Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is how to approach the problem:
We see that all our restrictions for all four answer choices are relatively the same with a couple of changes here and there.
One way to eliminate choices would be to look at which restrictions don't match the graph.
At x<-5, there is a linear function that does have a -2 slope and will intersect the x axis at -7. The line ends with an open circle, so any answer choice with a linear restriction of x less than or equal to -5 is wrong. This cancels out choices C and D.
Now we have two choices left.
For the quadratic in the middle, the vertex is at (-2,6) and the vertex is a maximum, meaning our graph needs to have a negative sign in front of the highest degree term. In our case, none of our quadratics left are in standard form, and instead are in vertex form.
Vertext form is f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k.
h being the x-coordinate of the vertex and k being the y-coordinate.
We know that the opposite of h will be the actual x-coordinate of the vertex, so if our vertex is -2, we will see x+2 inside the parenthesis. This leaves option A as the only correct choice.
Answer:
60cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that is a circumscribing quadrilateral, rather than one that is circumscribed. It is also called a "tangential quadrilateral" and its area is ...
K = sr
where s is the semi-perimeter, the sum of opposite sides, and r is the radius of the incircle.
K = (12 cm) (5cm) = 60 cm²
_____
A quadrilateral can only be tangential if pairs of opposite sides add to the same length. Hence the given sum is the semiperimeter.
Answer:
Minimum 8 at x=0, Maximum value: 24 at x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Retrieving data from the original question:
![f(x)=x^{2}+8\:over\:[-1,4]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3Dx%5E%7B2%7D%2B8%5C%3Aover%5C%3A%5B-1%2C4%5D)
1) Calculating the first derivative

2) Now, let's work to find the critical points
Set this
0, belongs to the interval. Plug it in the original function

3) Making a table x, f(x) then compare
x| f(x)
-1 | f(-1)=9
0 | f(0)=8 Minimum
4 | f(4)=24 Maximum
4) The absolute maximum value is 24 at x=4 and the absolute minimum value is 8 at x=0.
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
A study on the latest fad diet claimed that the amounts of weight lost by all people on this diet had a mean of 24.6 pounds and a standard deviation of 8.0 pounds.
Step 2 of 2 : If a sampling distribution is created using samples of the amounts of weight lost by 51 people on this diet, what would be the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means? Round to two decimal places, if necessary.
Answer:
the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means is 1.12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question,
population mean; μ = 24.6 pounds
Population standard deviation; σ = 8.0 pounds
sample size; n = 51
Now determine the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means.
standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means is simply
⇒ population standard deviation / √sample size
= 8.0 / √51
= 8.0 / 7.141428
= 1.120224 ≈ 1.12
Therefore, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means is 1.12
