1. A researcher collected data from car shoppers about their favorite car color. He asked 250 people about their favorite vehicl

e color and the survey revealed the following: 32% said blue, 24% said white, 20% said red, 18% said black, and 4% said silver.
(a) What percent preferred a color other than blue, white, red, black, or silver?
(3 pts: 2 for answer, 1 for showing work)



(b) How many more people said their favorite color is white compared to those who said black? (3 pts – 2 for answer, 1 for showing work)


(c) Draw and label a circle graph showing the responses to the survey. Be sure to include a section for “Other”. Be sure your circle graph is labeled, and the percentages are in proportion to the whole. (2 pts – 1 for correctly showing percentages and 1 for labeling)

Answer:

A)2%  B)15 more   *DID NOT DO C*

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

32+24+20+18+4   (add up the percentages)

=98%

100-98   (find what percentage of people did NOT like the given colors)

=2%

B)

24% of 250  (we want people, not percent)

=60

18% of 250 (Again, people, not percent)

=45

60-45    (we want the difference between the two=subtract)

=15  (15 more people preferred white, rather than black)

What can you say about the y-values of the two functions f(x)=-5^x +2 and g(x)=-5x^2+2?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

B) The maximum y-value of f(x) approaches 2

C) g(x) has the largest possible y-value

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-5^x+2

f(x) is an exponential function.

Lim x→∞ f(x) = Lim x→∞ (-5^x+2) = -5^(∞)+2 = -∞+2→ Lim x→∞ f(x) = -∞

Lim x→ -∞ f(x) = Lim x→ -∞ (-5^x+2) = -5^(-∞)+2 = -1/5^∞+2 = -1/∞+2 = 0+2→

Lim x→ -∞ f(x) = 2

Then the maximun y-value of f(x) approaches 2


g(x)=-5x^2+2

g(x) is a quadratic function. The graph is a parabola

g(x)=ax^2+bx+c

a=-5<0, the parabola opens downward and has a maximum value at

x=-b/(2a)

b=0

c=2

x=-0/2(-5)

x=0/10

x=0

The maximum value is at x=0:

g(0)=-5(0)^2+2=-5(0)+2=0+2→g(0)=2

The maximum value of g(x) is 2

How are the graphs of the reciprocal functions related to their corresponding original functions? What happens to the graphs of
sdas [7]

Answer:

We have in general that when a function has a high value, its reciprocal has a high value and vice-versa. That is the correlation between the function. When the function goes close to zero, it all depends on the sign. If the graph approaches 0 from positive values (for example sinx for small positive x), then we get that the reciprocal function is approaching infinity, namely high values of y. If this happens with negative values, we get that the y-values of the function approach minus infinity, namely they have very low y values. 1/sinx has such a point around x=0; for positive x it has very high values and for negative x it has very low values. It is breaking down at x=0 and it is not continuous.

Now, regarding how to teach it. The visual way is easy; one has to just find a simulation that makes the emphasis as the x value changes and shows us also what happens if we have a coefficient 7sinx and 1/(7sinx). If they have a more verbal approach to learning, it would make sense to focus on the inverse relationship between a function and its reciprocal... and also put emphasis on the importance of the sign of the function when the function is near 0. Logical mathematical approach: try to make calculations for large values of x and small values of x, introduce the concept of a limit of a function (Where its values tend to) or a function being continuous (smooth).

Mario is setting up a new tent during a camping trip. The tent came with 7 feet of rope. The instructions are to use 34.5 inches
nevsk [136]

Answer: There are 6 sections of  8\frac{1}{4}\ inches  of rope Mario can cut from the rope .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of the rope for the tent = 7 feet

As we know that

1\ feet=12\ inches\\\\7\ feet=12\times 7=84\ inches

Length of rope is used to tie a tarp on top of the tent = 34.5 inches

Remaining length of rope is given by

84-34.5=49.5\ inches

According to question, the remaining rope should be cut into

8\frac{1}{4}\ inches\\\\=\frac{33}{4}\ inches

So, Number of  8\frac{1}{4}\ inches sections of rope Mario can cut from the rope is given by

\frac{49.5}{8\frac{1}{4}}\\\\=\frac{49.5}{\frac{33}{4}}\\\\=\frac{49.5\times 4}{33}\\\\=6

Hence, there are 6 sections of 8\frac{1}{4}\ inches rope Mario can cut from the rope .
