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

Why would a box and whisker plot be unequal?
bearhunter [10]
Becasue the data may be skewed right or left (not symmetrical)

that is obvious when the median lean to left or right while the maximum and minimum records are still as they are.

Answer:

the probability is 50% or 1/2 (equally likely and equally unlikely)

That is because it does not state the amount of socks inside the draw; meaning the answer has to be theoretical.

If the probability is the same, than it has to equal to 100

so we can conclude that 1/2 of the drawer is blue socks and 1/2 is white socks.

How do I calculate f(x) from a graph
slamgirl [31]
Locate the number 2 on the x axis, draw a vertical line to the graph of the function, and then draw a horizontal line to the y axis, as shown below. The coordinates of the point are (2, f(2)). The y value of the point is f(2). Read the y value of this point on the y axis
