The range of the function y=secx-2 is all reals except -1 1 -3 -2

Answer:

For a function y = f(x), the range is the set of all the possible values of y.

In the question you wrote:

y = secx - 2

This can be interpreted as:

y = sec(x - 2)

or

y = sec(x) - 2

So let's see each case (these are kinda the same)

If the function is:

y = sec(x - 2)

Firs remember that:

sec(x) = 1/cos(x)

then we can rewrite:

y = 1/cos(x - 2)

notice that the function cos(x) has the range -1 ≤ y ≤ 1

Then for the two extremes we have:

y = 1/1 = 1

y = 1/-1 = -1

Notice that for:

y = 1/cos(x - 2)

y can never be in the range  -1 < x < 1

As the denominator cant be larger, in absolute value, than 1.

Then we can conclude that the range is all reals except the interval:

-1 < y < 1

If instead the function was:

y = sec(x) - 2

y = 1/cos(x) - 2

Then with the same reasoning, the range will be the set of all real values except:

-1 - 2 < y < 1 - 2

-3 < y < -1

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Lowest is 100

Highest is 125

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the 5 number summary to be the foundation of a graphical representation referred to as the box plot. One box would move from one quartile which is the lowest quartile Q1 to the another quartile Q3 which is the upper quartile.

Now if a box plot is to be made given the the information in this question, the box is going to go from Quartile 1 to Quartile 3.

Then the Lowest value would be 100 and the highest 125

The model represents an equation.
madreJ [45]

Answer:

9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

solve the original equation for x

-4× + 3 = 1x +(-6)

-1x

-5x + 3 = -6

-3

-5x = -9

/-5

x = 9/5

CHECK

-4(9/5) + 3 = 1(9/5) +(-6)

-21/5 = -21/5

(MUST SHOW WORKING)
myrzilka [38]
First of all, keep in mind :
m --> cm = times by 100
cm --> mm = times by 10
mm --> cm = divide by 10
cm --> m = divide by 100

so we know that a square has 4 equal sides and to find the area of a square we do base*height. now these two numbers on the base and height are the same so we're basically squaring them to get the area of 81. therefore, we do the reverse so square root 81 and we get the answer 9cm

now let's convert 9cm to mm
= 9*10 = 90
area in mm = 90mm

now let's convert 9cm to meters
= 9/100=0.09
area in m = 0.09m

and finally, we already worked out the area in cm
= 9cm

hope this helped :)

One-Half the difference of a number and 15
slega [8]

Answer:

x - 15 ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it wants you to find the half of your answer after you find the difference, be sure to leave the two at the end of your equation. With that said, let's move into finding out what "the difference of a number and fifteen is". Whenever they tell you 'a number', it means they want you to put a variable, such as x, since you do not know the number and it could be any number. Now, the "difference" of something usually means...you guessed it, subtraction! Now that you've decoded your equation, you now know it means that x - 15 is the first part, and you can now put the one half right after it.

If this is confusing, I can explain further. :D
