Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of a non-linear equation is that of a quadratic function

We can have this as;

y = x^2 + 3x + 3

Why is it non-linear?

Generally, we have the equation of a linear model as;

y = mx + b

where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept

The written quadratic equation can not be written in this form

Hence, we know by this that it is not a linear equation

When Kimchi is made, it is initially fermented for the first 3 days at a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit and then immediate

svet-max [94.6K]

The given temperatures of 70 °F, 50 °F, and 35 °F, at the given 3, 3, and

6 days give the following step function;

$\begin{cases}f(x) = 70^{\circ } & \text{ if } 0 \leq x \leq 3 \\f(x) = 50^{\circ} & \text{ if } 3 < x \leq 6 \\ f(x) = 35^{\circ }& \text{ if } 6 < x \leq 12 \end{cases}$

Please find attached the graph of the step function?

<h3>How can the step function be written?</h3>

The temperature at it is fermented in the first three days = 70 °F

From day 3 to 6 the temperature = 50 °F

From day 6 to day 12, the temperature at which it is kept in the freezer = 35 °F

The step function is therefore;

$\begin{cases}f(x) = 70^{\circ } & \text{ if } 0 \leq x \leq 3 \\f(x) = 50^{\circ} & \text{ if } 3 < x \leq 6 \\ f(x) = 35^{\circ }& \text{ if } 6 < x \leq 12 \end{cases}$

The graph of the above function created with MS Excel is attached
