An example of a non-linear and linear function?

Mathematics
2 answers:
ollegr [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Non-linear: y=x^(2)+3x-17

Linear: y= 8x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic, exponential, and square root functions are all non-linear. They should not be straight. There is always an x and/or y value that they will never be on. Linear functions can touch all values. That sounds very confusing, but it's better than nothing, so I'm sorry.

I don't know a better way to explain it.

Linear functions have a constant slope, so nonlinear functions have a slope that varies between points. Algebraically, linear functions are polynomials with highest exponent equal to 1 or of the form y = c where c is constant. Nonlinear functions are all other functions. An example of a nonlinear function is y = x^2.

A random sample of 30 households was selected as part of a study on electricity usage, and the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) wa
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean usage in the March quarter of 2006, in kWh, was (333.87, 416.13).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 30 - 1 = 29

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 29 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99. So we have T = 2.462

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.462\frac{91.5}{\sqrt{30}} = 41.13

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 375 - 41.13 = 333.87 kWh

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 375 + 41.13 = 416.13 kWh

The 98% confidence interval for the mean usage in the March quarter of 2006, in kWh, was (333.87, 416.13).

Answer:

39 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is calculated by the expression given as:

Area = bh/2

where b is the base and h is the height.

We calculate as follows:

270 = b (15) / 2

b = 36

hypotenuse = sqrt ( 15^2 + 36^2 ) = 39

Answer:

The two numbers are -4 and -10.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=-14

x-y=6

----------

2x=-8

x=-8/2

x=-4

-4+y=-14

y=-14-(-4)=-14+4=-10

x=-4, y=-10.
