A) Attached picture

B) \frac{4}{15}=\frac{x}{20}

C) Not sure what this means

D) Multiplying both sides by 20, x=20 \left(\frac{4}{15} \right)=\frac{16}{3} m.

Which statements are true about exponential functions? Check all that apply.
babunello [35]
The following statements are true about exponential functions:
-The domain is all real numbers.
- The input to an exponential function is the exponent.
- The base represents the multiplicative rate of change.

The reason why the other two options are wrong are explained below:
The range of exponential functions is not always includes negative numbers; on the contrary, the range is the set of all positive real numbers.

The graph of an exponential function does not have a horizontal asymptote at x = 0; contrarily, the equation of the horizontal asymptote of the graph of is y = 0, which is the x-axis.

Kellogg is planning to market a new kind of cereal. However, before marketing this product, the company wants to find what perce
artcher [175]

Answer:

The predominant formula that will be used to solve the problem is,

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kellogg is planning to market a new kind of cereal and wants to determine the percentage of people will like it.

Kellogg will market the cereal if at least half of the people in the population will like it.

So, the company’s research department selected a random sample of 500 persons and asked them to taste it. Of these 500 persons, 280 said they liked it.

The hypothesis to test whether Kellogg will market the cereal is:

<em>H₀</em>: Kellogg will not market the cereal, i.e. <em>p</em> < 0.50.

<em>Hₐ</em>: Kellogg will market the cereal, i.e. <em>p</em> ≥ 0.50.

The decision rule:

A 95% confidence interval for single proportion can be used to draw conclusion about this test.

If the 95% confidence interval consists of the null value, i.e. <em>p</em> < 0.50, then the null hypothesis will not be rejected. But is the confidence interval does not consist of the null value then the null hypothesis will be rejected.

The formula to compute the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all people who like this cereal is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

Here,

\hat p=\frac{X}{n} = sample proportion

z_{\alpha/2} = critical value of <em>z</em> for <em>α</em> = 0.05

Thus, the predominant formula that will be used to solve the problem is,

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}.

You have 30 feet of wire fencing that you want to use to make a rectangular pen for chickens. Let l be the length of the pen. wh
Olin [163]

Answer:

The area would be '15l - l²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

By 30 feet of wire fencing we need to make a rectangular shape,

Thus, perimeter of such rectangle = 30 feet,

We know that,

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2( length + width)

if length = l feet,

⇒ 2(l + width) = 30

⇒ 2l + 2 × width = 30

⇒ 2 × width = 30 - 2l

⇒ width = \frac{30-2l}{2} = (15-l) feet,

Now, area of the rectangle,

A = length × width

= l × (15-l)

= 15l - l²

Which is the required polynomial expression.

Note :

Polynomial expression : an expression having terms consisting coefficients and variables separated by addition, subtraction and multiplication.

If the measure of angle 2 is 3x, and the measure of 1 is 5x - 12 what is the measure of angle 9 ?
Mariana [72]
3x+5x-12=180
8x=180+12
8x=192
x=192/8
x=24

angle 1 = 5x-12
=5(24)-12
=120-12
=108

angle 2= 3x =3*24=72

angle 1 = angle 9
angle 9= 108
