Erik and Nita are playing a game with numbers. In the game, they each think of a random number from zero to 20. If the differenc

e between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins. If the difference between their two numbers is greater than 10, then Nita wins. Use what you know about inequalities and absolute values to better understand the game.

Let X is the random number Erik thinks of, and Y is the random number Nita thinks of.
Both X and Y are in the range from 0 to 20.
<span>X<=20
Y<=20
If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins.
The difference between the two numbers can be written X-Y, or Y-X depending on which number (X or Y) is greater. But we do not know that. In order not to get negative value, we calculate absolute value of X-Y,  written |X-Y| which will give positive value whether X is greater than Y or not.
If |X-Y|<10 Erik wins.

Linear equation is equation in which each term has at max one degree. The function that can represent the given graph is y=2.0769x + 1.5.

<h3>What is linear equation?</h3>

Linear equation is equation in which each term has at max one degree. Linear equation in variable x and y can be written in the form y = mx + c

Linear equation with two variables, when graphed on Cartesian plane with axes of those variables, give a straight line.

For the given graph the equation can be written as, y = mx+c, this is because the graph is a line which means the relationship is linear. Therefore, the equation can be written as,

y = mx + c

Now, there are two points that are on the line and the coordinates of this points are,

A = (4, 9.5)

B = (7.25, 16)

Further the slope of the equation is,

m = (16-9.5) / (7.25 - 4) = 2.0769

Since c is the y-intercept of the graph, therefore, the value of c is 1.5.

Thus, the function that can represent the given graph is y=2.0769x + 1.5.

Please help I need to know the rule in correspondence to the pattern?
trasher [3.6K]

You can see that an odd number of steps is simply multiplying the number of steps by a number that moves up one each time. For instance, 1*1, 3*2, 5*3, etc. It's a bit harder with the even numbers. Their pattern is multiplying half the number of steps by 1.5, but the ones place value moves up a number each time, for example, 2*1.5, 4*2.5, 6*3.5. This means that 10 steps is 10 * 5.5, or 55 blocks and that 100 is 5,050 steps.

What is the domain of the function y = 3 l n x graphed below? On a coordinate plane, a curve starts in quadrant 4 and then incre
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

<h2>X greater-than 0</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=3ln(x)

Which is a logarithm function. An important characteristic of logarithms is that their domain cannot be negatice, because the logarithm of a negative number is undefined, the same happens for x=0.

Therefore, the domain of this function is all real numbers more than zero.

The image attached shows the graph of this function, there you can notice its domain restriction.

So, the right answer is the first choice: x greater than 0.
