f cannot have a jump discontinuity at [tex]$x_0 \in(a, b)$[/tex] and  [tex]$$ \lim _{x \uparrow x_0} f(x) < \lim _{x \mid x_0} f(x) .$$[/tex]

f cannot have a removable discontinuity at [tex]$$x_0 \in(a, b) $$[/tex] and [tex]\alpha=\lim _{x \rightarrow x_0} f(x) < f\left(x_0\right)[/tex]

Let f be a function defined on (a, b) satisfies intermediate value property.

Claim: f ca not have removable on jump discontinuity.

Suppose f has a jump discontinuity at [tex]$x_0 \in(a, b)$[/tex]

We take [tex]$\theta$[/tex] such that

[tex]$$\lim _{x \rightarrow x_0} f(x) < \theta < \lim _{x \downarrow x_0} f(x) \text { and } \theta \neq f\left(x_0\right)$$[/tex]

Now there exist [tex]$\delta > 0$[/tex] such that [tex]$f(x) < \theta$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0-\delta, x_0\right)$[/tex] and [tex]$f(x) > \theta$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left(x_0, x_0+\delta\right]$[/tex]

Now [tex]$f\left(x_0-\delta\right)[/tex][tex]< \theta < f\left(x_0+\delta\right)$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0-\delta, x_0+\delta\right] \backslash\left\{x_2\right\}$[/tex] and [tex]$f\left(x_0\right) \neq \theta$[/tex].

Therefore the point [tex]$\theta$[/tex] has no preimage under f

that is, there does not exists [tex]$y \in\left[x_0-\delta, x_0+\delta\right][/tex] for which

[tex]$$f(y)=\theta[/tex] because [tex]\left\{\begin{array}{l}y=x_0 \Rightarrow f(y) \neq \theta \\y > x_0 \Rightarrow f(y) > \theta \\y < x_0 \Rightarrow f(y) < \theta\end{array}\right.$$[/tex]

Therefore f does not satisfies intermediate value property on [tex]$\left[x_0-\delta, x_0+\delta\right]$[/tex],

Hence f does not satisfies IVP on (a, b) which is not possible because we assume f satisfies IVP on (a, b),

Therefore f can not have a jump discontinuity.

Suppose f has a removable point of discontinuity at [tex]$x_0 \in(a, b)$[/tex],

Let [tex]$\alpha=\lim _{\alpha \rightarrow x_0} f(x)$[/tex],

Let [tex]\alpha < f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex] so [tex]$f\left(x_0\right)-\alpha > 0$[/tex].

Now [tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow x_0} f(x)=\alpha$[/tex] then [tex]\exists$ \delta > 0$[/tex] such that

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}& |f(x)-\alpha| < \frac{f\left(x_0\right)-\alpha}{2} \text { for all } x \in\left\{x_0-\delta, x_0-\alpha\right]-\left\{x_0\right\} \\& \Rightarrow \quad f(x) < \alpha+\frac{f\left(x_0\right)-\alpha}{2} \text { for all } x \in\left[x_0-\delta, x_0+\delta\right]-\left\{x_0\right\}\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

So [tex]$f(x) < \frac{f\left(x_0\right)+\alpha}{2}$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0-\delta, x_0\right]-\left\{x_0\right\}$[/tex]

Now [tex]$f\left(x_0\right) > \alpha$[/tex].

And  [tex]$f(x) < \frac{f\left(x_0\right)+\alpha}{2} < f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[\left(x_0 \delta, x_0\right)\right.$[/tex]

Let [tex]$\mu=\frac{f\left(x_0\right)+\alpha}{2}$[/tex].

Then there does not exist [tex]$e \in\left[x_0-\delta, c\right]$[/tex] such that [tex]$f(c)=\mu$[/tex]

Because for [tex]$e=x_0 \quad f(e) > \mu$[/tex]

                for [tex]$c < x_0 \quad f(c) < \mu$[/tex].

Therefore f does not satisfy IVP on [tex]$\left[x_0-\delta_1 x_0\right]$[/tex] which contradict our hypothesis,

therefore [tex]$\alpha \geqslant f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex]

Let [tex]$\alpha > f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex]. so [tex]$\alpha-f\left(x_0\right) > 0$[/tex]

[tex]$\lim _{x \rightarrow x_0} f(x)=\alpha$[/tex]

Then [tex]\exists $ \varepsilon > 0$[/tex] such that

[tex]$|f(x)-\alpha| < \frac{\alpha-f\left(x_0\right)}{2}$[/tex] for all [tex]$\left.x \in\left[x_0-\varepsilon_0 x_0+\varepsilon\right]\right\}\left\{x_i\right\}$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow f(x) > \alpha-\frac{\alpha-f\left(x_0\right)}{2}$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0-\varepsilon_1, x_0+\varepsilon\right] \backslash\left\{x_0\right\}$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow f(x) > \frac{\alpha+f\left(x_0\right)}{2}$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0-\varepsilon_1, x_0\right)$[/tex]

Now [tex]$f\left(x_0\right) < \alpha$[/tex]

The [tex]$f(x) > \frac{f\left(x_0\right)+\alpha}{2} > f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex].

