Answer:

From top to bottom:

0, 1, 2, -8, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the piecewise function:

g(x) = \left\{        \begin{array}{ll}            0.5x+1 & \text{if } x \leq 2 \\            -8 & \text{if } x > 2        \end{array}    \right.

Row 1:

We want to find g(-2).

Since -2 is less than (or equal to) 2, we will use the first equation. Thus:

g(-2)=0.5(-2)+1=-1+1=0

Row 2:

Likewise, 0 is less than or equal to 2. We will continue to use the first equation:

g(0)=0.5(0)+1=1

Row 3:

2 is not less than 2 but it is equal to 2. So we will continue to use the first equation:

g(2)=0.5(2)+1=1+1=2

Row 4 and 5:

Both 4 and 6 are greater than 2. Thus, we will use the second equation. Therefore:

g(4)=-8\text{ and } g(6)=-8

The point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through points (8,4) and (0, 2) is y-
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

While the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})

Where:

m: It's the slope

(x_ {0}, y_ {0}):It is a point through which the line passes

In this case we have a line through:

(8,4) and (0,2)

Therefore, its slope is:

m = \frac {2-4} {0-8} = \frac {-2} {- 8} = \frac {1} {4}

Its point-slope equation is:

y-4 = \frac {1} {4} (x-8)

Then, we manipulate the expression to find the equation of the slope-intersection form:

y-4 = \frac {1} {4} x- \frac {8} {4}\\y-4 = \frac {1} {4} x-2\\y = \frac {1} {4} x-2 + 4\\y = \frac {1} {4} x + 2

Therefore, the cut-off point with the y-axis is b = 2

ANswer:

y = \frac {1} {4} x + 2

In ΔNOP, the measure of ∠P=90°, the measure of ∠O=17°, and OP = 8.6 feet. Find the length of PN to the nearest tenth of a foot.
SVEN [57.7K]

The length of PN is 2.63 feet

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Given:

∠P=90°,

∠O=17°,

OP = 8.6 feet

PN = ?

The given triangle is a right angle triangle as one angle is 90°

We know:

tan \alpha = \frac{perpendicular}{base}

tan(17^o) = \frac{PN}{OP} \\\\0.3057 = \frac{PN}{8.6} \\\\PN = 0.3057 X 8.6 feet\\\\PN = 2.63 feet

Therefore, the length of PN is 2.63 feet

The function f(x) =4x+3 represents the length of a rectangle. The function g(x)=2x-5 represents the width of the rectangle.Use (
nata0808 [166]

Answer: 32x-68

Step-by-step explanation:

(f•g) is equal to f(gx)

f(x)=4(2x-5)+3

Which is 8x-20+3=8x-17

Now multiply by 4.

4(8x-17)

= 32x-68
