

               domain {0min, 12.8 min}

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a function:

f(x) = y.

The range is the set of possible values of y and the domain is the set of all the possible values of x.

In this case, our function is:

H(x) = 16 - 1.25*x

which is a linear equation, and we know that the linear equations are defined (for range and domain) in the set of all the real numbers, but this is a physical situation, so we must see at the real problem.

The bucket can not have more water than the initial amount, 16 inches, so this is the maximum in the range.

The minimum height of water that we can find in the bucket is 0 inches (so the bucket is empty) then this is the minimum of the range.

Then we can write the range as:

R: 0in ≤ y ≤ 16in. = {0in, 16in}

Now we can find the extremes of the domain by using the extremes of the range:

y = 16 = 16 - 1.25*x

       0 = -1.25*x

then we have x = 0min, this will be the minimum of the domain.

Now using the minimum of the range y = 0 we have:

y  = 0 = 16 - 1.25*x

      1.25*x = 16

            x  = 16/1.25 = 12.8 mins

This is the maximum time in the domain (because after this time, there is no water in the bucket)

Then the domain is:

D: 0min ≤ x ≤ 12.8 min

Answer:

1. 13, 18, 23, 28, 33, 38, 43, 48, 53

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is 5 more than the previous term.

2. 512, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is half of the previous term.

3. 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is a cube. To find the nth term, cube n.

4. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is the next consecutive prime number.

5. <u><em>Correct as is</em></u>

6. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is the sum of the 2 previous numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Given: 13, 18, 23, 28

<em>We add 5 to each number</em>

13 + 5 = 18

18 + 5 = 23

23 + 5 = 28

28 + 5 = 33

33 + 5 = 38

38 + 5 = 43

43 + 5 = 48

48 + 5 = 53

2.

Given : 512, 256, 128, 64

<em>Divide each number by 2</em>

512 ÷ 2 =256

256 ÷ 2 = 128

128 ÷ 2 = 64

64 ÷ 2 = 32

32 ÷ 2 = 16

16 ÷ 2 = 8

8 ÷ 2 = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

3.

Given: 1, 8, 27, 64

<em>We have to cube n:</em>

<u><em>n³ = consecutive number cubed</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

1³ = 1 or 1 × 1 × 1

2³ = 8 or 2 × 2 × 2

3³ = 27 or 3 × 3 × 3

4³ = 64 or 4 × 4 × 4

5³ = 125 or 5 × 5 × 5

6³ = 216 or 6 × 6 × 6

7³ = 343 or 7 × 7 × 7

8³ = 512 or 8 × 8 × 8

9³ = 729 or 9 × 9 × 9

4.

Consecutive prime number: <u><em>Consecutive prime numbers are those that have no gaps or prime numbers between them.</em></u>

Look at the picture in the link:

6.

Given: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8

<em>We must add the two previous numbers to get the next term:</em>

1 + 1 = 2

1 + 2 = 3

2 + 3 = 5

3 + 5 = 8

5 + 8 = 13

8 + 13 = 21

13 + 21 = 34

21 = 34 = 55

34 + 55 = 89

Let event A = You roll an even number on the first cube.Let event B = You roll a 6 on the second cube.Are the events independent
Gnesinka [82]

The events are independent. By definition, it means that knowledge about one event does not help you predict the second, and this is the case: even if you knew that you rolled an even number on the first cube, would you be more or less confident about rolling a six on the second? No.

An example in which two events about rolling cubes are dependent could be something like:

Event A: You roll the first cube

Event B: The second cube returns a higher number than the first one.

In this case, knowledge on event A does change you view on event B (and vice versa): if you know that you rolled a 6 on the first cube you don't want to bet on event B, while if you know that you rolled a 1 on the first cube, you're certain that event B will happen.

Conversely, if you know that event B has happened, you are more likely to think that the first cube rolled a small number, and vice versa.

Using the order of operations, what is the last calculation that should be done to evaluate
mel-nik [20]

200-(-2) is actually 200-1(-2)

So thats multiplication

Then its 200+2

So addition is the last calculation to be done.

The graph of this system of equations is used to solve 4x2-3+6=2x4-9x3+2x What represents the solution set?
Vilka [71]

ANSWER

x coordinates of the intersection points

EXPLANATION

The given system of equations is:

y = 4 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 6

y = 2 {x}^{4}  - 9 {x}^{3}  + 2x

We want to use the graph of these functions to solve

4 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 6 =  2 {x}^{4}  - 9 {x}^{3}  + 2x

The point of the intersection of the graph gives the solution to the simultaneous equation above.

Hence the x-coordinates of the intersection points gives the solution set of

4 {x}^{2}  - 3x + 6 =  2 {x}^{4}  - 9 {x}^{3}  + 2x

The last choice is correct.
