1. For x<3, h(x)=x+2
now x+2 is an increasing line (a practical way to check, h(1)=3, h(2)=4)
the largest value it takes is at 3, not inclusive, so h(3)=5 not inclusive.
Range_1= (-∞, 5)
2. for x> or equal to 3, h(x)=-x+8, which is a decreasing line (check h(4)=4, h(5)=3 )
so this line takes its maximal value at x=3, f(3)=5 and then takes any other value to -∞.
Range_2=(-∞,5]
3. Range(h)=Range1∪Range2=(-∞, 5)∪(-∞,5]=(-∞,5] (B)
The answer is C) 63 degrees
I am almost positive that the answer could be 8 feet below sea level
Answer: option d. the argument is valid by the law of detachment.
The law of detachment consists in make a conlcusion in this way:
Premise 1) a => b
Premise 2) a is true
Conclusion: Then, b is true
Note: the order of the premises 1 and 2 does not modifiy the argument.
IN this case:
Premise 1) angle > 90 => obtuse
Premise 2) angle = 102 [i.e. it is true that angle > 90]]
Conclusion: it is true that angle is obtuse
