A and E. All you need to do is just count the rise in the run, which is the vertical and horizontal parts of the triangle. A is 10/4 so you just simplify that to 5/2 and E is directly 5/2

Find the range of the following piecewise function.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

None of the Above

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is [2, ∞) excluding (2, 7) and [11, 16). No part of the piecewise function will give f(x) = 5, for example.

In your own words, explain the problem of correlation vs. causation. Why are causation and correlation very different?

leonid [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation means that two or more events happen together. They are related to one another by being caused by the same thing.

Causation has a definite order. The first event has some cause that is comes before the second event. One event caused the other.

Find all the zeros of the equation x^4-6x^2-7x-6=0

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The zeros are

$x=-2,\:x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=-\frac{1}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation x^4-6x^2-7x-6=0

Use rational root theorem, we have

$a_0=6,\:\quad a_n=1$

$\mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_0:\quad 1,\:2,\:3,\:6,\:\quad \mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_n:\quad 1$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:2,\:3,\:6}{1}$

$-\frac{2}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+2$

$=\left(x+2\right)\frac{x^4-6x^2-7x-6}{x+2}\\$

$=x^3-2x^2-2x-3$

Again factor using the rational root test, we get

$=\left(x+2\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)$

Using the zero product rule, we have

$x+2=0:\quad x=-2\\x-3=0:\quad x=3\\x^2+x+1=0\\\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:1}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\\=-\frac{1}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=-\frac{1}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$
