Answer:

B and D

This is what a parameter is it should help you on the rest of the school year "The value of a parameter is a fixed number. In contrast to this, since a statistic depends upon a sample, the value of a statistic can vary from sample to sample. Suppose our population parameter has a value, unknown to us, of 10. One sample of size 50 has the corresponding statistic with value 9.5. Another sample of size 50 from the same population has the corresponding statistic with value 11.1." The only ones that fit this is b and d

xenn [34]

Answer:

First number = 4

Second number = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first number = x, the second number = x + 5.

The calculation can be expressed as follows:

x + 2(x + 5) = 22

First, expand the bracket 2(x + 5):

x + 2x + 10 = 22

Combine like terms:

3x + 10 = 22

Subtract 10 from both sides:

3x = 12

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 4

First number = 4

Second number = 4 + 5 = 9

A) what is average rate of change of f(x) over the interval from x=5 to x=9? (table shows values of f(x). graph shows function o

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The average rate of change of a function over the interval $[a,b]$ is equal to $\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$ , hence:

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\\frac{f(9)-f(5)}{9-5}\\\\\frac{14-(-4)}{9-5}\\ \\\frac{14+4}{4}\\ \\\frac{18}{4}\\ \\\frac{9}{2}$

Therefore, the average rate of change of $f(x)$ over the interval $[5,9]$ is $\frac{9}{2}$ .

Part B

Do the same thing as in Part A:

$\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\ \\\frac{f(1)-f(0.25)}{1-0.25}\\ \\\frac{2-5}{0.75}\\ \\\frac{-3}{0.75}\\ \\-4$

Therefore, the average rate of change of $g(x)$ over the interval $[0.25,1]$ is $-4$ .

Part C

To interpret our answer from Part B in terms of the real world it represents, we say that between 0.25 seconds and 1 second, the ball falls at a rate of 4 feet per second (since our average rate of change is negative).

A customer wants to purchase a pair of shoes that cost $45 and the state sales tax is 7%.

Rasek [7]

Answer:

$22.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax is calculated by 0.075 * 21.25 = 1.59375 or $1.59. So the total bill is the cost of items purchased plus tax, which is $21.25 + $1.59 = $22.84.

which expressions are equivalent to the first one? I don't understand how to determine that so please explain. Thanks!

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

(a) -(x+7)/y

(b) (x+7)/-y

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can show expressions are equivalent. Perhaps the easiest and best is to put them in the same form. For an expression such as this, I prefer the form of answer (a), where the minus sign is factored out and the numerator and denominator have positive coefficients.

The given expression with -1 factored out is ...

$\dfrac{-x-7}{y}=\dfrac{1(x+7)}{y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}} \quad\text{matches A}$

Likewise, the expression of (b) with the minus sign factored out is ...

$\dfrac{x+7}{-y}=\boxed{-\dfrac{x+7}{y}}$

On the other hand, simplifying expression (c) gives something different.

$\dfrac{-x-7}{-y}=\dfrac{-(x+7)}{-(y)}=\dfrac{x+7}{y} \qquad\text{opposite the given expression}$

Another way you can write the expression is term-by-term with the terms in alpha-numeric sequence (so they're more easily compared).

Given: (-x-7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

(a) -(x+7)/y = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

(b) (x+7)/(-y) = (-x/y) +(-7/y)

Of course, you need to know the use of the distributive property and the rules of signs.

a(b+c) = ab +ac

-a/b = a/(-b) = -(a/b)

-a/(-b) = a/b

Summary: The given expression matches (a) and (b).

Additional comments

Sometimes, when I'm really stuck trying to see if two expressions are equal, I subtract one from the other. If the difference is zero, then I know they are the same. Looking at (b), we could compute ...

$\left(\dfrac{-x-7}{y}\right)-\left(\dfrac{x+7}{-y}\right)=\dfrac{-y(-x-7)-y(x+7)}{-y^2}\\\\=\dfrac{xy+7y-xy-7y}{-y^2}=\dfrac{0}{-y^2}=0$

Yet another way to check is to substitute numbers for the variables. It is a good idea to use (at least) one more set of numbers than there are variables, just to make sure you didn't accidentally find a solution where the expressions happen to be equal. We can use (x, y) = (1, 2), (2, 3), and (3, 5) for example.

The given expression evaluates to (-1-7)/2 = -4, (-2-7)/3 = -3, and (-3-7)/5 = -2.

(a) evaluates to -(1+7)/2 = -4, -(2+7)/3 = -3, -(3+7)/5 = -2, same as given

(b) evaluates to (1+7)/-2 = -4, (2+7)/-3 = -3, (3+7)/-5 = -2, same as given
