In a number line, 2-2=0 and then subtract 1 which gives you -1 as you answer.

2+(-3) = -1

2- 3 = -1

-1=-1

The question is why though ?

It is because you keep the negative exponent which is with the biggest number. So this is how its look like +2 -3, so 3 is bigger then 2 so for that reason you keep the negative sign.

I hope that's help:)

Why is isolating the y-variable to graph is important

dusya [7]

Answer:

It is the easiest way to graph an equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolating the y variable is also slope-intercept form.

Slope intercept form is the easiest form to use when graphing.

y = mx + b

m is the slope, b is the y-intercept.

it makes it way easier to graph an equation when it is in slope intercept form.

I hope that helps! =)

For each of the functions below, indicate whether the function is onto, one-to-one, neither orboth. If the function is not onto

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

$f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z$ is one to one mapping, it is not onto mapping

Step-by-step explanation:

$f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z\\ f_{1} (x) = x^{3}$

f₁(x) is one to one mapping

Let $x, y \epsilon Z$

f₁(x) = f₁(y):

x₁³ = y₁³

f₁(x) is not onto mapping

Example: If f₁(x) = 7,

x₁³ = 7

$x_{1} = \sqrt[3]{7}$

x₁ is not an element of Z

$f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z$ is one to one mapping, it is not onto mapping

)) Matt's bill for breakfast at a restaurant was $91. He left an 18% tip. What was the total

gladu [14]

Answer:

$107.38

Step-by-step explanation:

$91 (the price) multiplied by the percentage 18% (91 x 18 = 1630) (1638/100=16.38 [the tip})

$91 (th original price) + 15.38 (the tip) = $108.38 (final price)

A nurse collected data about the average birth weight of babies in the hospital that month. Her data is shown using the dot plot

mixer [17]

Answer:

The values of the box-plot are: B = {8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.9}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

X Frequency

8 0

8.1 0

8.2 2

8.3 2

8.4 2

8.5 3

8.6 0

8.7 1

8.8 0

8.9 1

9 0

So, the actual data is:

S = {8.2 , 8.2 , 8.3 , 8.3 , 8.4 , 8.4 , 8.5 , 8.5 , 8.5 , 8.7 , 8.9 }

A boxplot, also known as a box and whisker plot is a method to demonstrate the distribution of a data-set based on the following 5 number summary,

Minimum (shown at the bottom of the chart)
First Quartile (shown by the bottom line of the box)
Median (or the second quartile) (shown as a line in the center of the box)
Third Quartile (shown by the top line of the box)
Maximum (shown at the top of the chart).

The data set is arranged in ascending order.

The minimum value is, Min. = 8.2

The lower quartile is,

$[\frac{n+1}{4}]^{th}\ obs.=[\frac{11+1}{4}]^{th}\ obs.=3^{rd }\ obs. =8.3$ ,

Q₁ = 8.3.

The median value is,

$[\frac{n+1}{2}]^{th}\ obs.=[\frac{11+1}{2}]^{th}\ obs.=6^{th}\ obs.=8.4$

Median = 8.4

The upper quartile is,

$[\frac{3(n+1)}{4}]^{th}\ obs.=[\frac{3(11+1)}{4}]^{th}\ obs.=9^{th }\ obs. =8.5$ ,

Q₃ = 8.5.

The maximum value is, Max. = 8.9.

So, the values of the box-plot are: B = {8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.9}.
