F(x)=√x-2 I need to find the domain and the range

a walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-2x-7. A new path will be built perpendicular to this path.The pat

jonny [76]

Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

y=(1/2)x+1-3

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

(4). Simplifying polynomials, help pls:) brainliest involved

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

To simplify a polynomial, we have to do two things: 1) combine like terms, and 2) rearrange the terms so that they're written in descending order of exponent.

First, we combine like terms, which requires us to identify the terms that can be added or subtracted from each other. Like terms always have the same variable (with the same exponent) attached to them. For example, you can add 1 "x-squared" to 2 "x-squareds" and get 3 "x-squareds", but 1 "x-squared" plus an "x" can't be combined because they're not like terms.

Let's identify some like terms below.

f(x)=−4x+3x2−7+9x−12x2−5x4

Here you can see that -4x and 9x are like terms. When we combine (add) -4x and 9x, we get 5x. So let's write 5x instead:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

Let's do the same thing with the x-squared terms:

f(x)=5x+3x2−7−12x2−5x4

f(x)=5x−9x2−7−5x4

Now there are no like terms left. Our last step is to organize the terms so that x is written in descending power:

f(x)=−5x4−9x2+5x−7

Use the formula to help you answer the question below. do not include units in your answer.

bogdanovich [222]

The information given requires you to rework the formula as :
distance÷time=rate

so then plug in values to get
5÷2=rate

and the answer will be 2.5 as your rate

Find the side of a square whose diagonal is of the given measure.<br> Given = 8 miles

Rzqust [24]

A square has 4 sides each of X miles. Its diagonal is X times Square Root of 2.
If the diagonal is 8 miles then 8 = xSqrt(2)
x = 8/Sqrt(2)
Rationalize the Denominator, i.e. multiply by Sqrt(2)/Sqrt(2)
X = 8Sqrt(2)/2
X = 4Sqrt(2)

A random sample of the costs of repair jobs at a large muffler repair shop produces a mean of $127.95. and a standard deviation

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

$127.95-1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=121.55$

$127.95 +1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=134.35$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (121.55;134.35)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=127.95$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=24.03 represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=40-1=39$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.05,39)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=1.685$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$127.95-1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=121.55$

$127.95 +1.685\frac{24.03}{\sqrt{40}}=134.35$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (121.55;134.35)
