Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-4|=x-4 when x-4 is positive or zero.

|x-4|=-(x-4) when x-4 is negative or zero.

x-4 is positive or zero means:

x-4>=0

Add 4 on both sides gives:

x>=4

x-4 is negative or zero means:

x-4<=0

Add 4 on both sides gives:

x<=4

Now we are approaching values of 4 from the left which means these values are less than 4 which makes x-4 negative.

So we are using:

|x-4|=-(x-4) when x-4 is negative or zero.

As x approaches 4 from left we have:

|x-4|/(x-4)=-(x-4)/(x-4)=-1.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

(9.6, 25.7) is a 80% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have n = 6, \bar{x} =  17.6667 and s = 13.3367. The confidence interval is given by

\bar{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}) where t_{\alpha/2} is the \alpha/2th quantile of the t distribution with n-1=5 degrees of freedom. As we want the 80% confidence interval, we have that \alpha = 0.2 and the confidence interval is 17.6667\pm t_{0.1}(\frac{13.3367}{\sqrt{6}}) where t_{0.1} is the 10th quantile of the t distribution with 5 df, i.e., t_{0.1} = -1.4759. Then, we have 17.6667\pm (1.4759)(\frac{13.3367}{\sqrt{6}}) and the 80% confidence interval is given by (9.6, 25.7)

Nataliya [291]

The U.S RDA for protein is 46g for girl

If a piece of fried chicken contains 23g

To find the pieces of chicken she is to eat to satisfy the U.S RDA requirement,

The number of pieces of chicken is

\text{Number of pieces}=\frac{U.S.\text{ RDA g protein required for a girl}}{g\text{ of protein in a piece of chicken}}

The number of pieces of chicken is

\begin{gathered} \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=\frac{46}{23}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \\ \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \end{gathered}

Hence, the right option is B
