If f(x) is discontinuous, determine the reason. f(x)= {x^2 +4, x<=1; x+3, x>1}

tester [92]3 years ago

Answer:

Observe that f(x) is a continuous function when x1 because is a polynomial. The possible problem may occur in x=1.

Then, f(x) is discontinuous in x=1 if the limits of f to the right and the left of 1 exist and are different or if some of those limits doesn't exist.

Let's calculate the limits:

lim_{x\rightarrow 1^+}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow 1}(x+3)=1+3=4

lim_{x\rightarrow 1^-}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow 1^-}(x^2+4)=1^2+4=5

Since, lim_{x\rightarrow 1^-}\neq lim_{x\rightarrow 1^+} then f(x) is discontinuous in x=1.

-1 3/5 divided by (-2/3) write as mixed number
hichkok12 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

- 1  \frac{3}{5}  \div  \frac{ - 2}{3}

Convert the mixed numbers above to improper fractions. Thus:

\frac{ - 8}{5}  \div   \frac{ - 2}{3}

In order to simplify the fractions above, the division sign changes to multiplication sign thus turn the right hand side of the fraction inversely such that -2/3 to -3/2. Hence,

\frac{ - 8}{5}  \times  \frac{ - 3}{2}

\frac{ - 8 \times  - 3}{5 \times 2}

=  \frac{24}{10}

= 2  \frac{4}{10}

= 2  \frac{2}{5}

What is the maximum value of h(t)=−16t^2+32t+64
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t)=-16t²+32t+64

=-16(t²-2t)+64

=-16(t²-2t+1-1)+64

=-16(t-1)²+16+64

=-16(t-1)²+80

maximum value=80 and is obtained at t=1

A rectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left. Which rule describes the translation?
vladimir2022 [97]
Any time you move up or down, it affects the y coordinate and going up is positive so 5 units up is y + 5.
Moving left or right affects the x coordinate and moving left is negative so x - 3

(x - 3, y + 5)

So the answer is Option C).
