70-q-q-2q= 80

combine like terms first

so you get 70-4q= 80

subtract 70 on both sides and you get -4q= 10

divide -4 on both sides and you get q= 10/-4 or -2.5

Answer:

x = 15.65 and y = 5√2

Step-by-step explanation:

To get x and y we will use the Pythagoras theorem as shown

hyp^2 = adj^2 + opp^2

x^2 = 14^2+7^2

x^2 = 196 + 49

x^2 = 245

x = √245

x = 15.65

Similarly for y;

y2 = 5^2 + 5^2

y^2 = 25 + 25

y^2 = 50

y = √2*25

y = 5√2

Hence x = 15.65 and y = 5√2

Answer:

0.336

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr p^r q^(n-r)

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, n = 8, r = 7, p = 0.8, and q = 0.2.

P = ₈C₇ (0.8)⁷ (0.2)⁸⁻⁷

P = 0.336

Answer:

Choice A) $F(x) = 3\sqrt{x + 1}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the changes that would bring $G(x)$ to $F(x)$ ?

Translate $G(x)$ to the left by $1$ unit, and
Stretch $G(x)$ vertically (by a factor greater than $1$ .)

$G(x) = \sqrt{x}$ . The choices of $F(x)$ listed here are related to $G(x)$ :

Choice A) $F(x) = 3\;G(x+1)$ ;
Choice B) $F(x) = 3\;G(x-1)$ ;
Choice C) $F(x) = -3\;G(x+1)$ ;
Choice D) $F(x) = -3\;G(x-1)$ .

The expression in the braces (for example $x$ as in $G(x)$ ) is the independent variable.

To shift a function on a cartesian plane to the left by $a$ units, add $a$ to its independent variable. Think about how $(x-a)$ , which is to the left of $x$ , will yield the same function value.

Conversely, to shift a function on a cartesian plane to the right by $a$ units, subtract $a$ from its independent variable.

For example, $G(x+1)$ is $1$ unit to the left of $G(x)$ . Conversely, $G(x-1)$ is $1$ unit to the right of $G(x)$ . The new function is to the left of $G(x)$ . Meaning that $F(x)$ should should add $1$ to (rather than subtract $1$ from) the independent variable of $G(x)$ . That rules out choice B) and D).

Multiplying a function by a number that is greater than one will stretch its graph vertically.
Multiplying a function by a number that is between zero and one will compress its graph vertically.
Multiplying a function by a number that is between $-1$ and zero will flip its graph about the $x$ -axis. Doing so will also compress the graph vertically.
Multiplying a function by a number that is less than $-1$ will flip its graph about the $x$ -axis. Doing so will also stretch the graph vertically.

The graph of $G(x)$ is stretched vertically. However, similarly to the graph of this graph $G(x)$ , the graph of $F(x)$ increases as $x$ increases. In other words, the graph of $G(x)$ isn't flipped about the $x$ -axis. $G(x)$ should have been multiplied by a number that is greater than one. That rules out choice C) and D).

Overall, only choice A) meets the requirements.

Since the plot in the question also came with a couple of gridlines, see if the points $(x, y)$ 's that are on the graph of $F(x)$ fit into the expression $y = F(x) = 3\sqrt{x - 1}$ .
