The following frequency table summarizes last week's bed sales at Cloud Nine Furniture.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Option A. 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Observations from the given frequency table are :

Total number of beds sold at Cloud Nine Furniture = 3 + 6 + 4 + 2

                                                                                     = 15

Number of twin beds sold = 3

Then, probability that the next bed sold will be a twin bed,

P=\frac{\text{favorable outcome}}{\text{total number of possible outcomes}}

  =\frac{3}{15}

  = 0.20

Therefore, the probability that the next bed sold is a twin bed will be 0.20 or 20%.

Option A. is the correct answer.

The function f(x) = x^2 - 2x + 8 is transformed such that g(x) = f(x-2). Find the vertex of g(x).
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since g(x) is f(x-2), every time there is a "x" in the f(x) equation, substitute "x-2". So g(x) would be (x-2)^2-2(x-2)+8. Use the method of trial and error: substitute x as 1,-1, and 3, until you found the right vertex. The answer is B (3,7).

Answer:

≥ and ≤ will both be solid dots, as it includes the number

x ≥ -7 is everything greater than -7; x ≤ 4 is everything less than 4.

to include both, you'd click -7, drag right, and stop at 4

What is the slope of the line?<br> y=-5x-9<br> slope=_______
Lady_Fox [76]
-5x

The basic formula for slope of a line is
y = mx + b
where m is the coefficient of x and the slope.

Your equation is already in the right formula. The number there is -5x as your slope. Good luck!

Answer:

c. (5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

as we can clearly see, the 4th vertex has to be on the positive side of x.

therefore, all answer options with negative x are out.

(2, -5) is almost at D (-1, 5). that cannot be right for a rectangle.

that leaves only c as right answer.

FYI - how to get this without predefined answer portions ?

the x- difference of B to A is 4 (from -5 to -1). the x-difference from D to C must be the same (4). 1 + 4 = 5.

so, x of D must be 5.

the y- difference of B to A is 3 (from 3 to 6). the y-difference from D to C must be the same (3). -5 + 3 = -2.

so, y of D must be -2.
