A
It is a first degree polynomial (aka linear because its highest power is 1) and it has two terms (2x and 8)
It does not have eight terms and is not a monomial (one term ie 3x^2)
Answer:
(1/2)s = 345
s = 690 (Maggie's savings balance)
Step-by-step explanation:
For any problem, word problem or otherwise, you start be reading and understanding the problem. You should specifically look for
- what you're being asked to find (what is the question to answer)
- the information you're given that is relevant to the question asked.
Here, you're asked to find a savings account balance. You're told that $345 is half that amount.
__
After you decide what you're looking for and the given relevant information, you use the problem statement and your personal knowledge to write one or more equations relating what you know to what you want to find.
A first step for doing this is to define any necessary variables. In this problem, we can use "s" for the original savings balance (in dollars). (I like to choose letters that remind me what they stand for. "x" or "y" can sometimes get mixed up. For a one-variable problem, it doesn't really matter what you call it. It is helpful to be clear about the units of measure of any variables. Confusion there can also lead to errors.)
The problem statement tells us that half the savings account amount is $345, so our equation is ...
(1/2)s = 345
__
The "one step" required to solve this so to multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
s = 690
Maggie had $690 in her savings account before she bought the computer.
How man bags were used?
41 / 3 = 13.7
We can say about 14 bags by rounding to the nearest whole number. Therefore, 14 bags were used.
Since the aim of experiment is to check the effectiveness of a new medication, for a better conclusion and results, Ethan must perform some statistical testing i.e. hypothesis testing.
Based on results from that hypothesis testing Ethan can decide if there is a significant decrease of sneezing in the patients of treatment group or not.
However, before performing any such testing, Ethan can also observe the data and conclude on basis of his observations i.e. if considerable number of patients in treatment group show reduced signs of sneezing then the new medicine is effective in reducing sneezing.
To find the inverse, switch the variables and solve for f(x).
x = e^f(x) + 6
x - 6 = e^f(x)
f(x) = ln(x-6)
hope this helps :)
