<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

C) They both have the same y-intercept.

<h2>Why?</h2>

In order to find the correct option, we need to find the equation of the function g(x), and then, compare its y-intercept with the y-intercept of the f(x) function.

So,

- Finding the equation of the g(x):

Calculating the slope of the function, using the first two points (-1,8) and (1,0), we have:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{0-8}{1-(-1)}=\frac{-8}{2}=-4

Now, calculating the value of "b" using the first point (-1,8)  and the slope of the function, we have:

y=mx+b

y=-x+b

8=-4(-1)+b

b=4

So, the equation of g(x) is:

y=-4x+4

- Comparing the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x):

Finding the y-intercept of f(x),  by making "x" equal to 0, we have:

y=x+4\\\\y=4

We have that the function f(x) has its y-intercept at "y" equal to 4.

Finding the y-intercept of g(x), by making "x" equal to 0, we have:

y=-4x+4

y=-4*(0)+4

y=4

We have that the function g(x) has its y-intercept at "y" equal to 4.

Hence, we have that both functions have their y-intercepts at the same point, so, the correct option is:

C) They both have the same y-intercept.

Have a nice day!

Answer:

D) The relationship between y-intercepts cannot be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given two different functions f(x) and g(x). Now we need to find about what can be determined about their y-intercepts. Then match with the correct choice from the given choices:

A) The function f(x) has a higher y-intercept.

B) The function g(x) has a higher y-intercept.

C) They both have the same y-intercept.

D) The relationship between y-intercepts cannot be determined.

We know that y-intercept is the y of function value when x=0.

In the table of g(x), we don't see any point that has x=0

So we can't find the y-intercept for g(x)

Hence correct choice is :

D) The relationship between y-intercepts cannot be determined.

Answer:

The test statistic is z=2.5.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that more than 10% of the 16 ounce cups are underfilled.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that more than 10% of the 16 ounce cups are underfilled.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi=0.1\\\\H_a:\pi>0.1

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample has a size n=100.

The sample proportion is p=0.18.

p=X/n=18/100=0.18

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.1*0.9}{100}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.001}=0.03

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.18-0.1-0.5/100}{0.03}=\dfrac{0.075}{0.03}=2.5

This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

P-value=P(z>2.5)=0.006

As the P-value (0.006) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that more than 10% of the 16 ounce cups are underfilled.
