Replace all values of x as 4
f(4)=1/2(4)+5
f(4)=4/2+5
f(4)=2+5
f(4)=7
Hope I helped :)
You probably are interested in expressing the given equation as a quadratic equation in u, as it will make it easy to find the solutions.
Let u = x²
So,
u² = x⁴
So, the given equation can be written as:
u² - 17u + 16 = 0
Now the equation is quadratic in u and the solutions can be calculated using quadratic formula or factorization.
Answer:
The true statement about Kendra's sample is:
b) Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Average age of dogs currently alive = 4.8 years
Average ages of dogs in Kendra's sample
Week Average Age (in years)
1 3.7
2 3.8
3 4.2
4 4.1
5 3.9
6 3.9
7 4.0
Total 27.6
Mean = 3.9 (27.6/7)
b) Accuracy refers to how close Kendra's sample mean age of dogs is to the average age value as stated in the Modern Dog Magazine. While the Magazine stated an average age of 4.8 years, Kendra's sample produced a mean of 3.9 years. On the other hand, precision refers to how close Kendra's sample measurements are to each other. With a mean of 3.9 years, the sample measurements are very close to each other. Therefore, we can conclude that "Kendra's samples are precise but not accurate."
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation , then isolating the variable
your answer is x=3/4
2x+y=-4
5x+3y=-6
multiply first equaton by -5 and second by 2 then add them
-10x-5y=20
<u>10x+6y=-12 +</u>
0x+1y=8
y=8
the y value is 8
