Answer:
g(-4) = -1
g(-1) = -1
g(1) = 3
Explanation:
If you are given a function that is defined by a system of equations associated with certain intervals of x, just find which interval makes x true, and then substitute x into the equation of that interval.
For example, given g(-4), this is an expression which is asking for the value of the equation when x = -4. So -4 is not ≥ 2, so ¼x - 1 will not be used. -4 is also not ≤ -1 and ≤ 2, so -(x - 1)² + 3 will not be used either. So in turn, we will just use -1 which is always -1 so g(-4) will just be -1, right because there is no x variable in -1 so it will always be the same.
Using the same idea as before g(-1) is g(x) when x = -1 so -1 will not be a solution because -1 is not less than -1 (< -1). -1 is not ≥ 2 either so we will be using the second equation because -1 is part of the interval -1≤x≤2 (it is a solution to this inequality), therefore -(x - 1)² + 3 will be used.
As x = -1, -(x - 1)² + 3 = -(-1 - 1)² + 3 = -(-2)² + 3 = -4 + 3 = -1.
It is a coincidence that g(-1) = -1.
Now for g(1), where g(x) has an input of 1 or the value of the function where x = 1, we will not use the first equation because x = 1 → x < -1 → 1 < -1 [this is false because 1 is never less than -1], so we will not use -1.
We will use -(x - 1)² + 3 again because 1 is not ≥ 2, 1≥2 [this is also false]. And -1 ≤ 1 < 2 [This is a true statement]. Therefore g(1) = -(1 - 1)² + 3 = -(0)² + 3 = 3
Answer:
n+4=32
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial number n gets additional 4 students making the new total number of students to be 32. Therefore, this situation can be represented as
n+4=32
To get the actual number of students before the additio, we make n the subject of formula hence
n=32-4
n=28
Therefore, the initial number was 28 and the equation is n+4=32
Since no choices were provided, the equation that can be modified is n+4=32
For this problem you can do it one of two ways. The first way would be simply take the square root because the area of a square is one side squared. The other way using the same rule would be to go up from a reasonable number and square it, if that is not the number you are looking for add 1 to the original number and square it again. if you cannot square and square root in your head, you should be allowed to use a calculator to get the answer or 17 as the length of a side.
I need help with this please if anyone can help that would be great.

Answer:
- 34.6574 years
- 34 years, 239.94 days
Step-by-step explanation:
For continuous compounding the "rule of 69" applies. That is the doubling time can be found from ...
t = 69.3147/r . . . . where r is the interest rate in percent.
Here, r=2, so ...
t = 69.3147/2 = 34.6574 . . . years
That's 34 years and 240 days.
