Answer: We are given:

The height h of a guardrail = 106 centimeters

Absolute deviation =  7 centimeters

The absolute value inequality is |x-106|\leq 7

To find the acceptable heights of a guardrail , we add and subtract absolute deviation(7) from the mean height(106)

The acceptable range of height is:

106 + 7 = 113

106 - 7 = 99

Acceptable heights are defined by

99 cm \leq h\leq 113cm

Therefore, the acceptable range of heights of a guardrail are 99 cm to 113 cm.

Hello, I really struggle with math and I was wondering if you could help me with the following problem please? It will be much a
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3x + 2(4 + 6x) = 113

3x + (4 * 2 + 6x * 2) = 113

3x + (8 + 12x) = 113

Reorder the terms:

8 + 3x + 12x = 113

Combine like terms: 3x + 12x = 15x

8 + 15x = 113

Solving

8 + 15x = 113

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 15x = 113 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 15x = 113 + -8

15x = 113 + -8

Combine like terms: 113 + -8 = 105

15x = 105

Divide each side by '15'.

x = 7

Simplifying

x = 7

Which is an exponential growth function f(x)=6(0.25)x<br> f(x)=0.25(5.25)x
Vikki [24]

Answer: Second Option

f(x)=0.25(5.25)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth functions have the following form:

f(x) = a(b)^x

Where a is the main coefficient, b is the base and x is the exponent.

For this type of functions the base b must always be greater than 1. Otherwise it would be an exponential decay function

Among the options given, the only function whose base is greater than 1 is the second option:

f(x)=0.25(5.25)^x
