I believe it should be 60 animals were in there before. I just simply took different numbers on my calculator and multiplied by 80% until I got 48. Meaning 80% of 60 is 48. Let me know if this was right.

Round 614,594 to the nearest ten thousand?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

610,000

Step-by-step explanation:

14,000 would be the nearest ten thousandth but its is not over 15,000 so it would round down to 10,000 making the answer 610,000.

The graph represents the piecewise function
mr Goodwill [35]

The piece-wise function is defined as follows:

  • f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3.
  • f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6.
  • f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10.

<h3>What is a piece-wise function?</h3>

A piece-wise function is a function that has multiple definitions, depending on the input.

In this graph, for x at least 0 and less than 3, the parabolic curve passes through (0,0), (1,1), (2,4) and has an open interval at (3,9), hence the definition is:

f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3

For x greater than 3 and at most 6, it is a line going through (3,9) and (6,4), hence:

m = \frac{9 - 4}{3 - 6} = -\frac{5}{3}

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + b

Goes through (3,9), hence:

9 = -\frac{5}{3}(3) + b

b = 14.

So

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6

For x between 6 and 10, it is a line going through (6,4) and (10,10), hence:

m = \frac{10 - 4}{10 - 6} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Then:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x + b

When x = 10, f(x) = 10, hence:

10 = \frac{3}{2}(10) + b

10 = 15 + b

b = -5.

Hence:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10
