On any given day, the number of users, u, that access a certain website can be represented by the inequality 125-4530
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inequality is |125-u| ≤ 30. Let's separate this into two. Assuming that (125-u) is positive, we have 125-u ≤ 30, and if we assume that it's negative, we'd have -(125-u)≤30, or u-125≤30.

Therefore, we now have two inequalities to solve for:

125-u ≤ 30

u-125≤30

For the first one, we can subtract 125 and add u to both sides, resulting in

0 ≤ u-95, or 95≤u. Therefore, that is our first inequality.

The second one can be figured out by adding 125 to both sides, so u ≤ 155.

Remember that we took these two inequalities from an absolute value -- as a result, they BOTH must be true in order for the original inequality to be true. Therefore,

u ≥ 95

and

u ≤ 155

combine to be

95 ≤ u ≤ 155, or the 4th option

Find the x and y intercepts of the quadratic equation<br> f(x)=-x^2+4x-4
earnstyle [38]
<u>X - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
   0 = -x² + 4x - 4
   x = <u>-(4) +/- √((4)² - 4(-1)(-4))</u>
                         2(-1)
   x = <u>-4 +/- √(16 - 16)</u>
                    -2
   x = <u>-4 +/- √(0)
</u>               -2<u>
</u>   x = <u>-4 +/- 0
</u>              -2<u>
</u>   x = <u>-4 + 0</u>      x = <u>-4 - 0</u>  
            -2                 -2
   x = <u>-4</u>             x = <u>-4</u>
         -2                   -2
   x = 2               x = 2

The solution to the problem is {2, 2}, or {2}. The x - intercept of the problem is (2, 0).

<u>Y - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
f(x) = -(0)² + 4(0) - 4
f(x) = -(0) + 0 - 4
f(x) = -0 + 0 - 4
f(x) = 0 - 4
f(x) = -4

The y - intercept of the problem is (0, -4).
