Answer:

251

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Mean length of fish  = μ= 73  cm

SD  σ =8 c m

Number of fish having a length greater than 57 cm out of 480.

Find the value of  z  at  x = 57

z= \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} = \frac{57-73}{8}\\=\frac{-16}{8} = -2

Area between  z = − 2 and  z =  ∞

= Area between  z = − 1  and  z = 0 +

Area between  z = 0  and  z = ∞

=0.02275+0.5= 0.52275

Therefore number of fish having teeth greater than 57 cm

= 0.52275*480 = 5.2275*48 = 250.92 ≅251

The statements that are true about the intervals of the continuous function are Options 2, 4  and 5

  • f(x) ≤ 0 over the interval [0, 2].
  • f(x) > 0 over the interval (–2, 0).
  • f(x) ≥ 0 over the interval [2, ).

<h3>What is the statement about?</h3>

Looking at the values given, the intervals which satisfies the condition are known to be:

f(x)<=0 over the interval [0,2]

f(x)>0 over the interval (-2,0)

f(x)>=0 over the interval [2,∞)

Because:

Since the table with x  and f(x) values, we have to examine analyze the table and see the each option that is in line with f(x) or not .

Examine the values of x that is from -3 to 3, the f(x) values are both positive and negative . hence f(x)>0 is false over the interval (-∞,3)

Looking at the the interval from 0 to 2, the f(x) values are 0 and negative. Hence, f(x)<=0 over the interval [0,2]

When you look over the interval (-1,1), the f(x) values are said to be both positive and negative and as such, f(x)<0 is false over the interval (-1,1)

When you look at the interval (-2,0) , the f(x)  is positive and as such, f(x)>0 over the interval (-2,0)

Looking at the interval  [2,∞), f(x) is positive and as such, f(x)>=0 over the interval [2,∞)

Therefore, Option 2, 4 and 5 are correct.

eimsori [14]
To determine the number of tickets that Ric sold, subtract from the total tickets sold the sum of the number of tickets sold by Alex and Ian. This is mathematically shown as, 

                        tickets (Ric) = tickets (total) - (tickets (Alex) + tickets (Ian))

                                  tickets (Ric) = 48 - (11 + 18) = 19

Hence, Ric sold 19 tickets for the fundraising.
