Answer:
x = -5
x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x
add 7x to both sides
x^2 + 17x = -60
add 60 to both sides
x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0
factorise quadratic
(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0
<em>x = -12</em>
<em>x = -12x = -5</em>
<h3>
Answer: Choice D. 
</h3>
This is because we want to avoid having negative numbers under the square root. So we make the radicand to be 0 or larger.
The +1 at the end doesn't affect the domain.
D dilation - because they increase/decrease the size of the object but retain its shape.
A, B and C all retain the shape and the size.
Answer:
Example: the median is not affected by very large or very small values (outliers).
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose my income for 5 months is $1000, $1500, $1550, $2000, $90,000. (I hit the lottery in the last month!).
The median is the number in the middle: $1550. That $90,000 would increase the <u>mean</u> ("average") by a lot, but the median is unchanged.
If a newspaper story reports the median house price in a neighborhood is $93,000, that million dollar mansion on the corner won't change the median. Half the prices are less than $93,000 and half are greater.
