Which of following is the graph of y = -(x + 1)- -3?

Joe has to take two quizzes tomorrow. He has only enough time to study for one of them. The science quiz has 6 true or false que

finlep [7]

Answer:

C) English

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't really know how to explain it, so I'll show you instead.

For science, there are 6 of 6 correct answers with a 0.5 chance of answering correctly.

So,

0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.016

For English, there are 4 of 4 correct answers with a 0.25 chance of answering correctly.

So,

0.25 x 0.25 x 0.25 x 0.25 = 0.004

They will have to study English (0.004) because it is lower than science (0.016).

An area is approximated to be 14 in 2 using a left-endpoint rectangle approximation method. A right- endpoint approximation of t

USPshnik [31]

The trapezoidal approximation will be the average of the left- and right-endpoint approximations.

Let's consider a simple example of estimating the value of a general definite integral,

$\displaystyle\int_a^bf(x)\,\mathrm dx$

Split up the interval $[a,b]$ into $n$ equal subintervals,

$[x_0,x_1]\cup[x_1,x_2]\cup\cdots\cup[x_{n-2},x_{n-1}]\cup[x_{n-1},x_n]$

where $a=x_0$ and $b=x_n$ . Each subinterval has measure (width) $\dfrac{a-b}n$ .

Now denote the left- and right-endpoint approximations by $L$ and $R$ , respectively. The left-endpoint approximation consists of rectangles whose heights are determined by the left-endpoints of each subinterval. These are $\{x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_{n-1}\}$ . Meanwhile, the right-endpoint approximation involves rectangles with heights determined by the right endpoints, $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$ .

So, you have

$L=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})\right)$
$R=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)\right)$

Now let $T$ denote the trapezoidal approximation. The area of each trapezoidal subdivision is given by the product of each subinterval's width and the average of the heights given by the endpoints of each subinterval. That is,

$T=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(\dfrac{f(x_0)+f(x_1)}2+\dfrac{f(x_1)+f(x_2)}2+\cdots+\dfrac{f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})}2+\dfrac{f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)}2\right)$

Factoring out $\dfrac12$ and regrouping the terms, you have

$T=\dfrac{b-a}{2n}\left((f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1}))+(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n))\right)$

which is equivalent to

$T=\dfrac12\left(L+R)$

and is the average of $L$ and $R$ .

So the trapezoidal approximation for your problem should be $\dfrac{14+21}2=\dfrac{35}2=17.5\text{ in}^2$

A) choose the linear model that passes through the most data points on the scatterplot.

irina1246 [14]

Answer: b

Explanation:
The line of best fit to a scattergram is obtained in linear regression analysis by minimizing the sum of the squared errors.
For example, in the diagram shown below, there are n data points in the scattergram.
The error for the i-th data point is $e_{i}$ .
The coefficients (a and b) for the line of best fit are determined using calculus, to minimize $\sum_{i=1}^{n} e_{i}^{2}$ .

Please please, please

Masja [62]

The production of health drink cans at a warehouse can be represented by the equation below, where x represents the hours of production, and y the total supply of items in the warehouse, in hundreds.

Which of the following graphs represents this situation?

the equation is y= 3/5x+2

I drew the graph.

3/5 is the slope, and 2 is the y-intercept. So you start at (0,2), and go up 3 units, then right 5.

hope it helps
