Answer: A. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.

Step-by-step explanation: Statistic are used to describe values obtained from a data sample which are regarded as a subset of the data belonging to an entire population. Therefore, in statistical parlance, numerical measurement obtained from such dataset are called statistic. On the other hand, if data from which a numerical derivation was made is a population which consists of the entire set of observations belonging to a particular group of interest, then the numerical values obtained are referred to as a parameter.

If f(x)=2x+sinx and the function g is the inverse of f then g'(2)=
Alexxx [7]
\bf f(x)=y=2x+sin(x)
\\\\\\
inverse\implies x=2y+sin(y)\leftarrow f^{-1}(x)\leftarrow g(x)
\\\\\\
\textit{now, the "y" in the inverse, is really just g(x)}
\\\\\\
\textit{so, we can write it as }x=2g(x)+sin[g(x)]\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\

\bf \textit{let's use implicit differentiation}\\\\
1=2\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}+cos[g(x)]\cdot \cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}\impliedby \textit{common factor}
\\\\\\
1=\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}[2+cos[g(x)]]\implies \cfrac{1}{[2+cos[g(x)]]}=\cfrac{dg(x)}{dx}=g'(x)\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[g(2)]}

now, if we just knew what g(2)  is, we'd be golden, however, we dunno

BUT, recall, g(x) is the inverse of f(x), meaning, all domain for f(x) is really the range of g(x) and, the range for f(x), is the domain for g(x)

for inverse expressions, the domain and range is the same as the original, just switched over

so, g(2) = some range value
that  means if we use that value in f(x),   f( some range value) = 2

so... in short, instead of getting the range from g(2), let's get the domain of f(x) IF the range is 2

thus    2 = 2x+sin(x)

\bf 2=2x+sin(x)\implies 0=2x+sin(x)-2
\\\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[g(2)]}\implies g'(2)=\cfrac{1}{2+cos[2x+sin(x)-2]}

hmmm I was looking for some constant value... but hmm, not sure there is one, so I think that'd be it

Consider the triangle A(4,0), B(-2,4), C(0,6)<br> What will be the equation of the altitude BM?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

BM: <u>y = (2/3) x + 16/3</u> with segment length of 2.77

Step-by-step explanation:

AC formula: m = (6-0)/(0-4) = -3/2

(y-0)/(x-4) = -3/2       y = (-3/2)x + 6   ... (1)

BM slope: BM⊥ AC   m = 2/3

BM formula: (y-4) / (x- -2) = (y-4) / (x+2) = 2/3

y-4 = 2/3 x + 4/3

<u>y = (2/3) x + 16/3</u>   ... (2)    -2≤x≤0.31

intercept of AC and BM (M) from (1) and (2): (-3/2)x + 6 = (2/3) x + 16/3

(13/6) x = 2/3      x = (2/3) / (13/6) = 4/13 ≈ 0.31

y = (2/3) (4/13) + (16/3) = (8/39) + (208/39) = 216/39 = 72/13 ≈ 5.54

M (4/13 , 72/13) or (0.31 , 5.54)

segment BM = √(4/13 - -2)² + (72/13 - 4)² = √1300/169 = 2.77

Suppose that y varies directly as the square of x, and that y=567 when x=9. What is y when x=4
Gwar [14]

Answer:

y  = 112

Step-by-step explanation:

If  y varies directly as the square of x

mathematically;

y ∝ x²

y = kx² where 'k' is the constant of proportionality

let u know the value of k for this equation by making k the subject of the formular from y = kx²

divide both sides by x²

k = y / x²

given that  y = 567 x = 9

k = 567/(9)²

k = 567/81

k = 7

now to get the value of  y when x = 4

from the equation conneting x, y,

y = kx²

y = 7 × (4)²

y = 7 × 16

y  = 112
