Simplify |x| - |-x|.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Two cases: if [tex]x\ge0[/tex]

[tex]|x| - |-x| = x - x= 0[/tex]

Instead if [tex]x<0[/tex]

[tex]|x| -|-x| = -x -(-x)=-x+x=0[/tex]

Alternatively you can try to graph both [tex]f(x) = |x|; g(x)=|-x|[/tex] and checking the vertical distance between the two graphs

Cheyenne is on her school swim team.
She has won 6 of her 15 events so far
this year. Which equation can be used
to determine how many events she will
need to win in a row to have an overall
win rate of 75%?

Answers

The equation that can be used to determine how many events Cheyenne will need to win in a row to have an overall win rate of 75% is x+6=(3/4)×15.

What is an equation?

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given that there is a total of 15 events. And in order to win 75% of the event, Cheyenne need to win,

The number of matches Cheyenne needs to win = 75% of 15

                                                                                 = 11.25 ≈ 12 events

Since Cheyenne has already won 6 events out of 15, she needs to win 6 more events.

Hence, the equation that can be used to determine how many events Cheyenne will need to win in a row to have an overall win rate of 75% is x+6=(3/4)×15.

Suppose that in a certain state, all automobile license plates have four letters of the 26 English alphabet letters followed by three digits from 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. For example, WCRY-122. How many license plates are possible that begins with A and ends with 1 with NO repetition

Answers

Answer:

[tex]993,\!600[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

There is one way to choose the first character (has to be an [tex]\verb!A![/tex].)

There is one way to choose the last character (has to be a [tex]\verb!1![/tex].)

Since repetition among the letters is not allowed and the letter [tex]\verb!A![/tex] was already reserved for the first character, there would be [tex](26 - 1) = 25[/tex] English alphabet letters available for the second character.

Likewise, with the first and second characters chosen, the third character could be chosen from [tex](26 - 2) = 24[/tex] letters. There would be [tex](26 - 3) = 23[/tex] choices for the fourth letter.

Repetition of the digits is not allowed, either. With the digit [tex]\verb!1![/tex] already reserved for the last character, there would be [tex](10 - 1) = 9[/tex] ways to choose the fifth character (a digit.) There would then be [tex](10 - 2) = 8[/tex] ways to choose the sixth character (also a digit.)

Overall, the number of unique combinations would be:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& 1 \times 1 \times (25 \times 24 \times 23) \times (9 \times 8) \\ =& \; 993,\!600 \end{aligned}[/tex].

Consider the following function.

(a) Find the vertical asymptote(s).
(b) Find the interval where the function is increasing.
Find the interval where the function is decreasing.
(c) Find the local maximum and minimum values.
(d) Find the interval where the function is concave up.
Find the interval where the function is concave down.
Find the inflection point.
(e) Use the information from parts (a)-(d) to sketch the graph of f.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the function is [tex]f(x)=1+\frac{5}{x}-\frac{4}{x^2}[/tex]

A) The vertical asymptotes are located where the denominator is equal to 0. Therefore, [tex]x=0[/tex] is the only vertical asymptote.

B) Set the first derivative equal to 0 and solve:

[tex]f(x)=1+\frac{5}{x}-\frac{4}{x^2}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=-\frac{5}{x^2}+\frac{8}{x^3}[/tex]

[tex]0=-\frac{5}{x^2}+\frac{8}{x^3}[/tex]

[tex]0=-5x+8[/tex]

[tex]5x=8[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{8}{5}[/tex]

Now we test where the function is increasing and decreasing on each side. I will use 2 and 1 to test this:

[tex]f'(2)=-\frac{5}{2^2}+\frac{8}{2^3}=-\frac{5}{4}+\frac{8}{8}=-\frac{5}{4}+1=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]f'(1)=-\frac{5}{1^2}+\frac{8}{1^3}=-\frac{5}{1}+\frac{8}{1}=-5+8=3[/tex]

Therefore, the function increases on the interval [tex](0,\frac{8}{5})[/tex] and decreases on the interval [tex](-\infty,0),(\frac{8}{5},\infty)[/tex].

