I got 75582.

Explanation:

First, group the 40 identical candies into 20 pairs. It doesn't matter how since the candies are identical. This grouping will ensure that any assigment will contain at least two candies.

Then think of the 20 groups a 20 beads on a string. We are looking to place 11 separators between them to obtain 12 segments, each with a varying number of beads between them. How many ways are there to place 11 separators to 19 potential spaces between beads? The asnwer is n = {19\choose{11}}=75582

Find f(-5) and f(12) for each piecewise function f(x){-4x+3 if x<3
Law Incorporation [45]
<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • f(-5) = 23
  • f(12) = 433

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

Explanation:

The given piecewise function is

f(x) = \begin{cases}-4x+3 \ \text{ if } \ x < 3\\-x^3 \ \text{ if } \ 3 \le x \le 8\\3x^2+1 \ \text{ if } \ x > 8\end{cases}

At first piecewise functions may be strange confusing things, but they aren't so bad. I like to think of it like this: f(x) is a function that changes its identity based on what the input x is. We have three situations

  • f(x) = -4x+3 when x < 3
  • f(x) = -x^3 when 3 \le x \le 8
  • f(x) = 3x^2+1 when x > 8

In a sense, we have three different functions but they are combined somehow.

If x is smaller than 3, then we go for the first definition. Or if x is between 3 and 8, then we go for the second definition. Or if x is larger than 8, then we go for the third definition.

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

f(-5) means f(x) when x = -5. We see that -5 is smaller than 3, so x = -5 makes x < 3 true. We'll use the first definition

f(x) = -4x+3

f(-5) = -4(-5)+3

f(-5) = 20+3

f(-5) = 23

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

Now the input is x = 12. This is larger than 8. In other words, x = 12 makes x > 8 true. We'll use the third definition

f(x) = 3x^2+1

f(12) = 3(12)^2+1

f(12) = 3(144)+1

f(12) = 432+1

f(12) = 433

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

Side notes:

  • We won't use the second definition since we don't have any x inputs between 3 and 8
  • To say "less than or equal to" on a keyboard, you can write "<=" without quotes. For example, x \le 5 is the same as x<=5
