First we simplify 12 out of every 15 people: \frac{12}{15}}: \frac{3}{3}= \frac{4}{5}}. \frac{4}{5}}= \frac{400}{x}= \frac{4*100}{5*100}= \frac{400}{500}}. Now we do this: \frac{30}{2hours}= \frac{30:2}{2:2}= \frac{15}{1hour}. Therefore, she charges $15 per hour, but for 5 hours it would be $75 because $15*5=$75. But, your answer is 500 people took the survey. Hoped I helped. :)

500 people took the survey.

12 out of 15 people is 80% of the population.  12/15 = 0.80
Thus, 80% of the population prefers eating in the restaurant.
 
If 400 represents the people who prefers eating in the restaurant; then, 400 is the 80% of the population. To get the total population or 100%, we must divide 400 by 0.80 or 80%

400 / 0.80 = 500 people.

Out of the 500 people, 400 selected eating in the restaurant while the remaining 20% of the population or 100 people selected cooking at home.

The graph of F(X), shown below, has the same shape as the graph of
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. F(x) = x⁴ - x² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we have;

The y-intercept =  2, therefore, when x = 0, y = 2

The graph has no x-intercept, therefore, the unction has complex roots

The possible function is F(x) = x⁴ + x² + 2 and F(x) = 2 - x⁴ - x²

The roots of the function, F(x) = x⁴ - x² + 2, is given as follows;

0 = x⁴ - x² + 2

x = (1 ± √(1 - 8))/(2) = (1 ± √(-7))/(2) which are imaginary roots

For F(x) = 2 - x⁴ - x², we have;

0 = 2 - x⁴ - x²

x = (1 ± √(1 + 8))/(2) = (1 ± 3)/(2)

x = 2 or x = -1, therefore, the function, F(x) = 2 - x⁴ - x², has real roots and the only possible solution is F(x) = x⁴ + x² + 2

How do u graph linear inequality
amm1812
There are three steps

1 rearrange the equation so "y" is on the left and everything else is on the right

2 plot the "y=" line (make it a solid line for y< or y> and a dashed line for y< or y>)

3 shade above the line for a "greater than" (y> or y>) line under that or below the line for a less than (y< or y< line under it)
