Answer:

g(x) = -|x| + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g(x) be the transformation function

-|x| reflects f(x) across the x-axis. Add 1 to move the result up one unit

So, g(x) = -|x| + 1

Due to a manufacturing error, two cans of regular soda were accidentally filled with diet soda and placed into a 18-pack. Suppos

crimeas [40]

Answer:

a) There is a 1.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

b) There is a 79.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

c) $P(X = 2)$ is unusual, $P(X = 0)$ is not unusual

d) There is a 19.58% probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two possible outcomes. Either the can has diet soda, or it hasn't. So we use the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And $\pi$ is the probability of X happening.

A number of sucesses $x$ is considered unusually low if $P(X \leq x) \leq 0.05$ and unusually high if $P(X \geq x) \geq 0.05$

In this problem, we have that:

Two cans are randomly chosen, so $n = 2$

Two out of 18 cans are filled with diet coke, so $\pi = \frac{2}{18} = 0.11$

a) Determine the probability that both contain diet soda. P(both diet soda)

That is P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}(0.11)^{2}(0.89)^{0} = 0.0121$

There is a 1.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

b)Determine the probability that both contain regular soda. P(both regular)

That is P(X = 0).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}(0.11)^{0}(0.89)^{2} = 0.7921$

There is a 79.21% probability that both contain diet soda.

c) Would this be unusual?

We have that $P(X = 2)$ is unusual, since $P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) = 0.0121 \leq 0.05$

For P(X = 0), it is not unusually high nor unusually low.

d) Determine the probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular. P(one diet and one regular)

That is P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}(0.11)^{1}(0.89)^{1} = 0.1958$

There is a 19.58% probability that exactly one is diet and exactly one is regular.

Polynomial division (-12m^2-49mn-44n^2)/(-3m-4n)

Ket [755]

First factor -12m^n - 49mn - 44n^2 to get -(4n+3m)(11n + 4m) then the equation would be:
-(3m + 4n)(4m + 11n) / (-3m - 4n)
Then, cancel out the like terms and the final answer would be
4m + 11n

The perimeter of a rectangle is about 13.9 cm. If you double the width of the rectangle the perimeter is about 17.8 cm. Find the

fredd [130]

Answer:

5cm by 1.95cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be x

Let the width be y

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2x + 2y

If the initial perimeter of a rectangle is about 13.9 cm, then;

13.9 = 2x + 2y ..... 1

If when the width is double the perimeter is 17.8cm, then;

17.8 = 2x + 4y ..... 2

Subtract 1 from 2;

13.9 - 17.8 = 2y - 4y

- 3.9 = -2y

y = 3.9/2

y = 1.95 cm

Substitute y = 1.95 into 1 to get x;

From 1;

13.9 = 2x + 2y

13.9 = 2x + 2(1.95)

13.9 = 2x + 3.9

2x = 13.9-3.9

2x = 10

x = 5 cm

Hence the dimension of the smaller triangle is 5cm by 1.95cm
