Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

So, this is peicewise function. That means that x values have to be in a certain range in order to have a function. Look at this piecewise function, for example:

\left \{ {{7x+2       } \atop {x=2}} \right. { {{x=2} \atop {x=13}} \right.

When x is 2, you use the equation 7x+2.

When x is 13, you use the equation x=2.

Now we can use this graph to figure out the definition by looking at the points. An open circle means that a point can't reach that point (less than or greater than). A closed circle means that a point <em>can </em> touch there( less than or equal to and greater than or equal to).

So here, we have a closed circle at (-1, 1) and an open circle at (-1,2).

So, for all points that are less than or equal to -1, there will be a specific equation.

For all points greater than -1, there will be a different equation.

{this is based on x-values, btw}

So let's use these points to figure out the equations.

Check 2x + 2.

2(-1) + 2

-2 + 2 =0

This doesn't work.

Check 2x + 4

2 (-1) +4

-2 + 4 =2

This doesn't work.

Check x-2

-1-2 = -3

This doesn't work.

Check x + 2

-1 + 2 = 1

This works. Therefore, we can say that D is the answer.

The measures of the angles of XYZ are in the ratio 1:4:10. What are the measures of the angles?
Elanso [62]

Answer:the angles are 12 degrees, 48 degrees and 120 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

The measures of the angles of XYZ are in the ratio 1:4:10. The total ratio is the sum of the proportion of each angle. It becomes

1 + 4 + 10 = 15

Therefore, the measure of the first angle would be

1/15 × 180 = 12 degrees

Therefore, the measure of the second angle would be

4/15 × 180 = 48 degrees

Therefore, the measure of the third angle would be

10/15 × 180 = 120 degrees

Using (x + a) (x + b) = x² + (a + b) x + ab, evaluate 75 x 77
Gre4nikov [31]

(x + a) (x + b) = x² + (a + b) x + ab

75 * 77=

=(70+5)(70+7)

=70²+(5+7)*70+5*7

=4900+12*70+35

=4900+840+35

=5775
