Use the following definition of absolute value to prove the given statements: If x is a real number, then the absolute value of x , | x | , is defined by: | x | = { x if x ≥ 0 − x if x < 0 For any real number x , | x | ≥ 0 . Moreover, | x | = 0 implies x = 0 . For any two real numbers x and y , | x | ⋅ | y | = | x y | . For any two real numbers x and y , | x + y | ≤ | x | + | y | .

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Proved all parts below.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given ,

|x| = [tex]\left \{ {{x , x\geq 0} \atop {-x, x< 0}} \right.[/tex]

To prove- a) For any real number x , | x | ≥ 0 . Moreover, | x | = 0 ⇒ x = 0

                 b) For any two real numbers x and y , | x | ⋅ | y | = | x y | .

                 c) For any two real numbers x and y , | x + y | ≤ | x | + | y | .

Proof -

a)

As given x is a real number

Also , by definition of absolute value of x , we get

| x | ≥ 0

Now,

if |x| = 0

⇒ x = 0 and -x = 0

⇒ x = 0 and x = 0

⇒ x = 0

∴ we get

| x | = 0 ⇒  x = 0

Hence proved.

b)

To prove - | x | ⋅ | y | = | x y |

As we have,

|x| = [tex]\left \{ {{x , x\geq 0} \atop {-x, x< 0}} \right.[/tex]

|y| = [tex]\left \{ {{y , y\geq 0} \atop {-y, y< 0}} \right.[/tex]

|xy| = [tex]\left \{ {{xy , x,y > 0 and x,y < 0} \atop {-xy, x > 0, y< 0 and x <0 , y > 0}} \right.[/tex]

We have 4 cases : i)  when x > 0 , y > 0

                              ii) when x > 0 , y < 0

                              iii) when x < 0, y > 0

                              iv) when x < 0, y < 0

For Case I - when x > 0 , y > 0

⇒ |x| = x, |y| = y

⇒|x|.|y| = xy

For Case Ii - when x > 0 , y < 0

⇒ |x| = x, |y| = -y

⇒|x|.|y| = -xy

For Case Iii - when x < 0 , y > 0

⇒ |x| = -x, |y| = y

⇒|x|.|y| = -xy

For Case IV - when x < 0 , y < 0

⇒ |x| = -x, |y| = -y

⇒|x|.|y| = (-x)(-y) = xy

∴ we get , from all 4 cases

| x | ⋅ | y | = | x y |

Hence Proved.

c)

To prove - | x + y | ≤ | x | + | y |

Let

|x| = |x + y - y|

    ≥ |x + y| - |y|     ( Triangle inequality)

⇒ |x| + |y| ≥ |x + y|

Hence Proved.

Answers

Answer:

26 /33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of days taken filming first movie = 45 1/2

Number of weeks spent filming second movie = 8 1/4

Concerning days to weeks ;

45 1/2 days = 91/2 days = 91/2 ÷ 7 ;

91 / 2* 1/7 = 91/14 = 6. 5 weeks

Hence,

Ratio of first week fuming to second week filming ;

6.5 weeks : 8 1/4 weeks

6 1/2 : 8 1/4

Hey there!

Do you remember what the Distributive property states? If not, no worries! Here's what this property states:

a(b+c)=ab+ac

In this formula, a, b, and c can be

Constants. These are numbers like 1, 2, 3, or -1, -2, -3... or even fractions, decimals... (all real numbers)Variables. These are letters like d, a, s, e, t, k, a...Variables can have a number next to them; it's called a coefficient.

Now that we know what this property states, let's simplify this expression.

5(x-2)

First, multiply 5 times x:

5x (5 is the coefficient of x, by the way)

Then, multiply 5 times -2 (please pay attention to the sign) :)

-10

Put both terms together.

Hence, the simplified expression is

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{5x-10}}}[/tex]

Is it possible to simplify the expression any further? No.

Why? Because 5x and -10 aren't like terms, so we cannot combine them.

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions!

10   -26

The rate of change can be calculated using slope formula: [tex]Rate\:of\:change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Putting values in formula and finding rate of change

[tex]Rate\:of\:change=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Rate\:of\:change=\frac{-2-7}{2-(-1)}\\Rate\:of\:change=\frac{-9}{2+1}\\Rate\:of\:change=\frac{-9}{3}\\Rate\:of\:change=-3[/tex]

question:find the angle measure of the missing angle

if you can pls explain ​

Answers

Answer:

85°

Step-by-step explanation:

So in geometry, the formula to find the sum of all interior angles is denoted as follows:

n = number of sides in the polygon

( n - 2 ) × 180° = sum of the interior angles

Using that formula, a triangle has 3 sides, so

n = 3 , therefore:

= ( 3 - 2 ) × 180°

= 1 × 180°

= 180°

Since the total sum of the interior angles of a triangle all have to add up to 180°, you can create the following equation and solve:

34° + 61° + x = 180°

Solve for x.

plz help

Thank you

Answers

Answer:

The solution is 1,300-1,900

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply put:

The standard deviation is 100. Because the range is 3 standard deviations, you add and subtract 300 from 1,600 instead of the normal 100.

So,

1,600 - 300 = 1,300

1,600 + 300 = 1,900

So, your answer is the third option: Between 1,300 and 1,900

The correct answer is 1,300 - 1,900.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x³ + 3x² - x - 3 = x²(x + 3) - (x + 3)

= (x² - 1)(x + 3) = (x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 3).

The roots of f(x) are x = -3, -1 and 1.

=> g(x) = (x + 5)(x + 3)(x + 1) = x³ + 9x² + 23x + 15.

What is the solution to the gaming systems of linear equations 2X plus 3Y equals 13 for a 6+ 6Y equals 14

Answers

Answer:

(9/2, 4/3) or just x = 9/2, y = 4/3. (it's the same thing)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the first equation 2x + 3y = 13 by 2, so that you get 4x + 6y = 26. Now you have the same coefficient for y. Now, subtract the second equation 6y = 8 (i simplified it first) from the first one that is doubled. After that, you would have just one equation, 4x = 18. So x = 18/4 = 9/2. Substitute x to solve for y, and you'd get 4/3.

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-6, 8 1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations appears to be ...

2x +3y = 136x +6y = 14

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives ...

  3x +3y = 7

Subtracting the first equation from this, we get ...

  (3x +3y) -(2x +3y) = (7) -(13)

  x = -6

Then substituting for x in the first equation, we have ...

  2(-6) +3y = 13

  3y = 25 . . . . . . . . add 12

  y = 25/3 = 8 1/3 . . . . divide by 3

The solution is (x, y) = (-6, 8 1/3).
