ANSWER

$f(x) = - \frac{1}{3} |x|$

EXPLANATION

The parent function is

$f(x)= |x|$

This function has been reflected in the x-axis and stretched horizontally.

The new equation is in the form:

$f(x)= - a |x|$

The point, (3,-1) must satisfy this equation,

$- 1 = - a | 3|$

$3a = 1$

This implies that,

$a = \frac{1}{3}$

Hence the correct equation is,

$f(x) = - \frac{1}{3} |x|$

. XYZ has vertices X (–5, 2), Y (0, –4), and Z (3, 3). What are the vertices of the image of X’Y’Z’ under the translation (x, y)

Katen [24]

Answer:

X' = (2, -3)

Y' = (7, -9)

Z' = (10, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the translation of each point substitute the x and y with the the numbers

eg; X ( -5,2) the x is 5 and the y is 2

so -5 + 7 = 2 (the x value)

2 - 5 = -3 ( the y value)

assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected 15 use them in meetings or classes if 15 adult smartphones are ra

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The probability that at least 4 of them use their smartphones is 0.1773.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected 15% use them in meetings or classes.

Also, 15 adult smartphones are randomly selected.

Let X = <em>Number of adults who use their smartphones</em>

The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;

$P(X = r) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; n = 0,1,2,3,.......$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 15 adult smartphones

r = number of success = at least 4

p = probability of success which in our question is the % of adults

who use them in meetings or classes, i.e. 15%.

So, X ~ Binom(n = 15, p = 0.15)

Now, the probability that at least 4 of them use their smartphones is given by = P(X $\geq$ 4)

P(X $\geq$ 4) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1) - P(X = 2) - P(X = 3)

= $1- \binom{15}{0}\times 0.15^{0} \times (1-0.15)^{15-0}-\binom{15}{1}\times 0.15^{1} \times (1-0.15)^{15-1}-\binom{15}{2}\times 0.15^{2} \times (1-0.15)^{15-2}-\binom{15}{3}\times 0.15^{3} \times (1-0.15)^{15-3}$

= $1- (1\times 1\times 0.85^{15})-(15\times 0.15^{1} \times 0.85^{14})-(105 \times 0.15^{2} \times 0.85^{13})-(455 \times 0.15^{3} \times 0.85^{12})$

= <u>0.1773</u>
