ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Option 4.) month 4

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=3^{x}$ ----> equation A

$g(x)=7x+6$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (3,27)

That means -----> For x=3 months, the populations in both functions are the same (the bacteria populations is 27)

therefore

For x> 3 months the f(x) population is greater then the g(x) population

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C. x³+10x²−5x+5

E. 7x⁵+4x²

F. x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph they described should look something like the one i drew below.

So all you have to do is look at the number with the highest exponent.

If the exponent is an odd number and the x is positive then that function will have an end behavior like the picture i posted.

x³ is good

-x³ is bad because of the negative sign

x² is bad because exponent is even

x⁷ is good

123x¹ is good

Thompson and Thompson is a steel bolts manufacturing company. Their current steel bolts have a mean diameter of 141 millimeters,

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Probability that the sample mean would be greater than 141.4 millimetres is 0.3594.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Thompson and Thompson is a steel bolts manufacturing company. Their current steel bolts have a mean diameter of 141 millimetres, and a standard deviation of 7.

A random sample of 39 steel bolts is selected.

Let $\bar X$ = sample mean diameter

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean diameter = 141 millimetres

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 7 millimetres

n = sample of steel bolts = 39

Now, Percentage the sample mean would be greater than 141.4 millimetres is given by = P( $\bar X$ > 141.4 millimetres)

P( $\bar X$ > 141.4) = P( $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } }$ > $\frac{141.4-141}{\frac{7}{\sqrt{39} } } }$ ) = P(Z > 0.36) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 0.36)

= 1 - 0.6406 = 0.3594

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.36 in the z table which has an area of 0.6406.

A researcher asks participants to estimate the calories they consume in a meal. The researcher records the following estimates:

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Increase

Step-by-step explanation:

The researcher records the following estimates: 450, 426, 310, 500, and 220.

The mean of these estimates is derived below.

Mean = (450+426+310+500+220)/5

=1906/5=381.2

If the researcher removes the estimate of 220.

The mean of the other numbers will be:

Mean =(450+426+310+500)/4

=1686/4=421.5

By comparison of the two mean, we can see that the value of the mean will increase.

Can someone explain 5. please ?

Both denominators are 4, so we can add the numerators to place over the common denominator. The numerators are -3 and -3, which add to -6. One way to think of negative numbers is to think of IOUs, which are a way of expressing debt in money. For instance, if you go into a store and buy a $10 item, but only have $3 in your pocket, then you would have to owe the owner $7. This can be represented with -7. If you repeat the process, then you'd have 7+7 = 14 in IOUs total. This would be represented with -14

In short, adding negative numbers is really the same as adding positives, but the final result is negative

So that's why -3+-3 turns into -6. We add the two threes like normal but then make the final result negative. All throughout this process, the denominator stays at 4.

So we end up with -6 over 4 which reduces to -3 over 2. How is this reduction happening? We are simply dividing each piece by the greatest common factor 2.

-6 divided by 2 = -3

4 divided by 2 = 2
