9514 1404 393

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of wins. Then the number of losses is w-18. The total number of games played is ...

wins + losses = 40

w + (w-18) = 40

2w = 58

w = 29

The Rangers won 29 games.

Suppose x is a real number and epsilon > 0. Prove that (x - epsilon, x epsilon) is a neighborhood of each of its members; in

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use properties of inequalities during the proof.

Let $y\in (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon)$ . then we have that $x-\epsilon$ . Hence, it makes sense to define the positive number delta as $\delta=\min\{x+\epsilon-y,y-(x-\epsilon)\}$ (the inequality guarantees that these numbers are positive).

Intuitively, delta is the shortest distance from y to the endpoints of the interval. Now, we claim that $(y-\delta,y+\delta)\subseteq (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon)$ , and if we prove this, we are done. To prove it, let $z\in (y-\delta,y+\delta)$ , then $y-\delta$ . First, $\delta \leq y-(x-\epsilon)$ then $-\delta \geq -y+x-\epsilon$ hence $z>y-\delta \geq x-\epsilon$

On the other hand, $\delta \leq x+\epsilon-y$ then $z$ hence $z$ . Combining the inequalities, we have that $x-\epsilon$ , therefore $(y-\delta,y+\delta)\subseteq (x-\epsilon,x+\epsilon)$ as required.

What is 17x^2=12x in general quadratic form

ZanzabumX [31]

<span>Simplifying 17x2 + -12x = 0 Reorder the terms: -12x + 17x2 = 0 Solving -12x + 17x2 = 0 Solving for variable 'x'. Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'. x(-12 + 17x) = 0 </span>
