jay thinks that the inequality k< 3 implies the inequality k squared < 9 but val thinks otherwise. Who is right and why

Mathematics

Answer:

  Val is right

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the solutions to k < 3 is k = -4. When you square that, you get ...

  k² = (-4)² = 16

which is not less than 9.

_____

k < 3 and k² < 9 will have the same solution set for |k| < 3, but their solution sets will differ for k ≤ -3.

When performing operations on inequalities, one needs to be aware of the order preserving/changing effects of the operation. Whether squaring a value preserves order or not depends on the relative magnitudes:

  • 2 > 1; 2² > 1²
  • -1 < 1; (-1)² = 1²
  • -2 < 1; (-2)² > 1²
  • -2 < -1; (-2)² > (-1)²

A TV show host asks his viewers to visit his website and respond to an online poll.
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The answer to this question is D: None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

From the example given in the question, this is a bad way of data sampling. The example in the question is a typical Voluntary response sample. In this type of sampling, the researcher creates a request as the case may be in the example through television, and ask for members of a population to join. Thus people then choose to be part of the sample or not. In this type of sampling, the respondents tend to have alike opinion in contrast to the rest of the population. This therefore makes voluntary response sample kind of bias.

OLga [1]

Answer: 1 1/2 yards of yarn

Step-by-step explanation: For this problem, we will simply be multiply 1/2 yard by 3 to get the amount of yard that Ahlam will need.

1/2 x 3/1 = 3/2 or 1 1/2 yards of yarn. Basically you multiply the top of the fractions first (1 x 3) = 3 Then, you multiply the bottom of the fractions second  (2 x 1) = 2    (3/2 or 1 1/2)
