Let g(x)=2x and h(x)=x^2+4 find the value. (hog)(a)

1 answer:

8 0

In short, (h o g)(a) is just h( g(a) ).

so what we can do is simply get g(a) first and then plug that in h(x).

$\bf \begin{cases}
g(x)&=2x\\
h(x)&=x^2+4\\
(h\circ g)(a)&=h(~~g(a)~~)
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
g(a)=2(a)\implies g(a)=2a
\\\\\\
h(~~g(a)~~)\implies h(~~2a~~)=(2a)^2+4
\\\\\\
h(~~2a~~)=(2^2a^2)+4\implies h(~~2a~~)=4a^2+4$

Jacob transformed quadrilateral FGHJ to F'G'H'J'.

Rudik [331]

Answer:

A. Reflection across the line x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that Jacob transformed quadrilateral FGHJ to F'G'H'J'. We are asked to find which transformation Jacob used to reflect FGHJ to F'G'H'J'.

Since we know that while reflecting a figure, the line of reflection will lie between the original figure and reflected figure. Each point of the reflected figure will have the same distance from the line of reflection as the corresponding point of the original figure.

Now let us see our given choices one by one.

A. Reflection across the line x = 1.

Upon looking at point G and G' we can see that both points are equidistant (2 units) from the line x=1. Other corresponding points of both quadrilaterals are also equidistant from line x=1, therefore, Jacob used the reflection across the line x=1 to transform quadrilateral FGHJ to F'G'H'J'.

B. Reflection across the line y = 1 .

If Jacob had reflected quadrilateral across line y=1, the points of quadrilateral F'G'H'J' will lie in second and third quadrant. We can see from our graph that F'G'H'J' lies in 1st quadrant, therefore, option B is not a correct choice.

C. Reflection across the line y-axis.

If Jacob had reflected quadrilateral across y-axis, the coordinates of points of quadrilateral F'G'H'J' will be G'(1,4), H'(1,2), J'(4,0) and F'(2,5). Therefore, option B is not a correct choice.

D. Reflection across the x -axis.

If Jacob had reflected quadrilateral across x-axis, the points of quadrilateral F'G'H'J' will lie in third quadrant. We can see from our graph that F'G'H'J' lies in 1st quadrant, therefore, option D is not a correct choice.

According to a study done by Nick Wilson of Otago University Wellington, the probability a randomly selected individual will not

Lorico [155]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

From the question statement we get know that it is Binomial distribution because there are only two possible outcomes so we need to use Binomial Probability Distribution for this question.

Formula for the Binomial Probability Distribution:

P(X)= p^x q^(n-x)

Where,

C_x^n=n!/(n-x)!x! (i.e. combination)
x= total number of successes
p=probability of success (p=1-q)
q=probability of failure (q=1-p)
n=number of trials
P(X)= probability of total number of successes

Answer and explanation for each part of the question are as follow:

a.What is the probability that among 10 randomly observed individuals exactly 4 do not cover their mouth when sneezing?

Solution:

Given that

n=10

p=0.267 (because p is the probability of success which is “number of individuals not covering their mouths when sneezing” in the question)

q=1-0.267=0.733

x=4 (number of successes i.e. individuals not covering their mouths)

C_x^n=n!/(n-x)!x!=10!/(10-4)!4!=210

P(X)=C_x^n p^x q^(n-x)=210×〖(0.267)〗^4×〖0.733〗^(10-4)

P(X)=210×0.00508×0.155

P(X)=0.165465

b. What is the probability that among 10 randomly observed individuals fewer than 3 do not cover their mouth when sneezing?

Solution:

Given that

n=10

p=0.267 (because p is the probability of success which is “number of individuals not covering their mouths when sneezing” in the question)

q=1-0.267=0.733

x=3 (number of successes i.e. individuals not covering their mouths)

C_x^n=n!/(n-x)!x!=10!/(10-3)!3!=120

P(X)=C_x^n p^x q^(n-x)=120×(0.267)^3×〖0.733〗^(10-3)

P(X)=120×0.01903×0.1136

P(X)=0.25962

c. Would you be surprised if, after observing 18 individuals, fewer than half covered their mouth when sneezing? why?

Solution:

Given that

n=18

p=0.267 (because p is the probability of success which is “number of individuals not covering their mouths when sneezing” in the question)

q=1-0.267=0.733

x=9 (x is the number of successes “number of individuals not covering their mouths when sneezing”, if less than half cover their mouth then more than half will not cover), so let x=9

C_x^n=n!/(n-x)!x!=18!/(18-9)!9!=48620

P(X)=48620×(0.267)^9×〖0.733〗^(18-9)

P(X)=48620×0.00000689×0.0610

P(X)=0.020

Yes, I am surprised that probability of less than 9 individuals covering their mouth when sneezing is 0.020. Which is extremely is small.

The distribution of income tax refunds follow an approximate normal distribution with a mean of $7010 and a standard deviation o

Andrej [43]

Answer:

A refund must be above $7,139 before it is audited.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 7010, standard deviation = 43.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The empirical rule is symmetric, which means that the lowest (100-99.7)/2 = 0.15% is at least 3 standard deviations below the mean, and the upper 0.15% is at least 3 standard deviations above the mean.

Use the Empirical Rule to determine approximately above what dollar value must a refund be before it is audited.

3 standard deviations above the mean, so:

7010 + 3*43 = 7139.

A refund must be above $7,139 before it is audited.
