const2013 [10]3 years ago

Answer:

\mathrm{C)\:}x=15,\:-7

Step-by-step explanation:

For |a-b|=c, there are two possible cases:

\begin{cases}a-b=c\\a-b=-c\\\end{cases}

Solving for both cases, we get:

\begin{cases}x-4+6=17, \:x+2=17, \: \fbox{$x=15$}\\-(x-4)+6=17,\: -x+10=17, \: -x=7, \:, \fbox{$x=-7$}\\\end{cases}

Function question<br><br>read the graph then solve
viktelen [127]

Answer:

  1. g(5x) = 0
  2. x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Do what your instructions say: read the graph and solve.

1. In order to find x, you look for the point where g(x) is 4. That point is found where x = -2. (See the first attachment.)

Then 5x = 5·(-2) = -10. To answer the question, you need to find the value of g(-10). Look where the graph crosses the vertical line at x=-10. It is at y=0, so ...

... g(5x) = g(-10) = 0

2. You already found the answer to this when looking for the answer to the first question. g(x) = 0 when x = -10. (See the second attachment.)

2. For the following, is the stated conclusion reasonable? Why or why not?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Definetely, it is reasonable. You may assume that a pet as a companionship will help the elderly feel more comfortable and therefore, happy. There are a few problems tough:

  • There is no practical way of meassuring 'happiness'.
  • Sometimes, the correlations of two factors may be a coincidence. Scientist should always consider this when they try to claim something byusing some backup logic, like we did.
  • Even tough the statement makes some sense, you need to be aware that maybe is not completly positively correlated. Maybe having 20 more pets does not make an elderly happy if it alredy had 1 or 2.
