Start with

Observe that this implies that the domain is

The least common denominator is

In the right hand side, we have

So, the equation becomes

Multiply both sides by 3:

This equation has solutions

Which are compliant with the domain of the equation
Answer: -$0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
event Probability
+ $2 1/6
+ $4 1/6
+ $6 1/6
- $5 3/6
E(X) = (2*1/6)+(4*1/6)+(6*1/6)+(-5*3/6) = -$0.5
Answer:
a) The basic rate of pay is 6 sterling pounds per hour.
b) The higher rate of pay is 10 sterling pounds per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Both segments of the curve are first order polynomials, which means that each have constant slopes.
a) The basic rate of pay is the value of the slope (
), in sterling pounds per hour, of the line for the first 20 hours worked, that is:
(1)
Where:
- Change in hours worked, in hours.
- Change in pay, in sterling pounds.
If we know that
and
, then the basic rate is:



The basic rate of pay is 6 sterling pounds per hour.
b) By using (1), we calculate the higher rate of pay below. If we know that
and
, then the higher rate is:



The higher rate of pay is 10 sterling pounds per hour.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
My interpretation of f(x) is f(x) = (1/6x) + 2
Domain = {Real Numbers} - {0}
Range = {Real Numbers}
Discussion:
Domain of f = all x where f(x) is defined. For f(x) the only singularity occurs at x = 0 so the domain is the set of all real numbers except for 0. For x>0, x values close to 0 cause y to grow large while large x causes y to approach 0. A similar argument for x <0 shows that the range of f is all real numbers.
Thank you,
MrB
