Edison is a hard-working college junior. On Saturday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 100 practice problems for

his chemistry course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem. Time Total Problems Answered 8:00 AM 0 9:00 AM 40 10:00 AM 70 11:00 AM 90 Noon 100 Use the table to answer the following questions. The marginal, or additional, gain from Edison’s second hour of work, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM, is problems. The marginal gain from Edison’s fourth hour of work, from 11:00 AM to noon, is problems. Later, the teaching assistant in Edison’s chemistry course gives him some advice. "Based on past experience," the teaching assistant says, "working on 35 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour." For simplicity, assume students always cover the same number of pages during each hour they spend reading. Given this information, in order to use his 4 hours of study time to get the best exam score possible, how many hours should he have spent working on problems, and how many should he have spent reading?
a. 1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading
b. 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading
c. 3 hours working on problems, 1 hour reading
d. 4 hours working on problems, 0 hours reading

Answer:

Only C is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

To test whether a graph is a function you use the vertical line test.

If you can place a vertical line anywhere on the plane (in the domain of the "function" to be tested) and it intersects the curve at more than one point, the curve is not a function.

We see with A, wherever we put the vertical line it intersects twice.

With B, it intersects infinitely many times.

C is a function because wherever we put the vertical line, it only intersects once.

D is a function because it intersects twice providing we do not put it on the "tip" of the parabola.

The mathematical reasoning behind this is that a function must be well-defined, that is it must send every x-value to one specific y-value. There can be no confusion about where the function's input is going. If you look at graph B and I ask you what is f(3)? Is it 1? 2? 3? ... Who knows, it's not well-defined and so it's not a function. However if I ask you about C, whichever input value for x I give you, you can tell me to which y-value it gets mapped/sent to.

The fair spinner shown in the diagram above is spun.
Katena32 [7]

Unable to provide a definitive answer due to lack of diagram.

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiples of 6:

Multiples of 6 are numbers obtained when 6 is multiplied by an integer. Such as

(6*1) = 6, (6*2)=12, (6*3) = 18..... and so on.

Probability is calculated by finding the ratio of the required outcome and total possible outcomes.

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(multiple of 6) = number of multiples of 6 / total number of possible outcomes

If number of 6 multiples = 5 and

Total number of faces in the spinner = 20

Then :

P(multiple of 6) = 5/20 = 1/4
