Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>To make the given piecewise function continuous we need:</u>
- ax² - b = 6 and 5ax + b = 6 at x = 1
<u>It gives us the system:</u>
- a(1²) - b = 6 ⇒ a - b = 6
- 5a(1) + b = 6 ⇒ 5a + b = 6
<u>Sum of the two:</u>
- a - b + 5a + b = 6 + 6
- 6a = 12
- a = 2
<u>Then b is:</u>
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Two figures<span> that have the same shape are said to be </span>similar<span>. When two </span>figures<span> are </span>similar<span>, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We calculate as follows:
3.9 / 1.3 = 9.6 / b
b = 9.6 x 1.3 / 3.9
b = 3.2</span>
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtracting v - q, will be subtracting the atmosphere to the sun - surface to the sun.
The answer will be negative distance of the atmosphere.
However, we cant really have a 'negative' atmosphere, this is where the |absolute value| signs make this problem correct.
