Answer:

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

   City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. City A

Step-by-step explanation:

City A:

Population = 123,000

Violent crimes = 185

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

V_{100k} = \frac{185*100,000}{123,000} \\V_{100k} = 150

City B:

Population = 84,000

Violent crimes = 135

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

V_{100k} = \frac{135*100,000}{84,000} \\V_{100k} = 161

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

   City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. Even though it has a bigger number of crimes, City A has the lowest crime rate since its population is larger.

F(x) = x^2, g(x) = 2/3 x^2 comparison
daser333 [38]

Answer:

g(x) is a vertical compression of f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of graph 1 :f(x)=x^2

Equation of graph 2 :g(x)=\frac{2}{3}x^2

f(x)→a f(x)

Its is case of vertical stretch or compression

Vertical stretch if |a|>1

Vertical compression if 0<|a|<1

f(x)→a f(x)

So, x^2 →\frac{2}{3}x^2

So, a= \frac{2}{3}=0.67

So,0<|a|<1

So,It is a case of vertical compression

So, g(x) is a vertical compression of f(x)

I NEED HELP ASAP <br> NO LINKS PLEASE
Marianna [84]

Answer:

a) 75

b) 360 students

c) 56 ; 57 ; 58

d) 134 inches

e) 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

5x = 375 \\ x =  \frac{375}{5} \\ x = 75

b)

\frac{x}{3}  = 120 \\  x = 120 \times 3 \\ x = 360

c)

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 171 \\ 3x = 168 \\ x = 56 \\ (x + 1 = 57) \\ (x + 2 = 58)

d)

2x + 2 \times 70 = 408 \\ 2x = 408 - 140 \\ x =  \frac{268}{2}  \\ x = 134

e)

180 = 90 + 63 + x \\ x = 180 - 90 - 63 \\ x = 27
