Jonah is looking at some information for the obstacle course he is interested in completing. The x-coordinate is the number of t

he obstacle, while the y-coordinate is the average time to complete the obstacle, measured in minutes.
(1, 7.25), (2, 7.975), (3, 8.7725), (4, 9.64975)

Help Jonah use an explicit formula to find the average time he will need for the 9th obstacle.

A.f(9) = 7.25(1.1)9; f(9) = 17.095

B.f(9) = 1.1(7.25)8; f(9) = 8396469

C.f(9) = 1.1(7.25)9; f(9) = 60874407

D.f(9) = 7.25(1.1)8; f(9) = 15.541

Answer:

D. y[9]=15.5410

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following observation:

Notice that the y-value differences between consecutives obstacles are:

(y-value from obstacule 2) - (y-value from obstacule 1)= 7.975 - 7.25 = 0.725

which is equal to:

(y-value from obstacule 1) / 10 = 7.25 / 10 = 0.725

So, an equation can be written as follows:

y[i+1]=y[i]+y[i]/10 let's find the other values:

y[2]=7.25+(7.25/10)= 7.975

y[3]=7.975+(7.975/10)= 8.7725

y[4]=8.7725+(8.7725/10)= 9.64975

Notice that we obtained the same y-values using the formula as the ones reported. So using the same formulas we can calculate:

y[9]=15.5410

In conclusion, the general equation is y[i+1]=y[i]+y[i]/10 with a starting point (1, 7.25) and y[9]=15.5410. So the answer is D.

Suppose that you draw two cards from a deck. After drawing the first card, you do not put the first card back in the deck. What

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.05882.

Step-by-step explanation:

A deck of cards have 52 cards, 13 cards of each suit.

We are drawing two cards without replacement.

We need to find the probability of getting a diamond as the first card.

Favorable outcomes are 13 and total number of outcomes are 52.

Thus this probability is $\frac{13}{52} = \frac{1}{4}$ .

Now for the next draw we again want to pick a diamond card.

Favorable outcomes are 12 and total number of leftover cards are 51.

Thus this probability is $\frac{12}{51}$ .

Now the probability that both cards are diamonds is $\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{12}{51}$ = $\frac{3}{51} = \frac{1}{17}$ = 0.0588235 ≈ 0.05882

How do you translate the graph of f(x) = x3 left 4 units and down 2 units? Identify the equation of the graph

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$f(x)=x^3$

The translation of a function is defined as

$g(x)=f(x+a)+b$

If a>0, then the graph of f(x) shift a units left and if a<0, then the graph of f(x) shift a units right.

If b>0, then the graph of f(x) shift b units up and if b<0, then the graph of f(x) shift b units down.

It is given that the graph of f(x) shifts 4 units left and 2 units down. So, a=4 and b=-2.

$g(x)=f(x+4)+(-2)$

$g(x)=(x+4)^3-2$ $[\because f(x)=x^3]$

$y=(x+4)^3-2$

Therefore option B is correct.
