Answer:

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

This survey will not be reliable as it is chosen for convenience; the first 120 students to arrive in school on a particular morning and this collection of individuals may not be a representative of the population. The study may become biased because it does not take into account the latecomers among the students which might have been changed the study from systematically favoring certain outcomes.

What is the leading coefficient in 1-2x+5x^4 when in standard form
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
That's a lot of points for this question. You don't have to offer that much. 

Leading Coefficient: When written in standard form (starting with the variable with the highest power, going to the variable with the next highest power ... all the way down to a number with no variable), the leading coefficient is the number in front of the variable with the highest power. 

Let me put this less technically. Find the variable with the highest power. The number in front of that variable is the leading coefficient.

Write this in standard form. 5x^4 -2x + 1
The number in front of the x^4 is the answer.

If f(x) = {(2, 3), (4, 8), (7, –1)} and g(x) = {(8, 2), (–1, 4), (2, 7)}, find (f ◦ g)(x), if it exists.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

(f o g )(x) = {8, 3), (-1, 8), (2, -1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

(f o g)(x) = [f(g(x)]

g(8) = 2 and f(2) = 3  

g(-1) = 4  and f(4) = 8

g(2) = 7 and  f(7) = -1

So, (f o g )(x) = {8, 3), (-1, 8), (2, -1)}

adoni [48]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of a linear inequality is the ordered pair that is a solution to all inequalities in the system and the graph of the linear inequality is the graph of all solutions of the system. Graph one line at the time in the same coordinate plane and shade the half-plane that satisfies the inequality.
