If we divide 800/1000, we get .8 This means The price of $800 is only 80% of  $1000. Furthermore, this also means that there was a decrease in price of 20%. The answer is C.

Answer:

The inverse function of f(x)=2.5*x+150 is f⁻¹(x)=\frac{2}{5}x-60

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse or reciprocal function of f (x) is called another function f ⁻¹(x) that fulfills that:

If f(a)=b then f⁻¹(b)=a

That is, inverse functions are functions that do the "opposite" of each other. For example, if the function f (x) converts a to b, then the inverse must convert b to a.

To construct or calculate the inverse function of any function, you must  follow the steps below:

Since f (x) or y is a function that depends on x, the variable x is solved as a function of the variable y. And since inverse functions swap the input and output values ​​(that is, if f (x) = y then f⁻¹(y) = x), then the variables are swapped and write the inverse as a function.

You know that he function f(x) = 2.5*x + 150 or y=2.5*x +150

Solving for x:

2.5*x +150=y

2.5*x= y-150

x=\frac{y-150}{2.5}

x=\frac{y}{2.5}-\frac{150}{2.5}

x=0.4y-60=\frac{2}{5}y-60

Exchanging the variable, you obtain that <u><em>the inverse function of f(x)=2.5*x+150 is f⁻¹(x)=</em></u>\frac{2}{5}x-60<u><em></em></u>

The director of admissions at Kinzua University in Nova Scotia estimated the distribution of student admissions for the fall sem
wariber [46]

Answer:

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:  

E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)  

And if we use the values obtained we got:  

E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of admisions at the universit, and we have this probability distribution given:

X        1060   1400    1620

P(X)     0.5      0.1        0.4

In statistics and probability analysis, the expected value "is calculated by multiplying each of the possible outcomes by the likelihood each outcome will occur and then summing all of those values".

The variance of a random variable Var(X) is the expected value of the squared deviation from the mean of X, E(X).

And the standard deviation of a random variable X is just the square root of the variance.  

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:  

E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)  

And if we use the values obtained we got:  

E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318
