Mathematics

Sedaia [141]3 years ago

Answer:

  • a = 2, b = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>To make the given piecewise function continuous we need:</u>

  • ax² - b = 6 and 5ax + b = 6 at x = 1

<u>It gives us the system:</u>

  • a(1²) - b = 6 ⇒ a - b = 6
  • 5a(1) + b = 6 ⇒ 5a + b = 6

<u>Sum of the two:</u>

  • a - b + 5a + b = 6 + 6
  • 6a = 12
  • a = 2

<u>Then b is:</u>

  • 2 - b = 6
  • b = -4

What is 3.8 repeating as a fraction in simplest form
Olin [163]
\bf 3.8888888\overline{8}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;x=3.8888888\overline{8}\qquad thus\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{llcll}&#10;10x&=&38.888888\overline{8}\\&#10;&&\downarrow \\&#10;&&35+3.8888888\overline{8}\\&#10;&&\downarrow \\&#10;&&35+x&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;10x=35+x\implies 9x=35\implies x=\cfrac{35}{9}

the idea being, you multiply the "x" by some power of 10 that moves the repeating part to the left of the decimal point and the split it like above.
