Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 2)(x +6)

1) The function is positive for all real values of x where   x > –4 :

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 3   you have -3>-4 but   (-3+2)(-3+6) = -1 ×3 =-3 no positive .

2) The function is positive for all real values of x where

x < –6 or x > –3.

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 2.5   you have -2.5>-3 but   (-2.5+2)(-2.5+6) = -0.5 ×3.5 =-1.75 no positive .

same method for the statement : "The function is negative for all real values of x where

x < –2."

conclusion : statement about the function is true: "The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2."

Answer:

The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2

Step-by-step explanation:

 the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6)  

LEts find the x intercept of the given function

0 = (x+2)(x+6)

x+2=0 so x=-2

x+6 = , so x=-6

x intercepts are -6  and -2

Lets draw a number line and use x intercepts and make 3 intervals

- infinity to -6     , -6 to -2 and -2 to infinity

LEts pick a number from each interval and check with f(x)

x<-6, pick -7

f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6)  

f(-7)=(-7 + 2)(-7 + 6)  =5 , which is positive

–6 < x < –2, pick 4

f(-4)=(-4 + 2)(-4 + 6)  =-4 , which is negative

x>-2, pick 0

f(0)=(-0+ 2)(0 + 6)  =12 , which is positive

The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2

A distribution of values is normal with a mean of 188 and a standard deviation of 20.8. Find the probability that a randomly sel
padilas [110]

Answer:0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean= 188, Std Dev. =20.8, Z=(x-mean)/Std Dev

P(X less than 167.2)= P(Z less than (167.2-188)/20.8)

=P(Z less than (-20.8/20.8))

=P(z less than -1)= P(Z less 1)

The value of 1 in the normal distribution table is 0.3413

So we add 0.5 to 0.3413 =0.8413

Which of the following is correct equation for the trend line in the scatter plot? A. Y= 2/5 x -2 B. Y= 5x-1 C. Y= 5x +5 D. Y= -
Dafna11 [192]

Answer: C. Y = 5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to write, or decide on, the equation for the blue line as this line represents the trend line for this scatter plot. We will write this in slope-intercept form. <em>See attached for a visual</em>.

    First, we will find our slope. We will use \frac{rise}{run} for this since we have a graph with clear points. See attached, we count up [5] and then count to the right [1] for a slope of 5.

     -> Slope = 5

   Now, we will find our y-intercept. This is where the line intersects the y-axis. The line hits the y-axis at point (0, 5) giving us a y-intercept of 5.

     -> Y-intercept = 5

   Lastly, we will write our equation and decide on an answer.

y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>

y = (5)x + (5)

Y = 5x + 5

             C. Y = 5x + 5

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x-3y= -18 Fully simplify your answer.
qwelly [4]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate -3y by subtracting x from both sides

-3y = -18 - x

Divide everything by -3

y = 6 + 1/3x

Slope is 1/3, and perpendicular lines have the reverse reciprocal slope, so our slope is -3

F(x)=x cubed +3x squared -6x-8
svlad2 [7]

Answer: x = {-4, -1, 2}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

        q                     p

F(x) = x³ + 3x² - 6x - 8

\frac{p}{q} = +/- \frac{1, 2, 4, 8}{1}

Possible rational roots are: +/- {1, 2, 4, 8}

F(1) = (1)³ + 3(1)² - 6(1) - 8

     =  1 + 3 - 6 - 8

     =  -10    <em>Since the remainder is not 0, then x = 1 is not a root</em>

F(-1) = (-1)³ + 3(-1)² - 6(-1) - 8

       = -1 + 3 + 6 - 8

       =  0   <em>Since the remainder is 0, x = -1 is a root.</em>

Use synthetic division to find the remaining factor:

x = -1  →  x + 1 = 0

-1  |  1     3     -6     -8

   <u>|  ↓    -1     -2      8     </u>

      1      2    -8      0

(x + 1)(x² + 2x - 8)  = 0

Next, factor the polynomial:

(x + 1)(x + 4)(x - 2)  = 0  

x + 1 = 0        x + 4 = 0         x - 2 = 0

x = -1              x = -4               x = 2
