Answer:

The domain is (-∞ , ∞)

The domain is continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to identify the domain of the linear function

The domain in this case can be represented by the set of all real numbers.

When we talk of the domain of a function, we are simply referring to the the range of values between the smallest value on the x-axis and the largest number on the x-axis

Hence, mathematically, we are simply considering the smallest value of b up to the largest value of b in this case. Where b simply represents the number of books

Thus, the domain here will be (-∞ , ∞)

On if the domain is discrete or continuous, we can see that the domain is continuous.

The domain is continuous simply because, the domain we have contains all the values and not some in the set of real numbers. If it had contain only some, then it would have been discrete. But since it contains all, it is continuous

Ribbon is only sold by the spool. A spool contains 25 yards of ribbon. Shannon needs 58 yards of ribbon to wrap all the presents
ella [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{3 spools}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{1 spool =25 yd}\\\text{Spools needed } = \text{58 yd} \times \dfrac{\text{1 spool}}{\text{25 yd}} = \text{2.32 spools}\\\\\text{However, Shannon can't buy part of a spool. She must $\textbf{round up}$ to the next integer.}\\\text{Shannon must buy $\boxed{\textbf{3 spools}}$ of ribbon}

A pipe that is 120 cm long resonates to produce sound of wavelengths 480 cm, 160 cm, and 96 cm but does not resonate at any wave
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A Pipe that is 120 cm long resonates to produce sound of wavelengths 480 cm, 160 cm and 96 cm but does not resonate at any wavelengths longer than these. This pipe is:

A. closed at both ends

B. open at one end and closed at one end

C. open at both ends.

D. we cannot tell because we do not know the frequency of the sound.

The right choice is:

B. open at one end and closed at one end .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the pipe, L = 120 cm

Its wavelength \lambda_1 = 480 cm

                         \lambda_2 = 160 cm and \lambda_3 = 96 cm

We have to find whether the pipe is open,closed or open-closed or none.

Note:

  • The fundamental wavelength of a pipe which is open at both ends is 2L.
  • The fundamental wavelength of a pipe which is closed at one end and open at another end is 4L.

So,

The fundamental wavelength:

⇒ 4L=4(120)=480\ cm

It seems that the pipe is open at one end and closed at one end.

Now lets check with the subsequent wavelengths.

For one side open and one side closed pipe:

An odd-integer number of quarter wavelength have to fit into the tube of length L.

⇒  \lambda_2=\frac{4L}{3}                                   ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{4L}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=\frac{4(120)}{3}                              ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{4(120)}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=\frac{480}{3}                                  ⇒  \lambda_3=\frac{480}{5}

⇒ \lambda_2=160\ cm                           ⇒   \lambda_3=96\ cm  

So the pipe is open at one end and closed at one end .
