Which function rule is a rational function x/2 x-2/4 x-2/2 2/x

8 0

This expression of yours is problematic in that it's difficult to know which math operations are intended and in which order. In x/2 x-2/4 x-2/2 , which part of the expression is in the numerator, and which in the denominator?

x shows up 3 times. Apparently you meant "the variable x" in "x/2." What about the next "x?" Did you type that in to indicate multiplication or is that "x" a variable also? I think you catch my drift: Your post will need some editing before your readers can understand what you want to do here.

Suppose I interpret your x/2 x-2/4 x-2/2 to mean the following:

( x/2 )
---------- * (x-2/2). If that wasn't your intent, please fix it.
x - 2/4

If this interpretation is correct, then you have

x(x-1) 2x(x-1)
---------------- = ------------. If not, please fix it. This rational function
x-1/2 2x -1 cannot be reduced.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes fuel economy values that are known to be good estimates of the fuel economy

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95$ . So we have T = 1.7531

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7531\frac{0.78}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.34$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 23.29 - 0.34 = 22.95 mpg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 23.29 + 0.34 = 23.63 mpg

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Are the expressions (-2)^4 and -2^4 equivalent? Explain how you know.

Elden [556K]

No, becasue of PEMDAS
so parenthasees first
exponents next
mulitplciation next

(-2)^4=-2 times -2 times -2 times -2=positive number since even number of negative signs

-2^4=-1 times 2^2=-1 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2=negative number since odd number of negative signs

I need help finding x! Please show work for both!

Alenkinab [10]

1. Answer x=-5
You would subtract 25 from each side of the equal sign, taking 25 away from 40 and 25 away from 25, isolating the x. So you would then have -3x=15. You would then divide each side by -3, and getting x=-5
