Question 5 and 6 please help me

Problem 5

The function is continuous for the given domain x \ge 6

This is because y = (-5/6)x+5 is itself continuous, and any interval subset of this function is also continuous. We can plug in any real number that is equal to 6 or larger, and get some y output. If we plugged in x = 6, then we'd get

y = (-5/6)x+5

y = (-5/6)*6 + 5

y = -5+5

y = 0

This is the largest y value possible. Why? Because y = (-5/6)x+5 has a negative slope, so the graph is going downhill as you read it from left to right. As x gets bigger, y gets smaller. The smallest x value allowed in the domain produces the largest y value in the range. There is no smallest y value as the y values keep going down forever.

The range is therefore y \le 0

In interval notation, you can write the range as (-\infty, 0]. The square bracket indicates "include this endpoint as part of the range".

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

Problem 6

The function is discrete for this given domain. The domain itself is a discrete list of values. We cannot plug in values between say 0 and 2. We can only substitute one of those values from the list given. Consequently, the y values will also be a list, and not an interval like problem 5 had.

-----------

If you plugged in x = -4, then you should get...

y = (-1/2)*(-4)+2

y = 2+2

y = 4

So the input x = -4 lead the output y = 4

Repeat for x = -2

y = (-1/2)x+2

y = (-1/2)*(-2)+2

y = 1+2

y = 3

and the same for x = 0 as well

y = (-1/2)x+2

y = (-1/2)*0 + 2

y = 0 + 2

y = 2

and x = 2 also

y = (-1/2)x+2

y = (-1/2)*2 + 2

y = -1+2

y = 1

Finally, plug in x = 4

y = (-1/2)x+2

y = (-1/2)*4+2

y = -2+2

y = 0

---------------

If we plugged each of these x values {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4} one at a time into the equation y = (-1/2)x+2, then we get this list of values {4, 3, 2, 1, 0}

Sorting the values from smallest to largest, we have this range {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

If the ratio of the length of a rectangle to its width is 9/4 and its length is 18 cm, what is the width of the rectangle?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The width is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

if the ratio of length to width is 9 to 4. and we know the length is 18, 18 is 2 times as much as 9, so 4*2=8.                   9*2=18,4*2=8

A candy maker buys a bar of chocolate weighing 162 oz. About how many lb does the bar weigh?
Natali [406]
Use dimensional analysis. 1 lb = 16 oz will be the conversion factor. 162 oz x (1 lb/16 oz) = 10.125 lb.
