Would a teaspoon be a good way to measure the capacity of a milk carton

No, a teaspoon is too small to measure the capacity of a milk carton. You would use a quart to measure the capacity of a gallon.

Hope this helps :)

Many containers and cartons are measured in millimeters; a teaspoon is traditionally 5 mL. So as a unit to measure capacity: Yes, they would be good.

However in a 2 liter bottle (common size) there are 2000/5 = 400 teaspoons.
While this is easy enough to write on a label- indeed, soft cans are often 355 mL, so there is no real difference bar of that unit- it is extremely difficult to measure out 400 teaspoons accuralty. As a way to fill that capacity (i.e. "measure it out"): No they are terrible. <span />

the function f(x)= sqrt x is translated left 5 units and up 3 units to create the function g(x). what is the domain of g(x)?

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

x ≥ -5

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a translation to left c units, we write " x + c " in the function, and

If we have a translation to right c units, we write " x - c" in the function

If we have vertical translation up b units, we "add b to the function", and

If we have vertical translation down b units, we "subtract b to the function"

The parent function is $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$

Since translation left 5 units and up 3 units, we can write:

$f(x)=\sqrt{x+5} + 3$

The domain is affected by the square root sign and we know the number under the square root CANNOT be negative, so we can say:

x + 5 ≥ 0

x ≥ -5

This is the domain.

Answer:

a)= 2

b) 6.324

c) P= 0.1217

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The mean of the sampling distribution of X`1- X`2 denoted by ux`-x` = u1-u2 is equal to the difference between population means i.e = 2 ( given in the question)

b) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of X`1- X`2 ( standard error of X`1- X`2) denoted by σ_X`1- X`2 is given by

σ_X`1- X`2 = √σ²/n1 +σ²/n2

Var ( X`1- X`2) = Var X`1 + Var X`2 = σ²/n1 +σ²/n2

σ_X`1- X`2 =√20 +20 = 6.324

if the populations are normal the sampling distribution X`1- X`2 , regardless of sample sizes , will be normal with mean u1-u2 and variance σ²/n1 +σ²/n2.

Where as Z is normally distributed with mean zero and unit variance.

If we take X`1- X`2= 0 and u1-u2= 2 and standard deviation of the sampling distribution = 6.324 then

Z= 0-2/ 6.342= -0.31625

P(-0.31625<z<0)= 0.1217

The probability would be 0.1217

damaskus [11]

Hi there,

So lets look at this problem. Ron has 20 pennies. Pam has 20 pennies. If Ron has 4 groups each group will have 5 pennies to add up to 20. Pam will have 5 groups and each group will have 4 pennies to add up to 20.

Therefore Ron will have more pennies in his group.
