A local bakery buys their flour in bulk. The relationship between the cost of the flour and its weight is shown in the graph bel

Nataly [62]

The relationship shown for the flour and the cost is that of a direct variation because the graph is a straight line, noting that the increase of one variable causes also the increase to the value of the other. The point (1, 0.75) means that every pound of flour costs 0.75 dollar. From the graph given, the bakery will have to pay approximately $30 for 40 pounds of flour.

Solve the following quadratic equations by any method. The solutions are:

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Option C .

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to solve the below quadratic equation ,

$\longrightarrow f(x) = x^2-12x +32$

Step 1 : Equate f(x) with 0 :-

$\longrightarrow f(x) = 0\\$

$\longrightarrow x^2-12x + 32=0$

Step 2 : Factorise the RHS :-

$\longrightarrow x^2-8x - 4x +32=0\\$

$\longrightarrow x(x-8)-4(x-8)=0\\$

$\longrightarrow (x-8)(x-4)=0\\$

Step 3 : Equate each factor with 0 :-

$\longrightarrow x - 8 = 0\\ \qquad x -4=0$

$\longrightarrow x = 8 \qquad x = 4$

$\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{ x = 8,4}}}$

Hence option C is correct .

A random sample of n = 9 structural elements is tested for comprehensive strength. We know the true mean comprehensive strength

irinina [24]

Answer:

Probability that the sample mean comprehensive strength exceeds 4985 psi is 0.99999.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of n = 9 structural elements is tested for comprehensive strength. We know the true mean comprehensive strength μ = 5500 psi and the standard deviation is σ = 100 psi.

Let $\bar X$ = sample mean comprehensive strength

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 comprehensive strength = 5500 psi

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 100 psi

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) 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.

Now, Probability that the sample mean comprehensive strength exceeds 4985 psi is given by = P( $\bar X$ > 4985 psi)

P( $\bar X$ > 4985 psi) = P( $\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ > $\frac{4985-5500}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{9} } }$ ) = P(Z > -15.45) = P(Z < 15.45)

= 0.99999

Since in the z table the highest critical value of x for which a probability area is given is x = 4.40 which is 0.99999, so we assume that our required probability will be equal to 0.99999.

Given that R=9x+8y find x when y=8 and R=4

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

R = 9x + 8y

4 = 9x + 8*8

4 = 9x + 64

Subtract 64 from both sides

4 - 64 = 9x + 64 - 64

-60 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9

-60/9 = 9x/9

-20/3 = x

x = -6 2/3

Enter the equations of the asymptotes for the function f(x). f(x)= 3/x−7 + 2

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

x = 7, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume it is 3/(x-7) + 2.

When x = 7, there is an asymptote because it is undefined.

When y = 2, there is also one, because 3/(x-7) is never 0.

These are the only ones.
