A study of traffic violations on a busy highway finds that the number of tickets for speeding written by officers tends to decre

ase on rainy days. A police sergeant explains that driver behavior could be a confounding variable.
Which statement best explains the confounding variable in this study?

On sunny days, more tickets for speeding are written than on rainy days.
Officers are less likely to want to leave their police cars to write tickets on rainy days.
Drivers may drive more carefully on rainy days, so the number of speeding tickets decreases.

Evaluate the function f\left(x\right)=5x+2\mid11-5x\mid-4f(x)=5x+2∣11−5x∣−4 for x = -5.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

f\left(5\right) = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f\left(x\right)=5x+2\mid11-5x\mid-4

Required

Solve for x = -5

This implies that we substitute -5 for x in f\left(x\right)=5x+2\mid11-5x\mid-4

f\left(5\right)=5(-5)+2\mid11-5(-5)\mid-4

Open all brackets

f\left(5\right) = -25+2\mid11+25\mid-4

f\left(5\right) = -25+2\mid36\mid-4

Absolute value of 36 is 36; Wo, we have:

f\left(5\right) = -25+2*36-4

f\left(5\right) = -25+72-4

f\left(5\right) = 43

What is the amplitude, period, and phase shift of y= 5cos( x/2 + 2pi/3)
nordsb [41]
Y = A cos(Bx + C)
A - amplitude
\frac{2\pi}{B} - period
- \frac{C}{B} - phase shift

y=5\cos{( \frac{x}{2} + \frac{2\pi}{3} )}
\\
\\y=5\cos{( \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{2\pi}{3})}
\\
\\A=5,B= \frac{1}{2},C= \frac{2\pi}{3}

Amplitude: 5
Period: \frac{2\pi}{B}=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{1}{2}}=4\pi
Phase shift: - \frac{C}{B} =- \frac{\frac{2\pi}{3}}{\frac{1}{2}}= -\frac{4\pi}{3}

X/5-2=x/2+3 solve for x
Makovka662 [10]
Solve for x:x/5 - 2 = x/2 + 3
Put each term in x/5 - 2 over the common denominator 5: x/5 - 2 = x/5 - (10)/5:x/5 - (10)/5 = x/2 + 3
x/5 - (10)/5 = (x - 10)/5:(x - 10)/5 = x/2 + 3
Put each term in x/2 + 3 over the common denominator 2: x/2 + 3 = x/2 + 6/2:(x - 10)/5 = x/2 + 6/2
x/2 + 6/2 = (x + 6)/2:(x - 10)/5 = (x + 6)/2
Multiply both sides by 10:(10 (x - 10))/5 = (10 (x + 6))/2
10/5 = (5×2)/5 = 2:2 (x - 10) = (10 (x + 6))/2
10/2 = (2×5)/2 = 5:2 (x - 10) = 5 (x + 6)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:2 x - 20 = 5 (x + 6)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:2 x - 20 = 5 x + 30
Subtract 5 x from both sides:(2 x - 5 x) - 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 30
2 x - 5 x = -3 x:-3 x - 20 = (5 x - 5 x) + 30
5 x - 5 x = 0:-3 x - 20 = 30
Add 20 to both sides:(20 - 20) - 3 x = 20 + 30
20 - 20 = 0:-3 x = 30 + 20
30 + 20 = 50:-3 x = 50
Divide both sides of -3 x = 50 by -3:(-3 x)/(-3) = 50/(-3)
(-3)/(-3) = 1:x = 50/(-3)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 50/(-3) by -1:Answer:  x = (-50)/3
