Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) to rewrite the given equation:

f(x)=2(x²+4x)-3; ⇔ f(x)=2(x²+4x+4)-3-8; ⇔ f(x)=2(x²+4x+4)-11; ⇔ f(x)=2(x+2)²-11;

2) the roots are:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x=-\sqrt{\frac{11}{2}}-2 \\x=\sqrt{\frac{11}{2}}-2 \end{array}

3) finally, the correct answer is A.

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. About
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

1 standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 15

About 84% of people will have IQs below 115 because:

84% = 0.84

From z - table, 0.84 corresponds to a z- score of about 0.995

0.995 = 1. 00

The z-score gives the number of standard deviations by which a raw score is above or below the average or mean value.

Raw score = 115

Mean = 100

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

Mean + number of sd's

100 + 1(sd)

100 + 1(15) = 100 + 15 = 115

What is the initial value of the function:<br> f(x)=3/2(2)^x
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

the initial value -- f(0) -- results in a value of 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(0) = \frac{3}{2} · 2^{x}     (any value raised to the power of zero equals one)

f(0) = \frac{3}{2} · 1

f(0) = 3/2 or 1.5
