so if i haven't made any mistakes, the final answer should be: a∈(-∞,-4]∪{1}∪[8/3,4)∪(4,∞) [/color] |
but when a is +/-infinite there are no solutions to the equation as the curve never crosses the x-axes. |

u are forgetting that a is a parameter, not a variable. for any *specific* value of a ≤ -4, the initial equation will have one and only one solution (though each time a _different_ one) on the given interval for x. read my explanation one more time please :) |

Problem 1:
Bear, Squirrel, Rabbit, Deer, and Owl are seating themselves around a campfire to roast marshmallows. However, they have to be careful about who sits where!
Bear's favorite snack is rabbit, therefore they cannot sit together.
Every time Owl hoots Deer gets nervous so they do not sit next to each other.
Squirrel's arms are really short so Bear is next to her to help with the marshmallows.
Owl is allergic to chestnuts so he cannot be next to Squirrel because she smells like them.
Question: In what order are they sitting around the campfire?
Extra: After the campfire everyone shakes "hands" (paws, hooves, talons) before going home. How many shakes are exchanged?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Problem 2:
A sequence {an} is bounded above if there is some K such that anK for all n. We say that K is an upper bound for the sequence.
There is a similar definition of a sequence being bounded below.
The number K may not be the best or smallest upper bound. All we know from the definition is that it will be an upper bound.
The sequence an = 2 + (- 1)n is bounded above.
ok solve this
