If g (x) =x 1/x-2 and h(x) = 4 – x, what is the value of (g*h)(-3)?

1 answer:

4 0

G(x) = (x + 1)/(x - 2) and h(x) = 4 - x
(g * h)(x) = (x + 1)(4 - x)/(x - 2)
(g * h)(-3) = (-3 + 1)(4 - (-3))/(-3 - 2) = (-2)(4 + 3)/(-5) = (-2)(7)/(-5) = -14/-5 = 2.8

Here are the prices of five new pairs of hockey skates, in dollars: 59, 60, 65, 99, 175. The standard deviation is about $49. If

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The standard deviation of the new data will be increased as compared to the previous standard deviation of the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prices are given to be : 59, 60, 65, 99, 175

Standard deviation = $49

Now, if we add or subtract any constant value to each of the terms then the standard deviation remains unchanged.

But, we add a new price in the given data that is $450

$\text{New standard deviation = }\sqrt{\frac{\sum (\bar{x}-x_i)^2}{n}}\\\\\bar{x}\text{ is the mean of data after adding 450 and}\\x_i\text{ are the price values of the sample data}$

Hence, Standard deviation is calculated to be 139.5

Therefore, the standard deviation of the new data will be increased as compared to the previous standard deviation of the data.

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite arithmetic sequence}\\\\
S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ a_n=n^{th}~value\\
----------\\
\stackrel{least}{a_1}=128\\\\
\stackrel{greatest}{a_n}=172
\end{cases}$

$\bf S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(128~+~172)\implies S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(300)\implies S_n=150n
\\\\\\
\textit{but we also know that sum of all interior angles is }180(n-2)
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{S_n}=\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{180(n-2)}=150n
\\\\\\
180n-360=150n\implies 30n=360\implies n=\cfrac{360}{30}\implies n=12$
