Answer:

Mason recieved 15 points for answering the question correctly so that means that he had -15 points before. The points would be at -15 and 0.

0 and -15 because he is at 0 after the question so he would have been in the negatives before the question. He would have been at -15 before the question.

The graph of the function showing the path of a soccer ball thrown by a goalie in a video game, f(x) = –0.05x2 + 2.5x + 5.2, is

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$f(x)=-0.05x^2+2.5x+5.2$

Where f(x) is height of the ball and x is the distance.

It is a polynomial function with degree 2. All polynomial functions are defined for all real numbers, therefore the mathematical domain of the function is all real numbers.

$-\infty$

Factorize the given function.

$f(x)=-0.05(x^2-50x-104)$

$f(x)=-0.05(x^2-52x+2x-104)$

$f(x)=-0.05(x(x-52)+2(x-52))$

$f(x) = -0.05 (x - 52) (x + 2)$

Put f(x)=0 to find the x intercepts.

$0 = -0.05 (x - 52) (x + 2)$

Equate each factor equal to 0.

$x=52,-2$

Therefore at x=52 and -2, the graph of f(x) intersects x-axis. Before x=-2 and after x=52 the values of f(x) is negative. Height cannot be negative, therefore reasonable domain is lie between -2 to 52.

Distance cannot be negative, therefore the reasonable domain must be positive.

$0\leq x\leq 52$

Therefore the reasonable domain is $0\leq x\leq 52$ and option 4 is correct.

You look at real estate ads for houses in Naples, Florida. There are many houses ranging from $200,000 to $500,00 in price. The

Answer:

c) skewed to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that is a distribution is skewed to the right then we have the following condition satisfied:

$Mode< Median$

And if is skewed to the left then we have:

$Mean$

If the distribution is symmetric we need to satisfy:

$Mean = Median=Mode$

For this case since we have most of the values between 200000 and 500000 when we put atypical values like 15000000 that would affect the sample mean and on this case the sample mean would larger than the sample median because the median is a robust measure of central tendency not affected by outliers.

So for this special case we can say that the $Mean>Median$ . And probably the median would be higher than the mode so then we can conclude that the best answer for this case would be:

c) skewed to the right.

Classify the figure in as many ways as possible.

Dima020 [189]

The answer is D.

This figure has 4 sides which makes it a quadrilateral.

This figure has 2 sets of parallel sides which makes it a parallelogram.

This figure has 4 equal sides which makes it a rhombus.

This figure has 4 right angles which makes it a rectangle.

And this figure has both 4 equal sides and 4 equal angles which makes it a square.

To make it easier, all squares are: quadrilaterals, parallelograms, rhombuses, rectangles and of course squares.

PLEASE HELP<br><br><br> What is the value of x?

AleksAgata [21]

The angles inside a triangle add up to 180°
The 3rd angle is supplementary to (6x+1)°
Supplementary means they make a straight line (i.e 180°)

1st angle = 79°
2nd angle = (2x+10)°
3rd angle = 180° - (6x+1)°

180 = 79 + (2x+10) + 180 - (6x+1)
180 = 79 + 2x + 10 + 180 - 6x - 1
combine like terms
180 - 180 - 79 - 10 + 1 = 2x - 6x
-88 = -4x
-88/-4 = x
22 = x
