Age is the x values and height is the y values. In order to be a function, there can be no repeating x values...they all have to be different. You can have repeating y values, just not the x ones. So look at all the x columns (ages) and u will notice that the only one that does not have any repeating x values is Hal's results....no x's are the same and it is therefore, a function.

Answer: Hal

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation from a set of inputs to a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output is called function.

From the given tables, we can see that only Hal's data can height be considered a function of age because each height is is output for exact one input. No two ages have same height.

Only data represented by Hal can be said a function.

In Zelda's results

For age 12 there are two heights, 63 an d64

In Maya's results

For age 12 there are more than one heights.

In Jason's results

For age 12 there are two heights,50 and 57

Thus they cannot be said a function.

Answer:

34.1

Step-by-step explanation:

8 4/5 is not needed. The other two will given you the answer.

Area = 1/2 * b * h

b = 12 2/5 = 12.4

h = 5 1/2 = 5.5

Area = 1/2 * 12.4 * 5.5

Area = 34.1 square feet.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions is (0.5291, 0.6429).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence interval $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

In a collection of experiments under the same conditions, 44 of 75 mice test positive for lymphadenopathy. This means that $n = 75$ and $\pi = \frac{44}{75} = 0.586$ .

Compute a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions.

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.586 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.586*0.414}{75}} = 0.5291$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.586 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.586*0.414}{75}} = 0.6429$

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of mice that will test positive under similar conditions is (0.5291, 0.6429).
