Evaluating Piecewise Functions: Please explain your answer. Thank you.

Answer:

f(-1) is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f(x) = \left\{        \begin{array}{ll}            -3x-11 & \quad x \leq -5\\            2 & \quad x > 5        \end{array}    \right.

And we want to find f(-1).

The piecewise function only gives us values for <em>x-</em>values less than or equal to -5 or greater than 5.

Since -1 is fits neither of those conditions, it is not defined.

Our answer is undefined.

write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-4,4) and (6,9) and figure out what y=mx+b for this equation woul
jeka57 [31]
Hello there! So, y = mx + b is in slope-intercept form, where m represents the slope, b represents the y-intercept, and y and x remain unfilled. First off, let's solve for the slope. The formula for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1, where you subtract the first x and y coordinates from the second x and y coordinates. So it would be formed like this:

9 - 4 / 6 - (-4)

Let's subtract. 9 - 4 is 5. 6 - (-4) is 10. 5/10 is 1/2 in simplest form. The slope for this equation is 1/2. Now, let's find the y-intercept. We will find that by plugging one of the points into the equation and solving for b. The x and y coordinates will be filled in by that coordinate. Let's use (-4, 4) for this problem. We will also plug in the slope. In this case, the problem will look like this:

4 = (1/2)(-4) + b

Now, let's multiply 1/2 and -4 to get -2. Now, to get b by itself, subtract 2 to both sides to isolate the b. -2 + 2 cancels out. 4 + 2 is 6. b = 6. There. The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = 1/2x + 6.

Find the value of x (picture provided)
Ivan

Answer:

x = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles identified are alternate exterior angles.  Since the lines are parallel, alternate exterior angles are equal.

2x+15 = 3x-38

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x+15 = 3x-2x-38

15 = x-38

Add 38 to each side

15+38 = x-38+38

53 = x

What scale factor was applied to the first rectangle to get the resulting image?
madam [21]

Answer:

The scale factor for the resultant rectangle is\frac{2}{5} units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two rectangles with sides 3 units and 7.5 units.

We have to find the scaling factors so that we can obtain bigger rectangle of 7.5 units from smaller rectangle of 3 units.

Scale factor is defined as the ratio  of corresponding side of given figure to the corresponding side of resulting figure.

That is \text{Scale factor}=\frac{\text{length of side of given figure}}{\text{length of side of resulting figure}}

Here, \text{Scale factor}=\frac{\text{length of side of given rectangle }}{\text{length of side of resulting rectangle}}

\text{Scale factor}=\frac{3}{7.5}=\frac{2}{5}

Hence, the scale factor for the resultant rectangle is\frac{2}{5} units.
