Answer:

we need to get your brain thinking in this way. that you begin to understand how to do these things.

airways to say that your brain is not working that way, is not a valid excuse. we need to change that. your brain needs to get used to this way of thinking.

so, please, please, PLEASE go through the explanations below and tell me, where exactly in these explanations you stopped understanding what I was saying. so that I can better explain to you what is happening.

1. (0, -2)

2. 4

3. a geometric sequence. the common ratio is -2.0

4. the third option

5. the fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

1. as x increases, y decreases. until, suddenly after x=0, this tendency reverses, and with increasing x also y increases. so, this is a turning point.

2. look at the line. it only starts with x>0 (it looks like x is around 1).

"input" is all the values of x the function has a defined result for (y = result values).

so, as there is no line for negative x, we can eliminate the first 2 answers.

x=0 is no valid answer either (as mentioned above, the line only starts well after x=0).

in the answer options the only x value having an y value above or below this x value is x=4.

3. look at the difference between 2 numbers next to each other in the sequence.

2.4 to -4.8

-4.8 to 9.6

and so on.

what do we need to do to get from the left to the right ?

we need to multiply by -2.

so, the relationship between "sequence item n" (an) to "sequence item n-1" (an-1) is a ratio, a multiplication factor :

an/an-1 = -2

4. it is completely simple. a function can be many things. on an x/y coordinate grid it can have gaps, it can have sharp direction changes,...

but there us one thing a function can never have : multiple different y values for one x value.

in the first graph x=2 has two different y values (-1 and -3). so, it is not clear what the result for x=2 would be. and that means, it is not a function.

in the second graph x=4 has two different y values.

in the third graph all is OK.

in the fourth graph x=-2 has two different y values.

so, only the third option is a function.

5. this function calculates the height of the thrown rock after t seconds of flight.

therefore, only the fourth answer makes sense.

The cost of a car rental is $25 per day plus 22 per mile. You are on a daily budget of $90. Write and solve an inequality to f

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: You can drive, at most, 2.95 miles per day.

x ≤ 2.95

Step-by-step explanation:

In a single day, you can spend at most $90

Then if C represents the cost of renting the car, then we will have the inequality:

C ≤ $90

Now let's find the equation for C.

We know that we have a fixed cost of $25 plus $22 per mile, then if you drive x miles, the total cost will be $25 plus x times $22, or:

C = $25 + x*$22.

We can now replace that in the inequality:

$25 + x*$22 ≤ $90

Now let's isolate the variable x

x*$22 ≤ $90 - $25

x*$22 ≤ $65

x ≤ $65/$22 = 2.95

x ≤ 2.95

You can drive at most, 2.95 miles per day.

To find other inequalities with the same solution we can start with the solution:

x ≤ 2.95

Now let's multiply both sides by a number (the units of the number can be dollars, in that way we can make a similar problem)

Let's multiply both sides by $10:

x*$10 ≤ 2.95*$10 = $29.5

x*$10 ≤ $29.5

Now let's add the same number in both sides, for example, $5.

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $29.5 + $5 = $34.5

x*$10 + $5 ≤ $34.5

We could write this problem as:

"To rent a cab in your city, you have an initial cost of $5, plus $10 for each mile driven. How many miles could you drive if at most you can spend $34.50?"

You could be more creative with the problem, but this is the way in which you can craft problems of this type when you already know the solution.

In a random sample of 18 families, the average weekly food expense was $95.60 with a sample standard deviation of $22.50. Determ

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

t-distribution should be used to construct a confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 18 families, the average weekly food expense was $95.60 with a sample standard deviation of $22.50.

We have to determine whether a normal distribution (Z values) or a t- distribution should be used or whether neither of these can be used to construct a confidence interval.

Since in this question we are provided with;

Sample average weekly food expense, $\bar X$ = $95.60

Sample standard deviation, s = $22.50

Sample of families, n = 18

The distribution that we will use here to construct a confidence interval will be t-distribution because in the question we don't know anything about population standard deviation $(\sigma)$ .

Normal distribution is used when we know population standard deviation $(\sigma)$ .

So, the pivotal quantity for confidence interval that will be used is One-sample t-test statistics;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

Therefore, t-distribution should be used to construct a confidence interval.
