Hey there! :)

We are given the piecewise function:

\displaystyle \large{f(x) =  \begin{cases}  {x}^{3}  \:  \: (x < 0) \\  \sqrt[3]{x}  \:  \: (x > 0) \end{cases}}

To evaluate the value of function at x = -8 and x = 8, we know that -8 is less than 0 and 8 is greater than 0.

Therefore, if we want to evaluate the value of function at x = -8; we use the x^3 since it's given x < 0 for the function and for x = 8; we use the cube root of x since it's given x > 0.

Evaluate x = -8

From the piecewise function:

\displaystyle \large{f(x) =  \begin{cases}  {x}^{3}  \:  \: (x < 0) \\  \sqrt[3]{x}  \:  \: (x > 0) \end{cases}}

Since -8 is less than 0, we use x^3.

\displaystyle \large{f( - 8) =  {( - 8)}^{3} } \\  \displaystyle \large{f( - 8) =   - 512}

Evaluate x = 8

From the piecewise function, since 8 is greater than 0, we use the cube root of x.

\displaystyle \large{f(8) =  \sqrt[3]{8} }

To evaluate the cube root, first we prime-factor the number.

\displaystyle \large{f(8) =  \sqrt[3]{2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2} }

Since it's a cube root, we pull three 2's out of the cube root and write only one 2.

\displaystyle \large{f(8) =2}

Answer

  • f(-8) = -512
  • f(8) = 2

Let me know if you have any questions!

Answer:

f(-8) = -512, f(8) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = -8 and 8 into the function, taking into account the rules of the function.

For x = -8, x < 0 so the value is equal to the cube of -8, which is -512.

For x = 8, x > 0 so the value is equal to the cube root of 8, which is 2.

A bed is on sale for 25% off of its original price. It originally cost $879.00. How much is the sale price of the bed?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$659.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since its 25 percent off we need to see what it would look as a decimal

1-.25=.75

879times.75= 659.25

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Median= 14

Mean= 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Median:

Put the numbers in order,

4, 7, 9, 14, 16, 19, 20 Then after that you find the number exactly in the middle. That number ends up to be 14.

Mean:

Add up all of the numbers and then round it to the nearest tenth: 90

Median= 14

Mean= 90
