Answer:

16 children

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 20 children comes out to 16 children who are of age 5.

If desired, rewrite "80%" as "0.80" and use that 0.80 as the multiplier of 20:

0.80(20 children) = 16 children.

If the range of the coordinate transformation (, ) = (−2,−3 +1) is (4, −2), (2, −5), (−6, 4), what is the domain?
Alex17521 [72]

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

Given:

The transformation is:

f(x,y)=(-2x,-3y+1)

The range is (4,-2), (2, −5), (−6, 4).

To find:

The domain of the transformation.

Solution:

We have,

f(x,y)=(-2x,-3y+1)

For the point (4,-2),

(-2x,-3y+1)=(4,-2)

On comparing both sides, we get

-2x=4

x=\dfrac{4}{-2}

x=-2

And,

-3y+1=-2

-3y=-2-1

-3y=-3

y=\dfrac{-3}{-3}

y=1

So, the domain of (4,-2) is (-2,1).

Similarly,

For the point (2,-5),

(-2x,-3y+1)=(2,-5)

On comparing both sides, we get x=-1,y=2. So, the domain of (2,-5) is (-1,2).

For the point (-6,4),

(-2x,-3y+1)=(-6,4)

On comparing both sides, we get x=3,y=-1. So, the domain of (-6,4) is (3,-1).

So, the domain of the given transformation is (-2, 1), (-1, 2), (3, -1).

Therefore, the correct option is A.

List the sample space for rolling two dice and finding the sum of the numbers. How many 8's are there in the sample space? [Assu
Reptile [31]
Using the given assumption, there are 3.

The sample space for rolling two dice and finding the sum is:

2   3   4   5   6    7 
3   4   5   6   7    8
4   5   6   7   8    9
5   6   7   8   9    10
6   7   8   9   10  11
7   8   9  10  11  12

From the sample space alone, there are 5.  However, since a 3 and a 5 is the same as a 5 and a 3, this means that 2, 6 is the same as 6, 2 as well; this takes 2 off of the 5, leaving us 3.

A ball is thrown upward from the top of a building. The function below shows the height of the ball in relation to sea level, f(
Verizon [17]
For this case we have the following function:
 f (t) = -16t2 + 48t + 100
 The average rate of change is:
 (f (t2) - f (t1)) / (t2 - t1)
 We have then:
 For t1 = 3:
 f (3) = -16 * (3) ^ 2 + 48 * (3) + 100
 f (3) = 100
 For t2 = 5:
 f (5) = -16 * (5) ^ 2 + 48 * (5) + 100
 f (5) = -60
 Substituting values:
 AVR = (-60 - 100) / (5 - 3)
 AVR = -80
 Answer:
 
The average rate of change of f (t) from t = 3 seconds to t = 5 seconds is -80 feet per second.

Solve the equation
inysia [295]

Answer:

x ≈ 1.32, x ≈ - 5.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 4x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

x² + 4x = 7

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 7 + 4

(x + 2)² = 11 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt11} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = - 2 ± \sqrt{11}

Thus

x = - 2 - \sqrt{11} ≈ - 5.32 ( to 2 dec. places )

x = - 2 + \sqrt{11} ≈ 1.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
