What is an irrational number that is between √17 and √19?

The table represents a linear function. find the values of a,b, and c. Show your work.

viva [34]

Answer:

The values of a , b , c are ⇒ a = 1 , b = 10 , c = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets describe the meaning of the linear function

- Linear function is represented by a line graphically

- The equation of the line is y = mx + c, where m is the slope

of the line and c is the y-intercept (the point of intersection

between the line and the y-axis is (0 , c))

- m = change of y/change of x

- We can find m from any two points on the line

* Lets use m to find a, b and c

- Use the points (3 , 8) and (5 , 9) to find m

∵ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∴ m = (9 - 8)/(5 - 3) = 1/2

- Find a by using points (a , 7) and (3 , 8) ⇒ (or (5 , 9))

∵ m = (8 - 7)/(3 - a) = 1/2

∴ 1/(3 - a) = 1/2 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ 3 - a = 2 ⇒ subtract 3 from both sides

∴ -a = -1 ⇒ × -1 both sides

∴ a = 1

- Find b by using points (5 , 9) and (7 , b) ⇒ (or (3 , 8))

∵ m = (b - 9)/(7 - 5) = (b - 9)/2

∴ (b - 9)/2 = 1/2 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ 2(b - 9) = 2 ⇒ open the bracket

∴ 2b - 18 = 2 ⇒ add 18 to both sides

∴ 2b = 20 ⇒ ÷ 2

∴ b = 10

- Find b by using points (5 , 9) and (c , 11) ⇒ (or (3 , 8))

∵ m = (11 - 9)/(c - 5) = 2/(c - 5)

∴ 2/(c - 5) = 1/2 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ c - 5 = 4 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ c = 9

* The values of a , b , c are ⇒ a = 1 , b = 10 , c = 9

Which of these statements is true for f(x)=(1/10)^x

lana66690 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Analyzing option A)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

Putting $x = 1$ in the function

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^1$

$f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

So, it is TRUE that when $x = 1$ then the out put will be $f\left(1\right)=\:\left\frac{1}{10}\right$

Therefore, the statement that '' The graph contains $\left(1,\:\frac{1}{10}\right)$ '' is TRUE.

Analyzing option B)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The range of the function is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.

$\mathrm{The\:range\:of\:an\:exponential\:function\:of\:the\:form}\:c\cdot \:n^{ax+b}+k\:\mathrm{is}\:\:f\left(x\right)>k$

$k=0$

$f\left(x\right)>0$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Range\:of\:}\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x:\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:f\left(x\right)>0\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(0,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}$

Therefore, the statement that ''The range of $f(x)$ is $y > \frac{1}{10}$ " is FALSE

Analyzing option C)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

The domain of the function is the set of input values which the function is real and defined.

As the function has no undefined points nor domain constraints.

So, the domain is $-\infty \:$

Thus,

$\mathrm{Domain\:of\:}\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x\::\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-\infty \:$

Therefore, the statement that ''The domain of $f(x)$ is $x>0$ '' is FALSE.

Analyzing option D)

Considering the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^x$

As the base of the exponential function is less then 1.

i.e. 0 < b < 1

Thus, the function is decreasing

Also check the graph of the function below, which shows that the function is decreasing.

Therefore, the statement '' It is always increasing '' is FALSE.

A house painter finds that he needs 20 minutes to set up his equipment before painting and then 5 minutes for every square foot

garri49 [273]

To answer this question you need to add 20 minutes to 5 times 800, which equals 4020, then you divide 4020 by 60 and your answer is 67!
