Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see in the graph that the function has two values of x where the value of y goes to infinity: x = -6 and x = 6.

These points where the value of the function goes to infinity usually are roots of the polynomial in the denominator of a fraction (when the values of x tend to these values, the denominator of the fraction tends to 0, so we have a discontinuity in the function).

So the option that represents a function that have these points in x = -6 and x = 6 is the function in option B.

The other options show functions that have only one point that goes to infinity.

Avaluate 2^3x-1 for x=1

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

4 or 7 (Check the explanation to see which one your equation actually is.

Step-by-step explanation:

One thing I want to clarify for you, It's Evaluate, not Avaluate.

Okay so, we want to find the value of 2^3x-1 and we know x = 1.

You didn't really clarify if the expression was $2^{3x-1}$ or $2^{3x}-1$ , so I'll be doing both:

For $2^{3x-1}$ , we should plug in x to get $2^{3(1)-1}$ and then simplify to get $2^{2}$ .

2 to the power of 2 or $2^{2}$ is equal to 2 * 2 or 4.

The second one, $2^{3x}-1$ , we should plug in x to get $2^{3(1)}-1$ and then to become $2^{3}-1$ . 2 to the power of 3 or $2^{3}$ is 8 and then minus 1 is 7.

A police department reports that the probabilities that 0, 1, 2, and 3 burglaries will be reported in a given day are 0.53, 0.40

SpyIntel [72]

The mean of the probability distribution is given by the expected value given by

$E(x)=\sum xp(x) \\ \\ =0(0.53)+1(0.40)+2(0.05)+3(0.02) \\ \\ =0.40+0.10+0.06=0.56$

The variance of the probability distribution is given by

$Var(x)=(x-\bar{x})^2p(x) \\ \\ =(0-0.56)^2(0.53)+(1-0.56)^2(0.40)+(2-0.56)^2(0.05)\\+(3-0.56)^2(0.02) \\ \\ =(-0.56)^2(0.53)+0.44^2(0.40)+1.44^2(0.05)+2.44^2(0.02) \\ \\ =0.3136(0.53)+0.1936(0.40)+2.0736(0.05)+5.9536(0.02) \\ \\ =0.166208+0.07744+0.10368+0.119072=0.4664$

The standard deviation is given by

$\sigma(x)=\sqrt{Var(x)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{0.4664}=0.683$

At Silver Gym, membership is $35 per month, and personal training sessions are $30 each. At Fit Factor,

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

5 sessions each

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the personal training sessions be x.

Then at Silver Gym Sarah would spend:

35 + 30x

And at Fit Factor she would spend:

85 + 20x

Since total costs are same, the amounts will be equal:

35+30x = 85 + 20x
30x - 20x = 85 - 35
10 x = 50
x= 50/10
x= 5

So Sarah would buy 5 training sessions for each of the gyms.

And she would spend $185 at each.
