Answer:

B. -7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x + 5

To find the value of f(-3), replace all the x's in f(x) with -3.

f(x) = 4x + 5

f(-3) = 4(-3) + 5

f(-3) = -12 + 5

f(-3) = -7.

This makes your answer B, -7.

When x increases from a to a + 2, y increases by a difference of 8. For which functions is this statement true?

lord [1]

Answer:

That would be Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets look at y = 4x + 2:-

Let x = a then y = 4a + 2

Now if x in creases to a +2, y = 4(a +2) + 2 = 4a + 8 + 2

= 4a + 10.

(4a + 10) - (4a + 2) = 8 , so this is the required expression, y = 4x + 2.

Write -6/11 * 3/4 lowest terms

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$(-\frac{6}{11}) \times( \frac{3}{4}) = -(\frac{9}{22} )$ in the lowest terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is : $(-\frac{6}{11}) \times( \frac{3}{4})$

Solving the given expression, we get:

$(-\frac{6}{11}) \times( \frac{3}{4}) = \frac{-6 \times 3}{11 \times 4} =- \frac{18}{44}$

Now, to express the fraction into lowest terms

18 = 2 x 3 x 3, 44 = 2 x 2 x 11

So, $-\frac{18}{44} = -(\frac{2 \times 3 \times 3}{2 \times 2\times 11} ) = -(\frac{9}{22} )$

Hence, $(-\frac{6}{11}) \times( \frac{3}{4}) = -(\frac{9}{22} )$ in the lowest terms.

The quality control manager at a computer manufacturing company believes that the mean life of a computer is 120 months, with a

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

P(X<118.81)=0.0803

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the distribution for the mean life is approximately normal, with mean 120 months and variance 64 months^2, we can calculate the parameters for a sampling distribution with sample size = 89 computers.

The sampling distribution mean will be equal to the mean for a single computer:

$\mu_{89}=\mu=120$

The standard deviation will be adjusted by the sample size as:

$\sigma_{89}=\sqrt{\sigma^2/n}=\sqrt{64/89}=\sqrt{0.719}=0.848$

With these parameters, we can calculate the z-score for X=118.81.

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{118.81-120}{0.848}=\dfrac{-1.19}{0.848}=-1.403$

Then, the probability that the mean of a sample of 89 computers is less than 118.81 months is:

$P(X$
