The  graphed piecewise function is conformed of two lines, it can be written as::

Notice that we have two lines that conform the piecewise function.

The linear equation in the left passes through the points (-8, 8) and (-1, 1), so the slope is:

m = (1 - 8)/(-1 + 8) = -7/7 = -1

Then it is something like:

y = -x + b

To find the value of b we use the point (-1, 1), we will get:

1 = -(-1) + b

1 - 1 = b

0 = b

Then the first line is:

y = -x   if x < -1.

The second line passes through points (-1, -3) and (4, 2), then the slope is:

m = (2 + 3)/(4 + 1) = 1

And we can see that it intercepts the y-axis at y = -1, so the linear equation here is:

y = x - 1

Answer:

1.) -4

2.) 3/5 and 6/10 are both equal to 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 16(1/4 - 1/2)

For this one you can either distribute the 16 and solve or just subtract the fractions and solve.  I like the first method personally:

16/4 - 16/8

4 - 8

-4

2.) Fractions can be looked at as dividing the top (numerator) by the bottom (denominator).  If we put each of the answer choices into our calculator and divide, we get 3/5 and 6/10.  Note that 2/3 = 0.66, but that is not the same as 0.6.

The first step we need to do is to convert the measures from inches to feet (12 inches is 1 foot):

8 inches = 8/12 feet = 0.667 feet

6 inches = 6/12 feet = 0.5 feet

So the measures are 12.667 ft and 14.5 ft.

Now, to find the area of the rectangular living room, we just need to multiply these measures:

Since we expect a waste of 10%, we need to increase this area by 10%, that is, we multiply it by 110% or 1.1:

The equation of line passing that has a slope of One-half and passes through point (2, –3) is y = 0.5x - 4

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Equations are classified based on degree (value of highest exponents) as linear, quadratic, cubic and so on. Variables can be dependent or independent. Dependent variables depend on other variable while an independent variable do not depend.

The standard form for linear equation is:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The equation of line passing that has a slope of One-half and passes through point (2, –3) is:

y - (-3) = (1/2)(x - 2)

y + 3 = 0.5x - 1

Answer:

x = a/2 + 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

x^2 - 18 x + 81 = (x - a)^2

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

x^2 - 18 x + 81 = x^2 - 2 a x + a^2

Subtract x^2 - 2 a x + a^2 from both sides:

2 a x - 18 x - a^2 + 81 = 0

Collect in terms of x:

81 - a^2 + x (2 a - 18) = 0

Factor constant terms from the left hand side:

-(a - 9) (-2 x + a + 9) = 0

Divide both sides by -a + 9:

-2 x + a + 9 = 0

Subtract a + 9 from both sides:

-2 x = -a - 9

Divide both sides by -2:

Answer: x = a/2 + 9/2

After the year 2005, France and America will be in recession in the year 2029

What is LCM?

Suppose a and b are two numbers. LCM of a and b is the lowest common multiple of a and b. LCM of a and b is the lowest number that is divisible by both a and b.

Here,

France has a recession every 6 years.

America has a recession every 8 years.

Florence works out when France and America will both be in recession.

It will be possible in the year which is a common multiple of 6 and 8

In the year 2005, both France and America were in recession

France and America will both be in recession again after (LCM of 6 and 8) years

Now,

6 = 2 x 3

8 = 2 x 2 x 2

LCM of 6 and 8 = 2 x 2 x 2 x3

                          = 24

France and America will both be in recession again after 24 years

ANSWER

The graph of y = sin θ shifted to the left by π/2 units

EXPLANATION

This is the graph of y = sin θ shifted to the left π units. In function notation, this shift is represented by adding π to the variable: y = sin (θ + π).

Also, we know that the graph of y = cos θ is like the graph of y = sin θ but shifted π/2 units to the left. So, if we shift the graph of y = cos θ π/2 units to the left, we get the given graph.

Therefore, the only description that does not match the graph is the graph of y = sin θ shifted to the left by π/2 units.

Based on the fact that the data for the average CO₂ over the whole year was smoother than the daily and monthly level, the term for the phenomenon is called Smoothing.

Smoothing refers to a process in statistics where the messier points of a data distribution is removed. In other words, the data points that give the data set a varied distribution are removed so that the data set appears smoother.

There are several methods to engage in smoothing but most of them use averaging over a longer period of time. They would for instance, use the averages of a period over a month or weekly and convert it to an annual measure like the scatterplot of CO₂ for the year.

In conclusion, the fact that the average CO₂ scatterplot for the year was smoothly than monthly or daily is due to smoothing.

There are 11 red counters left so the difference is −11.

To subtract in mathematics is to take something away from a group or a number of objects. The group's total number of items decreases or becomes lower when we subtract from it. The components of a subtraction issue are the minuend, subtrahend, and difference. An arithmetic operation called subtraction simulates the process of deleting items from a collection. The action of subtracting a matrix, vector, or other quantity from another according to predetermined rules in order to find the difference.

Given that,

Add some zero pairs because need to remove 7 yellow counters}$.

Since you need to remove 7 yellow counters, add 7 zero pairs.

When you remove yellow counters, there are 11 red counters left so the difference is:

−4−7=−11

​There are 4 red counters so you should add 7 zero pairs in order to eliminate 7 yellow counters. There are 11 red counters left so the difference is −11.

Therefore, there are 11 red counters left so the difference is −11.

The triangles represent the given parameter

On the triangle, we have the following corresponding sides

AB to BC and AD to DE

This means that

AB : BC = AD : DE

Express as fractions

So, we have

AB/BC = AD/DE

Substitute the known values in the above equation

x/3 = x + 9/11

This gives

11x = 3x + 27

So, we have

8x =27

The given parameters are:

Sides = 3

Fourth side = barn wall

Perimeter = 120 m

Next, we sketch the dog pen using the above parameters (see attachment)

Here, we have

P = 120m

Also, we have

P = 2x + y

This gives

2x + y = 120

Make y the subject

y = 120 - 2x

The area is calculated as

A = xy

So, we have

A = x(120 - 2x)

Hence, the area is A = x(120 - 2x)

See attachment for the graph of A = x(120 - 2x)

We have

A = x(120 - 2x)

Expand

A = 120x - 2x^2

Differentiate

120 - 4x= 0

So, we have

4x = 120

This gives

x = 30

Hence, the value of x that gives maximum area is 30

Recall that

y = 120 - 2x

So, we have

y = 120 - 2 * 30

Evaluate

y = 60

Hence, the dimensions is 30 by 60

From the graph, we have

x = 0 to 60

Hence, the domain of the function is 0 <= x <= 60

Step-by-step explanation:

a distance on a coordinate grid is always the Hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle with the differences of the x coordinates and the y coordinates as the legs.

so, per Pythagoras

distance² = (x diff)² + (y diff)²

we have here a distance 17. 17² = 289.

to get integer coordinates the lengths of the legs must be integer numbers.

what 2 squared integer numbers can be added to get 289 ?

I found after subtracting 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49 and finally 64 (the squares of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) that

289 - 64 = 225, which is also a square number (15²).

so, we get the possible integer coordinates of Q to be

(-4 + 8, 7 + 15) = (4, 22)

in this case the shorter leg has the length 8, and the longer leg the length 15.

the shorter leg is in this case horizontal, because it is the x coordinate difference. and Q is again as described (4, 22).

if we make the shorter leg vertical, that means it is the y coordinate difference. and Q is then

(-4 + 15, 7 + 8) = (11, 15)
