Answer:

<h3> $\boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \boxed{11}}}}$ </h3>

Option D is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

$\sf{f(x) = - 2x + 5}$

To find : f ( - 3 )

Let's find:

$\sf{f( - 3) = - 2 \times ( - 3) + 5}$

Calculate the product

$\sf{ = 6 + 5}$

Add the numbers

$\sf{ = 11}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

Answer: f(-3) = 11

Step-by-step explanation: Here we're given the function

f(x) = -2x + 5 and we're asked to find f(-3).

In other words, if we put an x into our function, we get a -2x + 5 out.

So what happens when we put a -3 into the function?

Well if we put a -3 into the function,

that's f(-3), we get a -2(-3) + 5 out.

Now all we have to do is simplify on the right side,

-2(-3) is 6, so we have 6 + 5 which is 11.

So f(-3) is 11.

Points have the following physical properties:

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D. none

Step-by-step explanation:

The point in geometry is defined as the location.

Point A is described as the location of A on any given plane.

Point is represented as a dot.

A dot has no physical dimension like depth, height, thickness or size.

Hence, any two points can not be compared on the basis of any physical parameter.

Suppose a batch of metal shafts produced in a manufacturing company have a standard deviation of 1.5 and a mean diameter of 205

Crank

Answer:

$P(205-0.3=204.7$

$z=\frac{204.7-205}{\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{79}}}=-1.778$

$z=\frac{205.3-205}{\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{79}}}=1.778$

So we can find this probability:

$P(-1.778$

And then since the interest is the probability that the mean diameter of the sample shafts would differ from the population mean by more than 0.3 inches using the complement rule we got:

$P = 1-0.9243 = 0.0757$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the diamters of interest for this case, and for this case we know the following info

Where $\mu=205$ and $\sigma=1.5$

We can begin finding this probability this probability

$P(205-0.3=204.7$

For this case they select a sample of n=79>30, so then we have enough evidence to use the central limit theorem and the distirbution for the sample mean can be approximated with:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And we can find the z scores for each limit and we got:

$z=\frac{204.7-205}{\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{79}}}=-1.778$

$z=\frac{205.3-205}{\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{79}}}=1.778$

So we can find this probability:

$P(-1.778$

And then since the interest is the probability that the mean diameter of the sample shafts would differ from the population mean by more than 0.3 inches using the complement rule we got:

$P = 1-0.9243 = 0.0757$
