Answer:
333 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
50 = 10 + 0.12x
40 = 0.12x
333.33 miles = x
equals to spending $49.96
That funky circle in the middle is the composition of the function. It asks you to take a function as an input and to yield an output that's another function. It's one of the five function operations, along with adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.
When you compose, you might find the notation w(u(x)) easier to understand. It's saying evaluate u then evaluate w.
For our functions, the compositions are:
u(w(x)) = u(2x²) = -(2x²) - 2 = -2x² - 2
w(u(x)) = w(-x - 2) = 2(-x - 2)² = 2(x² + 4x + 4) = =2x²+ 8x +8
Now we evaluate each composition at 4.
u(w(4)) = -2(4²) - 2 = -2(16) - 2 = -32 -2 = -34
w(u(4)) = -2(2²) +8(2) + 8 = -2(4) + 16 + 8 = -8 + 16 + 8 = 16.
Thus, u(w(4)) = -34 and w(u(4)) = 16.
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
σ = 4 ; μ =?
8.52 to the left of X
.
P(X < 8.52) = 64.8%
P(X < 8.52) = 0.648
Using the Z relation :
(x - μ) / σ
P(Z < (8.52 - μ) / 4)) = 0.648
The Z value of 0.648 of the lower tail is equal to 0.38 (Z probability calculator)
Z = 8.52 - μ / 4
0.38 = 8.52 - μ / 4
0.38 * 4 = 8.52 - μ
1.52 = 8.52 - μ
μ = 8.52 - 1.52
μ = 7
