If the population doubles every 20 minutes, and the can is full at 6:00PM, then the can must have been half full 20 minutes before 6:00PM or 5:40PM 

<span>Likewise the can is: </span>
<span>Full at 6:00PM </span>
<span>Half full at 6:00-0:20 = 5:40PM </span>
<span>1/4 full at 5:40 - 0:20 = 5:20PM </span>
<span>1/8 full at 5:20 - 0:20 = 5:00PM </span>
<span>1/16 full at 5:00 - 0:20 = 4:40PM</span>

Your descriptors are mostly correct, assuming the column headings are something like ...

... function ... domain ... range ... odd/even ... intercepts ... increasing/decreasing ... ??? ... critical points

_____

√x is increasing on the interval [0, ∞). There is no branch where the function is decreasing.

1/x has a critical point at x=0. The slope is undefined there.

Given the equation 5+x-14=x-7: Part A. Solve the equation 5+x-14=x-7. In your final answer, be sure to state the solution and in
docker41 [41]
Part 1/

5 + x - 14 = x - 7
We’ll cancel (X) from both sides;
5 - 14 = -7
-9 = -7
Since, -9 = -7 is False, there is no solution.

———

Part2/

If we use x = -2, 0, 3

1) Case of X = -2

5 + (-2) - 14 = (-2) - 7
5 - 2 - 14 = -2 - 7
3 - 14 = -9
-11 = -9 .... False / No Solution



2) Case of X = 0

5 + (0) - 14 = (0) - 7
5 - 14 = -7
-9 = -7 ... False / No Solution



3) Case of X = 3
5 + (3) - 14 = (3) - 7
8 - 14 = -4
-6 = -4 ... False / No Solution
