Answer:
Any real number strictly larger than 9 and strictly less than 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
By triangle inequality, the sum of the lengths of any two sides are greater than the length of the third side.
We therefore could set up three inequalities.
x+6>15, x+15>6, 15+6>x
Solving these, we get x>9, x>-9, x<21 i.e. 9 < x < 21.
Answer:
Jerry Adams normally pays $875 for bodily injury and property damage insurance. His insurance company increases premiums by 150% for 1 accident, 200% for 2-3 accidents, and 250% for 4 accidents. Find ... If the probability that he will live through the year is 0.9989, what is the expected value for the insurance policy?
Answer: -3
Explanation: In this problem, we're given the function f(x) = 2x + 1 and we're asked to find f(-2).
To find f(-2) or the value of the function or the value of the function when <em>x = -2</em>, we simply substitute -2 in for <em>x</em> in our function.
So we have f(-2) = 2(-2) + 1 or -4 + 1 which equals -3.
So f(-2) or the value of the function when x = -3 is -3.
