Answer:

  C

Step-by-step explanation:

The step shown indicates that y was eliminated from the equations. For choices A, B, D, this is done by adding the equations together (the y-coefficients are opposites). The result of doing that gives x-terms of 4x, 0x, and 0x, respectively. These x-terms do not match the one given: 2x.

For choice C, the y-term is eliminated by subtracting twice the second equation from the first. Doing that gives ...

  (4x +2y) -2(x +y) = (14) -2(3)

  4x +2y -2x -2y = 14 -6 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

How many discontinuities does the piecewise function have.?
Aleks04 [339]

In piecewise linear functions, the endpoint of one segment and the initial point of the next segment can have the same x-coordinate but a different value of f(x).

Such difference in values is called a step or discontinuity and such a function is called a discontinuous function.

Here in this case, there are 3 discontinuities: x=-3, x=3 and x = 5.

x = -3 because x is smaller than or greater than -3 but not equal.

x = 3 since greater than 3 in one of the inequalities.

x = 5 since x is smaller than 5 in one of the limits.

(If A(2, -3), B(3,-2) and point C divides the line segment AB in the ratio of 1: 2, find OC.)​
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

A(2, -3) and B(3, -2), o(0, 0) Let C(x, y)

Here c divide AB line in the ratio of 1:2

From the line intersection law, we get x=(m1×x2+m2×x1)/(m1+m2)

and y=(m1×y2+m2×y1)/(m1+m2)

where m1=1, m2=2, x1=2, x2=3, y1=-3, y2=-2;

so x=(3+4)/3

  or, x=7/3;

y=(-2-6)/3

 or, y=-8/3;

so, oc=√((0-7/3)²+(0-(-8/3))²)

oc=3.54
