-2 is x

You put -2 in all the x values, it will turn out like this,

f(-2) = -2^2 + 3(-2) = 5

Let is do to first part of the problem,

f(-2) = -2^2

-2^2 = -4

Okay, now let us combine the equation together and do the second part,

f(-2) = -4 + 3(-2) = 5

Note, that if a number touches a parentheses it means multiplication.

3(-2) = -6

Now let us combine the equation,

f(-2) = -4 + (-6) = 5

Add the following numbers

-4 + (-6) = -10

f(-2) = -10 = 5

Divide

-10 ÷ -10 = 1

-10 ÷ 5 = -2

f(-2) = -2

Note that one will do nothing in the equation so we can leave it out.

You're answer would be -2

Hope this helped! :D

f(x) = x^2+3x+5

f(-2) = (-2)^2 +3(-2)+5

f(-2) = 4-6+5

f(-2) = -2+5

f(-2) = 3

Are my answers correct? Precalculus!!

Answer:

Unfortunately, your answer is not right.

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions whose graphs do not have asymptotes are the power and the root.

The power function has no asymptote, its domain and rank are all the real.

To verify that the power function does not have an asymptote, let us make the following analysis:

The function $y = x ^ n$ , when x approaches infinity, where does y tend? Of course it tends to infinity as well, therefore it has no horizontal asymptotes (and neither vertical nor oblique)

With respect to the function $y= \frac{1}{x}$ we can verify that if it has asymptote horizontal in y = 0. Since when x approaches infinity the function is closer to the value 0.

For example: 1/2 = 0.5; 1/1000 = 0.001; 1/100000 = 0.00001 and so on. As "x" grows "y" approaches zero

Also, when x approaches 0, the function approaches infinity, in other words, when x tends to 0 y tends to infinity. For example: 1 / 0.5 = 2; 1 / 0.1 = 10; 1 / 0.01 = 100 and so on. This means that the function also has an asymptote at x = 0

You buy a lottery ticket to a lottery that costs $10 per ticket. There are only 100 tickets available to be sold in this lottery

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Loss of $1.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The possible outcomes for this lottery and their probabilities are:

- a 1 in 100 chance of winning $450

- a 2 in 100 chance of winning $120

- a 4 in 100 chance of winning $30

- a 93 in 100 chance of losing $10

Therefore, the expected value of this lottery when buying one ticket is:

$E(X) = \frac{1}{100}*\$450+ \frac{2}{100}*\$120+ \frac{4}{100}*\$30-\frac{93}{100}*\$10 \\E(X) = -\$1.2$

Therefore, you are expected to lose $1.2 per ticket.

Give the null and alternative hypotheses in symbolic form that would be used in a hypothesis test of the following claim:

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is usually the default statement. The alternative is the opposite of the null and usually tested against the null hypothesis

In this case study,

The null hypothesis in would be that the mean time between clicks of the second hand on a particular clock is 1 second. In symbolic form it would be u = 1

The alternative hypothesis would be that the mean time between clicks of the second hand on a particular clock is 1 not second. In symbolic form, it would be: u =/ 1
