Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The phrase "at least" indicates that you use the symbol ≥, so that's where they got the ≥ from. The amount of water needed for each bushel is 1/3 * f or 1/3f because you need 1/3 gallons of water per one bushel. We know that the amount of water needed is at least 1/3 gallons per bushel. Since the amount of water is w, "at least" is ≥ and 1/3 gallons per bushel is 1/3f, the inequality is w ≥ 1/3f. I hope this makes sense.

Find f(-2) for the function:<br><br> f(x)= 3x^2-1, x&lt;1<br> x+2, x&gt; 1
azamat
F(x) = 3x² - 1
f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 1
f(-2) = 3(4) - 1
f(-2) = 12 - 1
f(-2) = 11

f(x) = x < 1
f(-2) = -2 < 1

f(x) = x + 2
f(-2) = -2 + 2
f(-2) = 0

f(x) = x > 1
f(-2) = -2 > 1
f(-2) = -2 < 1

A partir del 1.° de diciembre, un camión de helados visita la calle de Sara cada 3 días y la calle de Ema cada 5 días. ¿Cuáles s
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Los primeros 2 días que el camión visita ambas calles el mismo día es el 15 y 30 de diciembre.

Step-by-step explanation:

Los múltiplos de un número son todos los posibles resultados de multiplicar ese número por todos y cada uno de los números naturales.

Es decir, los múltiplos de un número natural son los números naturales que resultan de multiplicar ese número por otros números naturales.

El conjunto de los múltiplos de un número determinado (salvo el cero) es infinito, pues existen infinitos naturales para multiplicar.

Para determinar cuáles son los primeros 2 días que el camión visita ambas calles el mismo día, debes encontrar los múltiplos de 3 y 5:

múltiplos de 3: 3; 6; 9; 12; 15; 18; 21; 24; 27; 30

múltiplos de 5: 5; 10; 15; 20; 25; 30; 35; 40; 45; 50

Podes observar que los 2 primeros números comunes o que coinciden entre los múltiplos de 3 y 5 son 15 y 30. Esto quiere decir que <u><em>los primeros 2 días que el camión visita ambas calles el mismo día es el 15 y 30 de diciembre.</em></u>
