Answer:

the function has no finite limit at the left end of the interval (5, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the function to be piecewise continuous, it must have finite limits at the endpoints of each of the subintervals. Here, the function goes to infinity as x → 5+, so has no finite limit there.

Suppose task B follows task A. The likelihood that a problem will occur with task A is 0.5, and the time to correct the problem

jasenka [17]

Answer:

The risk consequence of both activities is 1.6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define a randome variable D: total delay time for the project, and calculate its expected value.

This would be the risk consequence of both activities.

The expected delay time for the project is the sum of the expected delay for task A plus the expected delay for task B. It is assumed the likelihood of a problem in any task is independent of the other.

Then, each expected delay for a task is equal to the probability of a problem multiplied by the consequence (delay time).

$E(D)=E(D_a)+E(D_b)=p_aT_a+p_bT_b\\\\E(D)=0.5*2+0.2*3=1+0.6=1.6$

The risk consequence of both activities is 1.6 months.

The temperature at sunrise was -3*F. By noon, the temperature climbed 18 degrees. By sundown the temperature was -14*F. How much

Natalija [7]

Answer:

32*F

Step-by-step explanation:

* = degrees

Started at -3*F

By noon, the temperature climbed 18* = +18*

By sundown the temperature was -14*F

What we want to know: How much did the temperature drop between noon and sundown?

This is actually really easy!

What was the temperature at noon? --> 18*F

What was the temperature at sundown? --> -14*F

So what is the difference between 18* and -14*? We can't use an equation, so we will solve manually.

The distance from -14 to 0 is 14 degrees. Keep that in mind.

The distance from 18 to 0 is 18 degrees. Keep that in mind.

So what is 14 + 18? 14 + 18 = 32*.

So, the temperature dropped 32*F between noon and sundown.

I hope this helps! I know this was a little messy, but that is because we couldn't use an equation/expression to solve this.