C) Since we determined that the slope is 0 when [tex]x=\frac{8}{5}[/tex] from the first derivative, plugging it into the original function tells us where the extrema are. Therefore, [tex]f(\frac{8}{5})=1+\frac{5}{\frac{8}{5}}-\frac{4}{\frac{8}{5}^2 }=\frac{41}{16}[/tex], meaning there's an extreme at the point [tex](\frac{8}{5},\frac{41}{16})[/tex], but is it a maximum or minimum? To answer that, we will plug in [tex]x=\frac{8}{5}[/tex] into the second derivative which is [tex]f''(x)=\frac{10}{x^3}-\frac{24}{x^4}[/tex]. If [tex]f''(x)>0[/tex], then it's a minimum. If [tex]f''(x)<0[/tex], then it's a maximum. If [tex]f''(x)=0[/tex], the test fails. So, [tex]f''(\frac{8}{5})=\frac{10}{\frac{8}{5}^3}-\frac{24}{\frac{8}{5}^4}=-\frac{625}{512}<0[/tex], which means [tex](\frac{8}{5},\frac{41}{16})[/tex] is a local maximum.

D) Now set the second derivative equal to 0 and solve:

[tex]f''(x)=\frac{10}{x^3}-\frac{24}{x^4}[/tex]

[tex]0=\frac{10}{x^3}-\frac{24}{x^4}[/tex]

[tex]0=10x-24[/tex]

[tex]-10x=-24[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{24}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{12}{5}[/tex]

We then test where [tex]f''(x)[/tex] is negative or positive by plugging in test values. I will use -1 and 3 to test this:

[tex]f''(-1)=\frac{10}{(-1)^3}-\frac{24}{(-1)^4}=-34<0[/tex], so the function is concave down on the interval [tex](-\infty,0)\cup(0,\frac{12}{5})[/tex]

[tex]f''(3)=\frac{10}{3^3}-\frac{24}{3^4}=\frac{2}{27}>0[/tex], so the function is concave up on the interval [tex](\frac{12}{5},\infty)[/tex]

The inflection point is where concavity changes, which can be determined by plugging in [tex]x=\frac{12}{5}[/tex] into the original function, which would be [tex]f(\frac{12}{5})=1+\frac{5}{\frac{12}{5}}+\frac{4}{\frac{12}{5}^2 }=\frac{43}{18}[/tex], or [tex](\frac{12}{5},\frac{43}{18})[/tex].

261 - 256 - 251

-5 by step

to 50th term there is 49 -5's from 261.

261 + 49.(-5) = 261 - 245 = 16

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence appears to be an arithmetic sequence. To find the 50th term we should create a general formula for the sequence.

General formula of an arithmetic sequence: [tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where An = nth term, a1 = first term , n = number of terms and d = common difference.

The first term is 261 so a1 = 261

The common difference appears to be -5

( 256 - 261 = -5 ) and ( 251 - 256 = -5 )

so d = -5

We want to find the 50th term so n = 50

We then plug all of this in to get the 50th terms

Formula : [tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

a1 = 261 , n = 50 and d = -5

[tex]a_n=261 + (50-1)-5[/tex]

subtract 1 from 50

[tex]a_n=261+(49)(-5)[/tex]

multiply 49 and -5

[tex]a_n=261-245[/tex]

subtract 245 from 261

[tex]a_n=16[/tex]

The 50th term is 16

This means that Antony will get $500, Terry will get $700, and Jack will get $900.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an exterior angle theorem question.

To answer this question, you must know what the exterior angle theorem is:

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles. (not my definition)

So first, you need to add the two opposite interior angles.

3x+8+2x+9 is equal to 5x+17.

Then, you make an equation setting 5x+17 equal to the exterior angle.

5x+17 = 8x-16.

To solve this equation, first add 16 on both sides

→5x+33 = 8x

Then, subtract 5x on both sides

→ 33 = 3x

Finally, divide both sides by 3 to get x=11
