Answer: d. The domain would only include positive numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A function is created to represent the miles per gallon your car gets.

Here, the independent variable = the amount of fuel the car gets in gallons.

and the dependent variable = the total miles of car travel .

We know that the domain of a function is a set of all values of independent variable.

Thus, the domain would only include positive numbers because the quantity of fuel in a car is never negative and it can be in fraction .

Hence, D is the right answer.

Answer: D) t<span>he domain would only include positive numbers. 

Let's see the definitions of the given options:

1) <em>Integers</em> = positive and negative whole numbers, zero included;
2) <em>Positive integers</em> = positive whole numbers, also known as natural numbers;
3) <em>Real numbers</em> = positive and negative rational numbers, which means any fraction;
4) <em>Positive numbers</em> = any kind of number (whole, fraction or irrational) with the plus sign.

If we want to create a function that represents the miles per gallon, it would be a linear function which describes a direct proportion between the dependent variable (miles) and the independent variable (gallons).

The domain of this function will be the range of possible values for the independent variable (the gallons).

Gallons of gasoline are a real quantity, which can assume any value (whole = 2 gallons, rational = two-thirds of a gallon, irrational = 3.14 gallons), as long as they are positive (we cannot have -2 gallons).
 
Hence, the restriction to the domain of the function will be </span>D) t<span>he domain would only include positive numbers.</span>

The statement that is true about the function is D. it is discontinuous and non-differentiable at x = 3.

<h3>How to determine which statement is true?</h3>

To determine which statement is true, we need to know the conditions for continuity and differentiablity of a function.

<h3>Conditions for continuity and differentiablity of a function.</h3>
  • For a function f(x) to be continuous at a point x = a, then both the left hand limit of f(x) and the right hand limit of f(x) as x → a must be equal. That is \lim_{x \to a^{-} } f(x) =  \lim_{x \to a^{+} } f(x). So,  \lim_{x \to a^{} } f(x) must exist since  \lim_{x \to a^{-} } f(x) =  \lim_{x \to a^{+} } f(x) =  \lim_{x \to a^{} } f(x)
  • Also, for a function to be differentiable at a point x = a, it must also exist at x = a

So, since f(x) = {x² - 1 if -1 ≤ x ≤ 3 and x²/3 if 3 < x ≤ 8}

From the equality on the first condition,we see that f(x) is exists at x = 3 but is not continuous since f(x) changes to another function when x > 3. So,left hand limit of f(x) and the right hand limit of f(x) as x → 3 are not equal.

That is \lim_{x \to 3^{-} } f(x) \neq   \lim_{x \to 3^{+} } f(x) . Thus, the function is discontinuous at x = 3.

For differentiability, both conditions must be met. Since only one condition is met, it is non-differentiable.

So, the function is discontinuous and non-differentiable at x = 3.

So, the statement that is true about the function is D. it is discontinuous and non-differentiable at x = 3.

If you were filling the cylinder up with water using a cone that has the same height and diameter, how many cones will it take t
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It required 3 cones to fill up the cylinder with the same height and diameter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the cone and cylinder be r.

Let the height of the cone and cylinder be h.

As we know that  \text{Volume of cylinder}=\pi r^2h ....(1)

\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

It can be observed that the volume of a cone is \frac{1}{3}rd the volume of the cylinder. so, multiply the volume of the cone by 3.

3 \times \text{Volume of cone}=3 \times \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

3 \times \text{Volume of cone}= \pi r^2h

3 \times \text{Volume of cone}= \text{Volume of cylinder} (From equation 1 )

Hence, It required 3 cones to fill up the cylinder with the same height and diameter.

Which of the following statements is false?
ICE Princess25 [194]

The statement which is false among the answer choices as indicated in the task content is; Choice A; The parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.

<h3>Which of the statements indicated in the answer choice is correct?</h3>

It follows from the answer choice A that The parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.

However, it follows from the study of isosceles trapezoids that the base angles of such trapezoids are congruent and their measures are equal, consequently, the isosceles sides have equal length measures.

On this note, the other two sides are parallel but cannot be concluded as congruent.
