Divide 794.1 by 7.61 Point round off your answer to two decimal places

<span>By dividing the two numbers we get 104.3495... Rounding this number to two decimal places means that we must keep just 2 digits after the "." symbol, and round the last one of them. In our case, 104.3495... becomes 104.35.</span>

What is the range of this piecewise function

White raven [17]

Answer as a compound inequality: $-4 \le y < 2$

Answer in interval notation: [-4, 2)

=============================================

Explanation:

The range is the set of all possible y outputs of a function. When dealing with a graph like this, we just look at the highest and lowest points to determine which y values are possible.

The lowest point occurs when y = -4. We include this value. So far we have $y \ge -4$ which is the same as $-4 \le y$

The upper ceiling for the y value is y = 2. We can't actually reach this value because of the open hole at (-3,2). So we say that $y < 2$

Combine $-4 \le y$ and $y < 2$ to get the compound inequality $-4 \le y < 2$

This says y is between -4 and 2, including -4 but excluding 2.

To convert this to interval notation, we write [-4, 2) where the square bracket says to include the endpoint and the curved parenthesis says to exclude the endpoint.

What is 859 under a thousand as a mixed number?

Semmy [17]

To convert the improper fraction $\frac{1000}{859}$ into a mixed number, you first want to divide the numerator (1000) by the denominator (859):
$1000 \div 859 = 1 R141$

The quotient, which is 1, will be your whole number part of your mixed number. The remainder, 141, will become the numerator of the fraction part of your mixed number. The original denominator of your improper fraction, 859, is still the denominator of your mixed number. So your mixed number form of your improper fraction is:
$\frac{1000}{859} = 1 \frac{141}{859}$

Your answer is $1 \frac{141}{859}$

Solve y=f(x) for x. Then find the input when the output is -3.

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Please check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)\:=\:\left(x-5\right)^3-1$

Given that the output = -3

i.e. y = -3

now substituting the value y=-3 and solve for x to determine the input 'x'

$\:\:y=\:\left(x-5\right)^3-1$

$-3\:=\:\left(x-5\right)^3-1\:\:\:$

switch sides

$\left(x-5\right)^3-1=-3$

Add 1 to both sides

$\left(x-5\right)^3-1+1=-3+1$

$\left(x-5\right)^3=-2$

$\mathrm{For\:}g^3\left(x\right)=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}g\left(x\right)=\sqrt[3]{f\left(a\right)},\:\sqrt[3]{f\left(a\right)}\frac{-1-\sqrt{3}i}{2},\:\sqrt[3]{f\left(a\right)}\frac{-1+\sqrt{3}i}{2}$

Thus, the input values are:

$x=-\sqrt[3]{2}+5,\:x=\frac{\sqrt[3]{2}\left(1+5\cdot \:2^{\frac{2}{3}}\right)}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt[3]{2}\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=\frac{\sqrt[3]{2}\left(1+5\cdot \:2^{\frac{2}{3}}\right)}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt[3]{2}\sqrt{3}}{2}$

And the real input is:

$x=-\sqrt[3]{2}+5$

$x=3.74$
