Answer:

  • a) 3
  • b) 6
  • c) 9
  • d) the outputs are 3 times as far apart as the inputs

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) "x" in considered to be the input to the function f(x). The variable(s) in parentheses as part of the function name are the inputs. The function value itself is the output.

That is, for an input (x-value) of 0, the output (f(0)) is 5. For an input of 1, the output (f(1)) is 8. These input values (0 and 1) are 1 unit apart: 1 - 0 = 1. The corresponding output values are 3 units apart: 8 - 5 = 3.

(b) Inputs -1 and 1 are 2 units apart (1-(-1)=2). The corresponding output values, 2 and 8, are 6 units apart. (8-2=6)

(c) Inputs 0 and 3 are 3 units apart. The corresponding output values, 5 and 14, are 9 units apart.

(d) The ratio of output differences to input differences can be seen to be ...

... 3/1 = 6/2 = 9/3 = 3

Output differences are 3 times input differences.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

These ratios are constant everywhere, so the function is considered to be "linear." The ratio is the "slope" of the line you see when the function is graphed.

True [87]

Answer:

Null hypothesis: ∪ =  No possible child abuse or neglect

Alternative hypothesis: Uₐ = Possible child abuse or neglect

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis: ∪ =  No possible child abuse or neglect

Alternative hypothesis: Uₐ = Possible child abuse or neglect

A type I error occurs when you reject the null hypothesis when it is true. In this situation, a type I error occurs when you conclude on possible child neglect or abuse and place the child in protective custody

A type II error occurs when you accept the null hypothesis when it is false. In this instance, a type II error occurs when you conclude on no possible child abuse or neglect when there is and fail to remove the child from the home.

In this case, the type II error is the more serious error. Failure to remove the child when there is possible child abuse or neglect will lead to more detrimental effect. Although, the type I error is also serious, it is not so detrimental as the type II error.
