Steps to solve:

g(x) = 3 - 2x when g(-1)

~Substitute

g(-1) = 3 - 2(-1)

~Simplify

g(-1) = 3 - (-2)

~Simplify

g(-1) = 3 + 2

~Add

g(-1) = 5

Best of Luck!

Automobile engineers wanted to check the effect of a new automatic transmission on mileage. They selected 50 cars of the same ma

daser333 [38]

Answer:

d. Twenty-five cars are randomly selected with the new transmission and 25 with the old transmission.

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis test on the difference between the means must satisfy the following conditions

1) the samples must be randomly selected

2) each sample must have a known standard deviation

3) the samples must be independent

4) the samples must be from normal distribution

Hence only part d gives the right answer.

The graphs of the equation y = 4x + 1 and y - kx = 10 are perpendicular when k = _______?

Ann [662]

Answer:

$k=-\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Line 1

$y=4x+1$

Equation in slope intercept form

The slope is equal to

$m_1=4$

Line 2

$y-kx=10$

$y=kx+10$

Equation in slope intercept form

The slope is equal to

$m_2=k$

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of the slopes is equal to -1)

so

$m_1*m_2=-1$

substitute

$(4)(k)=-1$

$k=-\frac{1}{4}$

Given the quadratic function f(x) = 4x^2 - 4x + 3, determine all possible solutions for f(x) = 0

solong [7]

Answer:

The solutions to the quadratic function are:

$x=i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2},\:x=-i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)\:=\:4x^2\:-\:4x\:+\:3$

Let us determine all possible solutions for f(x) = 0

$0=4x^2-4x+3$

switch both sides

$4x^2-4x+3=0$

subtract 3 from both sides

$4x^2-4x+3-3=0-3$

simplify

$4x^2-4x=-3$

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{4x^2-4x}{4}=\frac{-3}{4}$

$x^2-x=-\frac{3}{4}$

Add (-1/2)² to both sides

$x^2-x+\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=-\frac{3}{4}+\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2$

$x^2-x+\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=-\frac{1}{2}$

$\left(x-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=-\frac{1}{2}$

$\mathrm{For\:}f^2\left(x\right)=a\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}$

solving

$x-\frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{-\frac{1}{2}}$

$x-\frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$ ∵ $\sqrt{-\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$

as

$\sqrt{-1}=i$

so

$x-\frac{1}{2}=i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$

Add 1/2 to both sides

$x-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$

$x=i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$

also solving

$x-\frac{1}{2}=-\sqrt{-\frac{1}{2}}$

$x-\frac{1}{2}=-i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}$

Add 1/2 to both sides

$x-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=-i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$

$x=-i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic function are:

$x=i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2},\:x=-i\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{1}{2}$
