Which function is undefined for x = 0? y=3√x-2 y=√x-2 y=3√x+2 y=√x=2

Mkey [24]

For this case, we have to:

By definition, we know:

The domain of $f (x) = \sqrt [3] {x}$ is given by all real numbers.

Adding or removing numbers to the variable within the root implies a translation of the function vertically or horizontally. In the same way, its domain will be given by the real numbers, independently of the sign of the term inside the root. Thus, it will always be defined.

So, we have:

$y = \sqrt [3] {x-2}$ with $x = 0$ : $y = \sqrt [3] {- 2}$ is defined.

$y = \sqrt [3] {x+2}$ with $x = 0:\ y = \sqrt [3] {2}$ is also defined.

$f (x) = \sqrt {x}$ has a domain from 0 to ∞.

Adding or removing numbers to the variable within the root implies a translation of the function vertically or horizontally. For it to be defined, the term within the root must be positive.

Thus, we observe that:

$y = \sqrt {x-2}$ is not defined, the term inside the root is negative when $x = 0$ .

While $y = \sqrt {x+2}$ if it is defined for $x = 0$ .

Answer:

$y = \sqrt {x-2}$

The polygons are similar. Find the missing side length.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangles are similar, so their corresponding sides would be in proportion.

Therefore,

$\frac{24}{32} = \frac{33}{?} \\ \\ \\ ? = \frac{32 \times 33}{24} \\ \\ ? = \frac{4\times 33}{3} \\ \\ ? = 4\times 11 \\ \\ ? = 44 \: units$

The heights of men in a certain population follow a normal distribution with mean 69.7 inches and standard deviation 2.8 inches.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) P(Y > 76) = 0.0122

b) i) P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015

ii) P(Y > 76) = 0.0007

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - The heights of men in a certain population follow a normal distribution with mean 69.7 inches and standard deviation 2.8 inches.

To find - (a) If a man is chosen at random from the population, find

the probability that he will be more than 76 inches tall.

(b) If two men are chosen at random from the population, find

the probability that

(i) both of them will be more than 76 inches tall;

(ii) their mean height will be more than 76 inches.

Proof -

a)

P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)

= P( $\frac{( Y- mean)}{S.D}$ ) > $\frac{( 76- mean)}{S.D}$ )

= P(Z > $\frac{( 76- mean)}{S.D}$ )

= P(Z > $\frac{76 - 69.7}{2.8}$ )

= P(Z > 2.25)

= 1 - P(Z ≤ 2.25)

= 0.0122

⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0122

b)

(i)

P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = (0.0122)²

= 0.00015

⇒P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015

(ii)

Given that,

Mean = 69.7,

$\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{N} }$ = 1.979899,

Now,

P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)

= P( $\frac{( Y- mean)}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{N} } }$ )) > $\frac{( 76- mean)}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{N} } }$ )

= P(Z > $\frac{( 76- mean)}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{N} } }$ )

= P(Z > $\frac{( 76- 69.7)}{1.979899 }$ ))

= P(Z > 3.182)

= 1 - P(Z ≤ 3.182)

= 0.0007

⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0007
