Answer:

A.) Even.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function is an even function, then

F(-x) = f(x)

Also, if a function is an odd function, then, f(-x) = -f(x)

You are given the below function

f(x) = 1 + 3x^2 − x^4

Let x = 2

Substitute 2 for x in the function

F(x) = 1 + 3(2)^2 - (2)^4

F(x) = 1 + 3(4) - 16

F(x) = 1 + 12 - 16

F(x) = -3

Also, Substitute -2 for x in the function

F(x) = 1 + 3(-2)^2 - (-2)^4

F(x) = 1 + 3(4) - 16

F(x) = 1 + 12 - 16

F(x) = -3

Since f(-x) = f(x), we can conclude that

F(x) = 1 + 3x^2 - x^4 is even

Determine the domain of the function. f(x) = 13/3-x

Sedbober [7]

Hi..... the domain(D) will be:

$\mathtt {f(x)=\dfrac{13}{3-x}\rightarrow \boxed{D=\{x\in R\,|\,x\neq 3\}}}$

Thanks... :)

Ginger buys lunch at school every day. She always gets

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week is;

D. 8/10 = 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency with which Ginger buys launch = Everyday

The percentage of the time the cafeteria has pizza out = 80%

The outcome of 0 and 1 = No pizza available

The outcome of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 = Pizza available

Therefore, we have the;

Group number ${}$ Percentage of time pizza available

1 ${}$ 80%

2 ${}$ 80%

3 ${}$ 80%

4 ${}$ 80%

5 ${}$ 40%

6 ${}$ 100%

7 ${}$ 80%

8 ${}$ 100%

9 ${}$ 80%

10 ${}$ 80%

Therefore, the sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza = 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.4 + 1 + 0.8 + 1 + 0.8 + 0.8 = 8

The number of runs of simulation = 10 runs

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = (The sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza)/(The number of runs of simulation)

∴ The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = 8/10

write an equation of the line that's passes through the point (1,6) and is parallel to the line whose equation is y= 3x - 5

Alex Ar [27]

Parallel lines have the same slope.
so to find any line, you need a set of points, and a slope.
we already have the slope, being 3.
so, use the equation
y- (y-point)/ x-(x-point)=slope.
y-6. 3
---- = ---- (make it a fraction by puttingitover 1)
x-1. 1
cross multiply.
1(y-6)=3 (x-1)
y-6=3x-3
add 6 to both sides
Final answer: Y=3x+3

For a club gathering you were having, you bought a total of 50 burgers, and spent $90. You paid $2 per turkey burger, and $1.50

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

No. You would have to cut the number of veggie burgers in more than half.

Explanation:

1. Model the situation with a system of equations

a) Name the variables:

number of turkey burgers: t
number of veggie burgers: v

b) Number of burgers:

50 = t + v

c) Cost of the 50 burgers:

$90 = 2t + 1.50v

2. Solve that system of equations:

a) System

50 = t + v

90 = 2t + 1.50v

b) Mutliply the first equation by 2 and subtract the second equation

100 = 2t + 2v
90 = 2t + 1.50v

10 = 0.5v

v = 20 ⇒ t = 50 - 20 = 30

c) How much would you spend if the next year you buy the double of 20 turkey burgers (40) and the half of 30 veggie burgers (15)

$2(40) + $1.50(15) = $80 + $22.50 = $102.50

Then, you if you double the number of turkey burgers, and cut the number burgers in half, you would spend more than $90 ($102.50).

The initial cost of an office fax machine is $100. After 1 year, its value becomes $80. Which is the correct linear depreciation

Elis [28]

Answer:

$y=100-20x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the x-axis be the time (in years) and the y-axis the value of the fax machine (in dollars).

We know that the initial value of the fax machine is $100; in other words, when the time is zero years, the value is $100, or as an ordered pair (0, 100). We also know that after 1 year the value decreases to $80, so (1, 80).

Now we can find the slope of the line passing through those two points using the slope formula

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
