The height of a building is

Mathematics
1 answer:
eduard2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of scale

where scale is

actual height of any object/ height of that object on drawing

given

actual height = 24 feet

this is represented 1/2 inch on drawing

thus

scale = actual height/ height on drawing = 24 feet/1/2 inch = 24*2 feet/ 1 inch

scale = 48 feet / 1 inch

given actual  height of a building = 480 feet

let the height on drawing be x inch

thus

48 feet / 1 inch = 480 feet/ x inch

=> x inch/ 1 inch = 480 feet / 48 feet

=> x = 10 feet

Thus,  the  height of  building on the drawing is 10 feet

What kind of function is being illustrated by f(x)=|2x³-3x|+5?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Option D: Absolute value function

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value of a number is the distance of the number from 0 to the left or right on the number line.

We are given the function;

f(x) = |2x³ - 3x| + 5

This function contains an absolute value symbol which is |2x³ - 3x|.

This function is thus illustrated by an an absolute value function because an absolute value function will be one that contains algebraic expressions within absolute value symbols.

Help? Please. I really need help
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Any other product in Quadrant IV will be negative also, so Quadrant IV is part of my answer. The points (x, y), with xy < 0, lie in Quadrants II and IV.

Need help with this question ​
Andreas93 [3]

The Domain is (-∞, -2) U (-2, 2) U (2, ∞) and Range is (-∞, -2) U [-1, ∞) and x-intercept = (-1.5, 0), (1.5, 0) and y-intercept = (0, -1).

<h3>What is a conic section?</h3>

It is defined as the curve which is the intersection of cone and plane. There are three major conic sections; parabola, hyperbola, and ellipse (circle is a special of type of ellipse).

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

From the graph:

a) The domain: all values of x

The range: all values of y

Except: Values at asymptotes are excluded.

Domain = (-∞, -2) U (-2, 2) U (2, ∞)

Range = (-∞, -2) U [-1, ∞)

b)

x-intercept = (-1.5, 0), (1.5, 0)

y-intercept = (0, -1)

c) Horiznotal asymptotes: y = -2

d)Vetical asymptotes: x = -2, x = 2

e) Oblique asymptotes: There is no oblique asymptotes

Thus, the Domain is (-∞, -2) U (-2, 2) U (2, ∞) and Range is (-∞, -2) U [-1, ∞) and x-intercept = (-1.5, 0), (1.5, 0) and y-intercept = (0, -1).
