Consider the function graphed below.
1 answer:
Answer:
B. (see attached)
Step-by-step explanation:
All the answers agree that the function is x² for x < 1. Where they disagree is in the slope and y-intercept of the linear portion for x > 1.
The line has a slope that is less than 1 unit of rise for 1 unit of run, so will not be selections A or C, which have slopes of 3.
The y-intercept is clearly positive if we extend the line to the left until it reaches the y-axis. This eliminates selection D from consideration, leaving only selection B.

Since eleven is odd, there must be a centra element, which in this case is the sixth. So, we can write 11 consecutive integers as
Since the arithmetic mean is the sum of the values, divided by how many they are, we have
So, the mean of 11 consecutive integers is the 6th integer.
