Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question we can form the following 3 equations (in the order of the first 3 sentences)

w = 2h (twice the price)

t = h - 4 ($4 less)

3w + 2h + 5t = 136 (total purchasing and cost)

We can solve all 3 equations for h first, by substituting the first two equations, into the third equations w and t

3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136

Simplify

6h + 2h + 5h - 20 = 136

13h = 136 + 20

13h = 156

h = 156/13

h = $12

Using this information, we can solve for w and t

w = 2h

w = 2(12)

w = $24

And finally

t = h - 4

t = 12 - 4

t = $8

HELP 40 POINTS

Answer: the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.


Explanation:


1) The function f(x) = 3x² + 12x + 16 is a parabola.


The vertex of the parabola is the minimum or maximum on the parabola.


If the parabola open down then the vertex is a maximum, and if the parabola open upward the vertex is a minimum.


The sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term tells whether the parabola opens upward or downward.


When such coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upward (so it has a minimum); when the coefficient is negative the parabola opens downward (so it has a maximum).


Here the coefficient is positive (3), which tells that the vertex of the parabola is a miimum.


Then, finding the minimum value of the function is done by finding the vertex.

I will change the form of the function to the vertex form by completing squares:

Given: 3x² + 12x + 16

Group: (3x² + 12x) + 16
Common factor: 3 [x² + 4x ] + 16
Complete squares: 3[ ( x² + 4x + 4) - 4] + 16
Factor the trinomial: 3 [(x + 2)² - 4] + 16
Distributive property: 3 (x + 2)² - 12 + 16
Combine like terms: 3 (x + 2)² + 4

That is the vertex form: A(x - h)² + k, whch means that the vertex is (h,k) = (-2, 4).


Then the minimum value is 4 (when x = - 2).


2) The othe function is <span>g(x)= 2 *sin(x-pi)
</span>

The sine function goes from -1 to + 1, so the minimum value of sin(x - pi) is - 1.


When you multiply by 2, you just increased the amplitude of the function and obtain the new minimum value is 2 (-1) = - 2


Comparing the two minima, you have 4 vs - 2, and so the function g(x) has the smallest minimum y-value.

The standard deviation of the data set is 2.3. Compute the variance to the nearest hundredth. 2,2,2,3,5,5,6,7,8
Arada [10]
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance...so that means the variance is the standard deviation squared.