So [tex]$f\left(x_0\right) < \frac{f\left(x_0\right)+\alpha}{2} < f(x)$[/tex] for all [tex]$x \in\left[x_0 \varepsilon, \varepsilon_0\right)$[/tex]

Let [tex]$\eta=\frac{f\left(x_e\right)+\alpha}{2}$[/tex]

Then there does not exist [tex]$d \in\left[x_0-\varepsilon, x_0\right]$[/tex] such that [tex]$f(d)=\xi$[/tex].

Because if [tex]$d=x_0, f(d)=f\left(x_0\right) < \eta$[/tex] if [tex]$d E\left[x_0-\varepsilon, x_0\right)$[/tex]

Then [tex]$f(d) > \eta$[/tex]

Therefore f does not satisfies IVP on [tex]$\left[x_0-\varepsilon, x_0\right]$[/tex] which contradict olio hypothesis.

Therefore [tex]$\alpha \leq f\left(x_0\right)$[/tex] (b) From (a) and (b) it follows [tex]$\alpha=f\left(x_0\right)=\lim _{x \rightarrow x_0} f(x)$[/tex]. Therefore f can not have a removable discontinuous

Note that at any time during business hours, about 7 shoppers, on average, are waiting in the checkout line to make a purchase at the Good Deals Store. This is solved using Little Law.

Little's Law asserts that the long-term average number of individuals in a stable system, L, is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate,λ, multiplied by the average duration a customer spends in the system, W.

To compute,

First, let's make sure that all the variables use the same time unit.

Thus, if there are 84 shoppers who are making a purchase per house, then there will be: 84/60 minutes

= 1.4

This means that  λ (rate) = 1.4 and the average time (W) is 5 minutes

Using Little's Law which states that the queuing formula is:

L = λW

Note that:

λ = 1.4 (computed)

W = 5 mintues (given)

Hence, the Average number of people in queue per time is:

L = 1.4 x 5

L = 7 shoppers.

Thus, it is correct to state that at any time during work hours, about 7 shoppers, on average, are waiting in the checkout line to make a purchase at the Good Deals Store.

BC/AB = 24/16 = 3/2

Now, we can write the ratios of the sides of triangle DEC as follows:

CE/CD = 18/15 = 6/5

AC/CD = 20/15 = 4/3

Since the ratios of the sides of the two triangles are equal, it follows that triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC.

B.) To find the length of DC, we can use the fact that triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC. Since the ratios of the sides of the two triangles are equal, we can set up a proportion to solve for DC.

First, we can write the ratio of the sides of triangle ABC as follows:

AC/AB = DC/CE

Then, we can substitute the known values for AC, AB, and CE:

20/16 = DC/18

Then, we can cross-multiply to solve for DC:

DC = (20/16) * 18

= (5/4) * 18

= 45/4

= 11.25 cm

Therefore, the length of DC is approximately 11.25 cm.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To show that triangle ABC is analogous to triangle DEC, we need to prove that the rates of the sides of the two triangles are equal.

First, we can write the rates of the sides of triangle ABC as follows

AC/ AB = 20/16 = 5/4

BC/ AB = 24/16 = 3/2

Now, we can write the rates of the sides of triangle DEC as follows

CE/ CD = 18/15 = 6/5

AC/ CD = 20/15 = 4/3

Since the rates of the sides of the two triangles are equal, it follows that triangle ABC is analogous to triangleDEC.

B.) To find the length of DC, we can use the fact that triangle ABC is analogous to triangle DEC. Since the rates of the sides of the two triangles are equal, we can set up a proportion to break for DC.

First, we can write the rate of the sides of triangle ABC as follows

AC/ AB = DC/ CE

also, we can substitute the known values for AC, AB, and CE

20/16 = DC/ 18

also, we cancross-multiply to break for DC

DC = (20/16) * 18

= (5/4) * 18

= 45/4

= 11.25 cm

Thus, the length of DC is roughly11.25 cm.
