After 8 points are added to each score in a sample, the mean is found to be M= 40. What was the value for the original mean

Answer:

The value for the original mean = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the original value of the mean.

Let the number of samples be n

Mathematically;

mean = Total value/n

Now, we added 8 to each of values; total value added = 8 * n = 8n

Now, for the new mean of 40; we have

(Total value + 8n)/n = 40

Total value + 8n = 40n

Total value = 40n -8n

Total value = 32n

kindly recall from the beginning of the solution;

mean = Total value/n

mean = 32n/n

mean = 32

So the original value of the mean is 32

What are the coordinates of the turning point for the function f(x) = (x - 1)3 - 3? A. (-1, -3)
Naddik [55]
ANSWER

The turning point is

(1,-3).


EXPLANATION


The function given to us is

f(x) = (x - 1) ^{3}  - 3

At turning point,
f  '(x) = 0

So we need to differentiate the given function and equate it to zero.



We using the chain rule of differentiation, we obtain,
f '(x) =3 (x - 1) ^{2}

We equate this to zero to obtain,




3 (x - 1) ^{2}   = 0



We divide through by 3.


(x - 1) ^{2}   = 0

We solve for x to get,

x - 1 = 0


x = 1


We substitute this x-value in to the function to obtain the corresponding y-value of the turning point.





f(1) = (1- 1) ^{3}  - 3




f(1) = 0 - 3


f(1) = - 3

Therefore the turning point is


(1,-3)

C is the correct answer.
