Answer:

A. ¼

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change (m) = $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Using two points on the line, (4, 1) and (-4, -1), find the rate of change using the formula stated above:

Where,

$(4, 1) = (x_1, y_1)$

$(-4, -1) = (x_2, y_2)$

Plug in the values

Rate of change (m) = $\frac{-1 - 1}{-4 - 4}$

= $\frac{-2}{-8}$

= $\frac{1}{4}$

Rate of change = ¼

Answer:

$n=(\frac{2.58(1000)}{50})^2 =2662.56 \approx 2663$

So the answer for this case would be n=2663 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info:

$ME = 50$ margin of error desired

$\sigma = 1000$ the standard deviation for this case

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that ME =50 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (b)

The critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance is $\alpha=0.01$ . And for this case would be $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$ , replacing into formula (b) we got:

$n=(\frac{2.58(1000)}{50})^2 =2662.56 \approx 2663$

So the answer for this case would be n=2663 rounded up to the nearest integer

Alistair has a rectangular picture measuring 8 inches by 7 inches. He makes a frame for the picture, shown by the shaded area in

nydimaria [60]

You are given a rectangular picture measuring 8 inches by 7 inches. Also, Alistair wants this to be framed and that the total area is 34 square inches. The width of the frame is x inches. To solve the dimension of the frame with value of x we have:

We have to assume that x here will be equal to all sides of the frame and so, using the area of the rectangle, we can model the equation like this:
A = LW (where A is the area, L is the length and W is the width)
36 = (8 - x)(7 - x)
36 = 56 - 8x - 7x + x²
x² - 15x +20 = 0 → model of our equation and in quadratic form

x² - 15x + 20 = 0
using a calculator, x = 1.48 inches

3.Use the equation you created in part A to find the width of the picture frame
