The price of a gallon of milk at a particular convenience store has been recorded over the course of 10 weeks. At the end of the

third week, the price $3.38 and at the end of the eighth week the price is $3.55. The price has been observed to increase exponentially.

<u>Given:</u>

The price of milk at the end of the third week = $3.38.

The price of milk at the end of the eighth week = $3.55.

<u>To find:</u>

The approximate increase in price of milk per week and the cost of milk at the end of the tenth week.

<u>Solution:</u>

To determine the increase in the price per week, we divide the difference in price over n number of weeks by n.

Here we know the prices of milk at the end of the third and the eighth week. There are 5 weeks between these two.

The approximate increase in the price of milk = \frac{3.55-3.38}{5} = \frac{0.17}{5} = 0.034.

So there is an increase of $0.034 per week.

To determine the price at the end of the tenth week, we add the increase in price over two weeks to the price at the end of the eighth week.

The price of milk at the end of the eighth week = $3.55.

The increase in price over two weeks =2(0.034) = 0.068.

The price of the milk at the end of the tenth week = 3.55+0.068=3.618.

Rounding this off to the nearest cent, we get the price of milk at the end of the tenth week is $3.62.

Dwight creates a table of values for a function and plots the points. He finds that one y value divided by the next y value prod
Mashcka [7]

we know that

The exponential function is of the form

f(x)=a^{x}

where

a is any value greater than 0

In General:

It is always greater than 0, and never crosses the x-axis

It always intersects the y-axis at y=1

Its Domain is the Real Numbers

Its Range is the Positive Real Numbers

Examples

Let

a=3

1) For x=2

f(2)=3^{2} \\ f(2)=9

2) For x=3

f(3)=3^{3} \\ f(3)=27

3) For x=4

f(4)=3^{4} \\ f(4)=81

4) For x=5

f(5)=3^{5} \\ f(5)=243

f(3)/f(2)=\frac{27}{9} \\ =3

f(4)/f(3)=\frac{81}{27} \\ =3

f(5)/f(4)=\frac{243}{81} \\ =3

therefore

the answer is the option

D.) exponential

Can someone help me please
babunello [35]

If the functions are inverses, then f(g(x)) = x.

A.

\displaystyle f(g(x))=f\left(\frac{3x+1}{3}\right)=\frac{1}{\frac{3x+1}{x}-3}\\\\=\frac{1}{\left(\frac{3x+1-3x}{x}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)}=x

The functions are inverses of each other.

B. The domain of f(x) = x≠3. The domain of g(x) is x≠0.

The domain of f(g(x)) is (-∞, 0) ∪ (0, ∞).

The domain of g(f(x)) is (-∞, 3) ∪ (3, ∞).

The lengths of bolts in a batch are distributed normally with a mean of 3 cm and a standard
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

0.8413 = 84.13% probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 3 cm and a standard deviation of 0.04 cm.

This means that \mu = 3, \sigma = 0.04

What is the probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2.96. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{2.96 - 3}{0.04}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a p-value of 0.1587.

1 - 0.1587 = 0.8413

0.8413 = 84.13% probability that a bolt has a length greater than 2.96 cm.
