Answer:

x ≠ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In any case, the domain is restricted to values of the variable for which the function is defined. The value 1/0 is not defined, so the variable cannot allow the denominator to be zero. The denominator x-3 will be zero for x=3, so that value of the variable cannot be in the domain.

The domain is all real numbers except x=3.

Additional comments

It is useful to become familiar with the domains of different functions. As we saw above, the reciprocal of 0 is undefined. The square root of a negative number is undefined. The log of a non-positive number is undefined. Trig functions are defined everywhere, but their inverse functions are not. Polynomial functions are defined everywhere, but ratios of polynomials have the same restriction on denominators that we see above.

A person runs 1/8 mile in 1/64 hour. The person's speed is (BLANK) miles per hour.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: The person's speed is 8 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve we want to convert the $\frac{1}{8}$ and $\frac{1}{64}$ proportionally for the number of miles per hour. We know that multiplying a fraction by its reciprocal will equal 1. So let's do that for the value of the hour.

$\frac{1}{64}$ × $\frac{64}{1} =\frac{64}{64} =1$

Since we multiplied that to the number of hours we must also do that for the number of miles.

$\frac{1}{8}$ × $\frac{64}{1} =\frac{64}{8} =8$

Over [174]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations appear to be ...

12x +4y = 152
32x +12y = 420

These can be solved for y using Cramer's rule:

y = (152(32) -420(12))/(4(32) -12(12)) = -176/-16 = 11

The cost of the vegetarian lunch is 11.

Comment on Cramer's Rule

For equations ...

ax +by =c

dx +ey = f

The solutions are ...

x = (bf -ey)/(bd -ea)

y = (cd -fa)/(bd -ea) . . . . note the denominators are the same expression

Once you memorize the pattern of products, this can be the simplest way to solve a pair of equations--especially if you only need one of the variable values.

Softa [21]

So, 4 x 3 is 12, so 4 blades cost 79.74 x 3 (because every turbine has 3 blades each) is 318.96
