Answer:
1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Attached to this answer is the diagram of the box plot described in the question, and the means from the plot are calculated thus;
Students; no. of siblings
student 0 2
student 1 4
student 2 7
student 3 5
student 4 2
Total 20
Mean no. of siblings = (total number of siblings) ÷ (total number of students)
Note that number of students here are the once that had at least one sibling, others without siblings are not used in the calculation, hence 5 students (student-0 to student-4) make up total number of students, while the remaining 4 students (student-4 to student-9) are disregarded.
Therefore, mean = 20 ÷ 5 = 4 siblings.
To find how much each person will get, you have to divide the amount available by the people. There are 2 ways I believe we can do this.
First way
Let's divide.
2÷9= 2/9
Each person would get 2/9 of a gallon if they shared it.

Second way
I believe it would be easier to convert this into cups. There are 16 cups per gallon.
16×2= 32
Let's divide that by 9.
32÷9= 3 5/9 cups per person.
≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
Each person would receive 2/9 of a gallon.
The area of the top of the table is 28 × 20 = 560 cm2. The area of Patty’s tiles is 8 cm2 each and the area of Jake’s tiles is 9 cm2 each. Patty will need 560 ÷ 8, or 70, tiles. Jake will need 560 ÷ 9, or about 63, tiles. So, Patty will use about 7 more tiles.
7x+8x+44.4=180
15x=44.4=180
15x=135.6
x=9.04°
so 8x=72.32° and the 7x is 63.28°
The quadratic function given by:
is in vertex form. The graph of
is a parabola whose axis is the vertical line
and whose vertex is the point
. So:
To translate the graph of a function to the right, left, upward or downward we have:

By knowing this things, we can solve our problem as follows:
FIRST.
- Translating <em>11 units to the left:</em>

- Then translating<em> 5 units down:</em>

Since the new function is fatter, the factor we need to multiply the term
<em>must be</em> less than 1, to make the graph fatter. So, according to our options, there are two factors 1/2 and 2.
<em>Therefore, the right answer is </em><em>b. f(x) = 1/2(x + 11)^2 - 5</em>
SECOND.
- Translating <em>8 units to the right:</em>

- Then translating<em> 1 unit down:</em>

As explained in the previous case, there are two factors 1/3 and 3, so we choose the first one.
<em>Therefore, the right answer is </em><em>a. g(x) = 1/3(x - 8)^2 - 1</em>
