Answer:

increase

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data is: 71, 67, 67, 17, 69, 84, 21, 87

Arranging in ascending order we find: 17, 21, 67, 67, 69, 71, 84, 87

Here N = 8 (Even number)

N/2 = 4 and N/2 + 1 = 5

4th term = 67, 5th term = 69

-> median = Sum of 4th and 5th term/2 = (67 + 69)/2 = 132/2 = 66

Now, when one of the 67 is replaced by 71, the new data set in ascending order will be: 17, 21, 67, 69, 71, 71, 84, 87

Here, 4th term = 69, 5th term = 71

New median = (69 + 71)/2 = 140/2 = 70

-> new median > initial median

CONCLUSION: Median will increase if the number 71 replaced one of the 67's in the set.

What point on the parabola is closest to the point

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Suppose the closest point is at p=(x0,y0), and set q=(−2,−3). Then the tangent to the parabola at p is perpendicular to ℓ, the line through p,q. and we end up numerically computing the roots from here.

8. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 and passes through the

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

$\sf 2x + 5y = 15$

$\sf 5y = -2x + 15$

$\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}$

$\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3$

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is $\bold -\frac{2}{5}$

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

$\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.

Give an example of a rational function that has a horizontal asymptote at y = 0 and a vertical asymptote at

Vesnalui [34]

F(x)=x^2/(x-2)(x-1), the degree of the numerator and the degree of the denominator equal and the quotient of their coefficient equal to 1(horizontal asymptote means that the lines approach a certain number when the input approaches positive or negative infinity)
and when plugging in 2 or 1 as input, the output is undefined.
