Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 6$

$g(x)= \frac{1}{x+3}$

(fog)(x) = f(g(x))

Plug in g(x) in f(x)

We plug in 1/x+3 in the place of x in f(x)

$f(g(x))= f(\frac{1}{x+3})= (\frac{1}{x+3})^2 + 5(\frac{1}{x+3}) + 6$

To simplify it we take LCD

LCD is (x+3)(x+3)

$\frac{1}{(x+3)(x+3)}+5\frac{1*(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+3)}+\frac{6(x+3)(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+3)}$

$\frac{1}{x^2+6x+9}+\frac{(5x+15)}{x^2+6x+9}+\frac{6x^2+36x+54}{x^2+6x+9}$

All the denominators are same so we combine the numerators

$\frac{1+5x+15+6x^2+36x+54}{x^2+6x+9}$

$\frac{6x^2+41x+70}{x^2+6x+9}$

Option D is correct

There are 42 students in an elementary statistics class. On the basis of years of experience, the instructor knows that the time

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

A) 0.99413

B) 0.00022

Step-by-step explanation:

A) First of all let's find the total grading time from 6:50 P.M to 11:00 P.M.:

Total grading time; X = 11:00 - 6:50 = 4hours 10minutes = 250 minutes

Now since we are given an expected value of 5 minutes, the mean grading time for the whole population would be:

μ = n*μ_s ample = 42 × 5 = 210 minutes

While the standard deviation for the population would be:

σ = √nσ_sample = √(42 × 6) = 15.8745 minutes

To find the z-score, we will use the formula;

z = (x - μ)/σ

Thus;

z = (250 - 210)/15.8745

z = 2.52

From the z-distribution table attached, we have;

P(Z < 2.52) ≈ 0.99413

B) solving this is almost the same as in A above, the only difference is an additional 10 minutes to the time.

Thus, total time is now 250 + 10 = 260 minutes

Similar to the z-formula in A above, we have;

z = (260 - 210)/15.8745

z = 3.15

P(Z > 3.15) = 0.00022

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this

Firlakuza [10]

The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ after a time, t, is given by:

$N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{ \frac{1}{2} }}$

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

$0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\ \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5$

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
