You have to do a histogram here:

<span>11 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04
12 sec: 5 people: probability is 5/50 = 1/10 = 0.1
13 sec: 8 people: probability is 8/50 = 4/25 = 0.16
</span>14 sec: 10 people: probability is 10/50 = 1/5 = 0.2
15 sec: 21 people: probability is 21/50 = 2.38
16 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04
17 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04

Use f’( x ) = lim With h ---&gt; 0 [f( x + h ) - f ( x )]/h to find the derivative at x for the given function. 5-x²
beks73 [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The derivative of the function f(x) is:

                 f'(x)=-2x

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as:

f(x)=5-x^2

We have:

f(x+h)=5-(x+h)^2\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=5-(x^2+h^2+2xh)

( Since,

(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab )

Hence, we get:

f(x+h)=5-x^2-h^2-2xh

Also, by using the definition of f'(x) i.e.

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

Hence, on putting the value in the formula:

f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5-x^2-h^2-2xh-(5-x^2)}{h}\\\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5-x^2-h^2-2xh-5+x^2}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{-h^2-2xh}{h}\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{-h^2}{h}+\dfrac{-2xh}{h}\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} -h-2x\\\\i.e.\ on\ putting\ the\ limit\ we\ obtain:\\\\f'(x)=-2x

      Hence, the derivative of the function f(x) is:

          f'(x)=-2x

How dose using scientific Notion help compare when comparing with very small very large numbers
rewona [7]
Scientific notation is just a way to simplify a very large and oftentimes complicated number to a smaller one with the exact same value. For example, if I am given the number 1,656,000 to simplify using scientific notation, I would write it out as 1.656 x 10^6

The value at the end is exactly the same as the number I started out with. It is just written differently.

PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLEST
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The first one (Cedric is correct because he used the inverse of subtraction and added 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First....I'll do it my way

z - 4.5 = -1.5

Add 4.5 on both sides

z - 4.5 + 4.5 = -1.5 + 4.5

z = 3

This should be our answer.....and so who did it right?

Cedric did

Which is the true statement?

Cedric is correct because he used the inverse of subtraction and added 4.5

Hope this helped!
