Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we wanna convert x + 2y = 14 into a slope-intercept equation.

x + 2y = 14

2y = 14 - x

y = 7 - x/2 or y = -1/2x + 7

Now that we have the line in slope-intercept form, we can solve for a line that is parallel to.

But first, what do parallel lines have in common? Parallel lines never intersect first of all and second they have the same slope so meaning we’re going to use -1/2 in order to find the equation of a parallel line so…

y = -1/2x + b

use the given point in the question

0 = -1/2(-8) + b

0 = 4 + b

b = 0 - 4

b = -4

The y-intercept of the line is -4

The equation of the line that passes through the point (-8, 0) and is parallel to the line x + 2y = 14 is y = -1/2x - 4

What is the value of f(3)?
Anni [7]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that when x < 6, you will use the expression -4x

f(x) = -4x

Plug in 3 for x

f(3) = -4(3)

Simplify. Multiply

f(3) = -4(3)

f(3) = -12

-12 is your answer

Let X be a set of size 20 and A CX be of size 10. (a) How many sets B are there that satisfy A Ç B Ç X? (b) How many sets B are
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

(a) Number of sets B given that

  • A⊆B⊆C: 2¹⁰.  (That is: A is a subset of B, B is a subset of C. B might be equal to C)
  • A⊂B⊂C: 2¹⁰ - 2.  (That is: A is a proper subset of B, B is a proper subset of C. B≠C)

(b) Number of sets B given that set A and set B are disjoint, and that set B is a subset of set X: 2²⁰ - 2¹⁰.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>(a)</h3>

Let x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{20} denote the 20 elements of set X.

Let x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{10} denote elements of set X that are also part of set A.

For set A to be a subset of set B, each element in set A must also be present in set B. In other words, set B should also contain x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{10}.

For set B to be a subset of set C, all elements of set B also need to be in set C. In other words, all the elements of set B should come from x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{20}.

\begin{array}{c|cccccccc}\text{Members of X} & x_1 & x_2 & \cdots & x_{10} & x_{11} & \cdots & x_{20}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set A?} & \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{No} & \cdots & \text{No}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set B?}&  \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{Maybe} & \cdots & \text{Maybe}\end{array}.

For each element that might be in set B, there are two possibilities: either the element is in set B or it is not in set B. There are ten such elements. There are thus 2^{10} = 1024 possibilities for set B.

In case the question connected set A and B, and set B and C using the symbol ⊂ (proper subset of) instead of ⊆, A ≠ B and B ≠ C. Two possibilities will need to be eliminated: B contains all ten "maybe" elements or B contains none of the ten "maybe" elements. That leaves 2^{10} -2 = 1024 - 2 = 1022 possibilities.

<h3>(b)</h3>

Set A and set B are disjoint if none of the elements in set A are also in set B, and none of the elements in set B are in set A.

Start by considering the case when set A and set B are indeed disjoint.

\begin{array}{c|cccccccc}\text{Members of X} & x_1 & x_2 & \cdots & x_{10} & x_{11} & \cdots & x_{20}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set A?} & \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{No} & \cdots & \text{No}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set B?}&  \text{No}&\text{No}&\cdots &\text{No}& \text{Maybe} & \cdots & \text{Maybe}\end{array}.

Set B might be an empty set. Once again, for each element that might be in set B, there are two possibilities: either the element is in set B or it is not in set B. There are ten such elements. There are thus 2^{10} = 1024 possibilities for a set B that is disjoint with set A.

There are 20 elements in X so that's 2^{20} = 1048576 possibilities for B ⊆ X if there's no restriction on B. However, since B cannot be disjoint with set A, there's only 2^{20} - 2^{10} possibilities left.
