IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=\sqrt{-x}

we know that

The radicand of the function cannot be a negative number

so

-x\geq 0

Solve for x

Multiply by -1 both sides

x\leq 0

The domain of the function f(x) is the interval -----> (-∞, 0]

The domain is all real numbers less than or equal to zero

The range of the function f(x) is the interval ----> [0,∞)

The range is all real numbers greater than or equal to zero

<em>Example</em>

For x=144

144\leq 0 ----> is not true

This value of x not satisfy the domain

substitute

f(x)=\sqrt{-144} ----> this value is undefined

For x=-144

-144\leq 0 ----> is true

This value of x satisfy the domain

substitute

f(x)=\sqrt{-(-144)}

f(x)=\sqrt{144}----> this value is defined

therefore

The function will be undefined for all those values of x that do not belong to the interval of the domain of the function

Data collected over a long period of time show that the length of time x to complete a particular college entrance test is norma
Finger [1]

Using the z-table, the probability that a student taking this test will finish in 100 minutes or less is 0.0824 or 8.24%.

For a normally distributed set of data, given the mean and standard deviation, the probability can be determined by solving the z-score and using the z-table.

First, solve for the z-score using the formula below.

z-score = (x – μ) / σ

where x = individual data value = 100

μ = mean = 125

σ = standard deviation = 18

z-score = (100 – 125) / 18

z-score = (-25) / 18

z-score = -1.39

Find the probability that corresponds to the z-score in the z-table. (see attached images)

-1.39 - (-1.3) : -1.4 - (-1.3) = x - 0.0968 : 0.0808 - 0.0968

-0.09 : -0.1 = x - 0.0968 : -0.016

x - 0.0968 = -0.09(-0.016)/-0.1

x = -0.0144 + 0.0968

x = 0.0824

x = 0.0824

Hence, the probability that a student taking this test will finish in 100 minutes or less is 0.0824 or 8.24%.
