Scientist cindy Grade has developed a new thermometer. Unlike the thermometer developed by Gabriel Fahrenheit were 32°F marks th

e freezing point in water and 212°F marks the boiling point, Dr. Grades's thermometer reads 0Degreez jeep for freezing point and 150° G for the boiling point. Write a formula that expresses the relationship between the grade scale (G) and the Fahrenheit scale (F). Do the scales ever agree? If so, at what temperature reading?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two thermometers developed by cindy Grade and Gabriel Fahrenheit are shown in the attached photo

Let x = a certain temperature reading on the Gabriel Fahrenheit's thermometer

Let y = a corresponding temperature reading on the cindy Grade's thermometer

Interpolating the temperatures, it becomes

(212 - 32)/(212 - x) = (150 - 0)/(150 - y)

(212 - 32)(150 - y) = 150(212 - x)

180(150 - y) = 31800 - 150x

2700 - 180y = 31800 - 150x

180y - 150x = 31800 - 27000

180y - 150x = 31800 - 27000

180y - 150x = 4800

The scales will agree at a common reading. This is achieved by making x to equal y. Therefore

180x - 150x = 4800

30x = 4800

x = 4800/30 = 160

At a reading of 160, both scales will agree

7. Identify a horizontal or vertical stretch or compression of the function f(x)=√x by observing the equation of the function g(
Effectus [21]

It is a vertical stretch.

<h3>What is functions?</h3>

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively. Initially, functions represented the idealized relationship between two changing quantities.

Given

To solve this problem you must apply the procedure shown below:

1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above:

f(x) = √x

2. And you have the function g(x) = √3x

3. By definition, if you have the function y = ax and |a| > 1 it is a vertical stretch.

4. Therefore, you have that:

|a| = √3

√3 > 1

Therefore the answer is: It is a vertical stretch.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

2.) 0.10 (3.) 0.10 (4.) 2.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

x p(x)

0 0.12

1 0.18

2 0.30

3 0.15

4

5 0.10

6 0.05

X : __0__ 1 ___ 2 ___ 3 _____ 4 ____ 5 ____ 6

p(x):0.12_0.18_0.30_0.15__0.10___0.10 ___0.05

Σ of p(x) = 1

(0.12 + 0.18 + 0.30 + 0.15 + x + 0.10 + 0.05) = 1

0.9 + x = 1

x = 1 - 0.9

x = 0.1

2.)

P(x = 4) = 0.10

3.)

P(x = 5) = 0.10

4.)

Σ(x * p(x)) :

(0*0.12) + (1*0.18) + (2*0.3) + (3*0.15) + (4*0.1) + (5*0.1) + (6*0.05) = 2.43
