Paola had 13 pounds of coffee beans to divide among 6 people. How many pounds of coffee should each person receive?

which statements are true about the graph of the function f(x) = 6x – 4 x2? check all that apply. the vertex form of the functio

Brut [27]

Answer:

The vertex of the function is the point $(-3,-13)$

The graph increase over the interval--------> (-3,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=6x-4+x^{2}$

1) Convert to vertex form

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$f(x)+4=x^{2}+6x$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$f(x)+4+9=x^{2}+6x+9$

$f(x)+13=x^{2}+6x+9$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$f(x)+13=(x+3)^{2}$

$f(x)=(x+3)^{2}-13$ -----> function in vertex form

2) Find the vertex

The vertex of the function is the point $(-3,-13)$

3) Find the axis of symmetry

we know that

In a vertical parabola, the axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

The x-coordinate of the vertex in this problem is equal to $x=-3$

therefore

the equation of the axis of symmetry is $x=-3$

4) Find the increase-decrease intervals

The graph increase over the interval--------> (-3,∞)

The graph decrease over the interval--------> (-∞,-3)

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

5) Find the x-intercepts of the function

we know that

the x-intercepts are the values of x when the value of the function is equal to zero

In this problem the x-intercepts are

$(-6.61,0)$ and $(0.61,0)$

so

The function cross the x-axis twice

What does AD equal? PICTURE INCLUDED* Triangle congruence and similarity.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

AD = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the two triangles are similar by the SSS (side side side) postulate, the triangles share the same ratios when it comes to their sides.

We know the values for lines DB, EB and CB, therefore we can solve for AB, and subtract DB to find AD

We can solve the problem by solving for x:

$\frac{x}{32} =\frac{21}{24}$

Cross multiply.

$24x = 672$

Simplify.

$x=28$

Subtract the value of DB to find AD.

$28-21=7$

$AD=7$

The table shows numbers with the ratio x : y? Find the missing number?

prisoha [69]

X| 1 | 15 | 225 |
y| 4 | ? | 900 |

$\dfrac{y}{x}=const.$

therefore

[tex]\dfrac{4}{1}=4;\ \dfrac{900}{225}=4;\ \dfrac{?}{15}=4\to?=60[\tex]

Answer: ? = 60

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line. He must recalibrate his machines

storchak [24]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is $H_o: \mu = 4$ .

The alternate hypothesis is $H_a: \mu \neq 4$

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line.

This means that the null hypothesis is that they are 4.00 cm long, that is:

$H_o: \mu = 4$

At the alternate hypothesis we test if it is different. So

$H_a: \mu \neq 4$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 4$

After sampling 196 randomly selected bolts off the assembly line, he calculates the sample mean to be 4.14 cm.

This means that $n = 196, X = 4.14$

He knows that the population standard deviation is 0.83 cm.

This means that $\sigma = 0.83$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{4.14 - 4}{\frac{0.83}{\sqrt{196}}}$

$z = 2.36$

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability that the sample mean is different by at least 4.14 - 4 = 0.14 from the target value, which is P(|z| > 2.36), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of z = -2.36.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.36 has a pvalue of 0.0091

2*0.0091 = 0.0182

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.
