Given the functions
\[
\text{$f(x) = -\frac{2}
{x}$ and $g(x)= \frac{k}
{x}$}
\]
find the value of the parameter \(k\in \mathbb{R}\setminus \{0\}\)
which ensures
\[
g(2) = 2f(-2).
\]
Consider the function
\[
f(x) = [x] + 3
\]
on the domain \(\mathop{\mathrm{Dom}}(f) = (1;2)\).
Find the parameters \(a\)
and \(b\)
and a domain of the linear function
\[
g\colon y = ax + b
\]
which ensure that \(f\)
and \(g\)
are identical functions.
\[ \]
Hint: The function \(y = [x]\)
is a floor function: the largest integer less than or equal to
\(x\). For positive
\(x\) it is also called the
integer part of \(x\).
Consider the function
\[
f(x) =\mathop{ \mathrm{sgn}}\nolimits (x - 2)
\]
defined on \(\mathop{\mathrm{Dom}}(f) =\mathbb{R} ^{-}\). Find
the parameters \(a\)
a \(b\) and
domain of the linear function
\[
g(x) = ax + b
\]
which ensure that \(f\)
and \(g\)
are identical functions.
\[ \]
Hint: The function \(y =\mathop{ \mathrm{sgn}}\nolimits (x)\)
is the sign function. The values of sign function is
\(1\) for each
positive \(x\),
\(- 1\) for each
negative \(x\)
and \(0\) if
\(x = 0\).
Identify a function which has the following three properties: it has at least one minimum or maximum, it is an increasing function and the range of this function is the set of all nonnegative numbers.
Paul's home is \(6\, \mathrm{km}\) from
the school. At the time \(t = 0\)
Paul starts to walk from his home to the school along a straight street at a constant
velocity \(5\, \mathrm{km}/\mathrm{h}\).
Find the function which describes Paul's remaining distance to the school as a
function of time.
The price of a goods in a shop is \(\$15\)
per item. The Internet price in an e-shop is cheaper by
\(\$2\) per item. The shipping
cost of the e-shop is \(\$125\).
What is the minimal number of items, which makes the total cost for a transaction
smaller in the e-shop?
A fuel tank in a car has the capacity \(40\)
litres. The current volume of the fuel in the fuel tank is
\(6\) litres. The speed
of fuelling is \(1\) litre
of gasoline each \(3\)
seconds. Find the function which describes the volume of the gasoline in the fuel tank (in litres)
as a function of time (in seconds).
An automatic machine produces \(12\)
components per minute and stores them in a box with capacity
\(1\: 500\)
components. The machine starts with an initial amount of
\(240\)
components in the box. In what time will be the box full?
