Let f(x) = |x| / x , where x can be any real number except 0.

Answer: Hello there!

we have the function f(x) = IxI/x

Then this function can be piecewise writen as:

f(x) = 1 if x > 0

f(x) = -1 if x < 0

because:

suposse that n is a number greater than 0, then:

f(n) = InI/n = n/n = 1

and this is independent of the number n, so for all the positive values of x, we have f(x) = 1

and

f(-n) = I-nI/(-n) = n/(-n) = -1

and again, this does not depend on the value of n, so for all the negative values of x, we have f(x) = -1.

On the other hand, the Heaviside function is defined as:

H(x) = 1 if x>0

H(x) = 0 if x<0

Then the difference is that, when the Heaviside function takes the value of 0 for negative values of x, our function f(x) takes the value of -1 for negative values of x.

Complete the pattern<br> 5,10,30,60,180,__
nalin [4]

Hi!

If the pattern starts off with 5 going to 10, then that would be multiplying by 2. Then, from 10 to 30 would be multiplying by 3. From 30 to 60 would be 2, and 60 to 180 would be 3. So, the pattern is multiply by 2, then multiply by 3, then by 2, then by 3, and so on. So, if we multiply 180 by 2, we get 360, the answer.

Hope this helps!

e vertices of a rectangle are R(-5,-5), S(-6,-5),T(-1,1),U(-5,1) a translation maps R to the point (2,-9)
Tema [17]

Answer:

The rule of translation : (x,y)\rightarrow (x+7,y-4)

The vertices of image is R'(2,-9), S'(1,-9), T'(6,-3) and U'(2,-3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of a rectangle are R(-5,-5), S(-6,-5), T(-1,1), U(-5,1).

It is given that a translation maps R to the point (2,-9).

Difference between x-coordinates:

-5-2=-7

Difference between y-coordinates:

-5-(-9)=-5+9=4

The x-coordinate increased by 7 and y-coordinate decreased by 4. It means the figure shifts 7 units right and 4 units down.

The rule of translation is

(x,y)\rightarrow (x+7,y-4)

The vertices of image are

R(-5,-5)\rightarrow R'(-5+7,-5-4)=R'(2,-9)

S(-6,-5)\rightarrow S'(-6+7,-5-4)=S'(1,-9)

T(-1,1)\rightarrow T'(-1+7,1-4)=T'(6,-3)

U(-5,1)\rightarrow U'(-5+7,1-4)=U'(2,-3)

Therefore, the vertices of image are R'(2,-9), S'(1,-9), T'(6,-3) and U'(2,-3).
