Evaluate when f(-3) and f(7)

Mathematics
1 answer:
pogonyaev3 years ago
3 0

Answers:

  • f(-3) = -6
  • f(7) = 20

======================================================

Explanation:

The piecewise function f(x) changes based on what the input is.

We have two cases:

  • Case A) if x > 4, then f(x) = 3x-1
  • Case B) If x \le 4, then f(x) = 2x

The input x = -3 satisfies the inequality x \le 4, so we go with case B for this input

f(x) = 2x

f(-3) = 2(-3)

f(-3) = -6

In contrast, the input x = 7 satisfies the inequality x > 4. So we go for case A this time.

f(x) = 3x-1

f(7) = 3(7)-1

f(7) = 21-1

f(7) = 20

----------------------

Side note: It might be better to let g(x) = 3x-1 and h(x) = 2x. Then we could further say "If x > 4, then f(x) = g(x) OR if x \le 4, then f(x) = h(x)". Though this might be a more wordy definition.

Round 15.6895 to the nearest tenth.
ehidna [41]

Answer:

15.7

Step-by-step explanation:

'6' is in the tenths place in 15.6895.  The digit following this '6' is '8,' which requires rounding up this '6' to '7.'

Thus, to the nearest tenth, we get 15.7.

X + 2y = 5 3x + 5y = 14 Solve the system of equations. (3, 1) (7, -1) (2, 3/2)
aniked [119]

Answer:

The solution is (3 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of the equation you can use the elimination method or substitution method.

We will use the substitution method

From the first equation x + 2y = 5⇒get  x = 5 - 2y

In the second equation 3x + 5y = 14⇒we will substitute x by 5 - 2y

3(5 - 2y) + 5y =14

15 - 6y + 5y = 14

-6y + 5y = 14 - 15

-y = -1

y = 1

Substitute the value of y in x = 5 - 2y

x = 5 - 2(1) = 5 -2 =3

∴ The solution of the system of equations is (3 , 1)

Find the value of x 7x+2=16<br>pls explain​
miskamm [114]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7x + 2 = 16

Subtracting 2 from both sides

7x + 2 - 2 = 16 - 2

7x = 14

Dividing both sides by 7

7x / 7 = 14 /7

x = 2

Hope it will help :)

Find the values of the variables, giving brief reasons for your answers.
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the parallel lines (marked by those arrows) we know that the corner angles are the same:

110 - x = x so

110 = 2x

55 = x
