Answer:

Range = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets arrange the ages in order first:

8, 10, 11, 12, 13 , 14

The range is the highest value from the set of numbers MINUS the lowest value.

The arranged number tells us that the:

Highest Value = 14

Lowest Value = 8

Thus, we can say:

Range = highest - lowest = 14 - 8 = 6

Range = 6

Identify the functions that are continuous on the set of real numbers and arrange them in ascending order of their limits as x t

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

g(x)<j(x)<k(x)<f(x)<m(x)<h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $f(x)=\frac{x^2+x-20}{x^2+4}$

The denominator of f is defined for all real values of x

Therefore, the function is continuous on the set of real numbers

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x^2+x-20}{x^2+4}=\frac{25+5-20}{25+4}=\frac{10}{29}=0.345$

3. $h(x)=\frac{3x-5}{x^2-5x+7}$

$x^2-5x+7=0$

It cannot be factorize .

Therefore, it has no real values for which it is not defined .

Hence, function h is defined for all real values.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{3x-5}{x^2-5x+7}=\frac{15-5}{25-25+7}=\frac{10}{7}=1.43$

2. $g(x)=\frac{x-17}{x^2+75}$

The denominator of g is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function g is continuous on the set of real numbers

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x-17}{x^2+75}=\frac{5-17}{25+75}=\frac{-12}{100}=-0.12$

4. $i(x)=\frac{x^2-9}{x-9}$

x-9=0

x=9

The function i is not defined for x=9

Therefore, the function i is not continuous on the set of real numbers.

5. $j(x)=\frac{4x^2-7x-65}{x^2+10}$

The denominator of j is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function j is continuous on the set of real numbers.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{4x^2-7x-65}{x^2+10}=\frac{100-35-65}{25+10}=0$

6. $k(x)=\frac{x+1}{x^2+x+29}$

$x^2+x+29=0$

It cannot be factorize .

Therefore, it has no real values for which it is not defined .

Hence, function k is defined for all real values.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x+1}{x^2+x+29}=\frac{5+1}{25+5+29}=\frac{6}{59}=0.102$

7. $l(x)=\frac{5x-1}{x^2-9x+8}$

$x^2-9x+8=0$

$x^2-8x-x+8=0$

$x(x-8)-1(x-8)=0$

$(x-8)(x-1)=0$

$x=8,1$

The function is not defined for x=8 and x=1

Hence, function l is not defined for all real values.

8. $m(x)=\frac{x^2+5x-24}{x^2+11}$

The denominator of m is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function m is continuous on the set of real numbers.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x^2+5x-24}{x^2+11}=\frac{25+25-24}{25+11}=\frac{26}{36}=\frac{13}{18}=0.722$

g(x)<j(x)<k(x)<f(x)<m(x)<h(x)

Suppose systolic blood pressure of 17 year female is approximately distributed with a mean of 118mmHg and a standard deviation o

Artemon [7]

Answer:

a) 0.383

b) 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculate each z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z₁ = (112 − 118) / 12 = -0.5

z₂ = (124 − 118) / 12 = 0.5

Use a calculator or z-score table to find the probability.

P(-0.5 < Z < 0.5) = 0.6915 − 0.3085 = 0.383

b) 0.383 × 16 ≈ 6. So the expected proportion would be 6/16 = 0.375.
