Answer:

12-9x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an algebraic expression from the given statement

Let us start with the product of 9 and a number x

What this mean is that we want to multiply 9 and x

That gives 9 * x = 9x

Now, 12 is decreased by this product means we are to subtract 12 from it

we have this finally as;

12-9x

(1 point) consider the function f(t)=⎧⎩⎨⎪⎪⎪⎪0,−5,−6,6,t<00≤t<11≤t<7t≥7;f(t)={0,t<0−5,0≤t<1−6,1≤t<76,t≥7; 1. wr

$f(t)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

Recall that

$u(t)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

Take it one piece at a time. For $t\ge0$ , we can scale $u(t)$ by -5:

$-5u(t)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

If we shift the argument by 1 and scale by -5, we have

$-5u(t-1)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

so if we subtract this from $-5u(t)$ , we'll end up with

$-5u(t)+5u(t-1)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

For the next piece, we can add another scaled and shifted step like

$-6u(t-1)+6u(t-7)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

so that

$-5u(t)+5u(t-1)-6u(t-1)+6u(t-7)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

For the last piece, we add one more term:

$6u(t-7)=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }t$

and so putting everything together, we get $f(t)$ :

$f(t)\equiv-5u(t)+5u(t-1)-6u(t-1)+6u(t-7)+6u(t-7)$
$f(t)\equiv-5u(t)-u(t-1)+12u(t-7)$

here is an example!
