This is not a straight line rather number line.

Equations with two variables produce graphs that are lines.  If the line on the graph
is straight, then it has one slope at every point on it.  If the line on the graph has any
curves in it, then it has different slopes at different points on it.  That's for equations
with two variables.

The equation in this question only has one variable, and it only produces a number . . . the number that 'x' must be in order to make the equation a true statement.  It's
not too hard to find:

<span><u>5 + 2x = 2 + 3x</u></span>

Subtract 2x from each side:

5 = 2 + x

Subtract 2 from each side:

<u>3 = x</u>

And that's it.  'x' is 3.

If you want to graph that, then what you get is a vertical line on the graph. 
It crosses the x-axis at the point where 'x' is 3 .

The slope of a vertical line is 'undefined', just like the slope of a brick wall. 
That means that some people would look at it and call it "infinity", but in real
math, it's just 'undefined' ... it has no name at all.

A population of bears decreases exponentially.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

  0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The annual factor will be found by dividing any year's population by the population of the year before. The points most easily read from the graph are the populations for years 0 and 1. Then the annual factor is ...

  factor = (year 1 population)/(year 0 population) = 320/400

  factor = 0.8

I know you didn't want an explanation, but I'll give you one anyway.
So, for a function, when you have f(5) = , then you'll put that 5 in for all of the x's in the function. 

The first batch of problems gave you the equation f(x) = \frac{x}{2} + 3. Now, plug in the numbers given for s and solve.

1. f(5) = <span>\frac{x}{2} + 3   Plug in 5 for x
</span>         = \frac{5}{2} + 3   Make three into a fraction over 2
         = \frac{5}{2} + <span>\frac{6}{2}   Add
         = </span><span><span>\frac{11}{2}

</span>2. f(-4) = </span><span>\frac{x}{2} + 3   Plug in -4 for x
           = </span><span>\frac{-4}{2} + 3   Divide -4 by 2
           = -2 + 3   Add
           = 1

For the next set, you have g(x) = x</span>² + 1.

3. Let's split this up. Solve the first equation, then the second, and then put         the answers together to solve it.

g(4) = x² + 1   Plug in 4 for x
       = 4² + 1   Square
       = 16 + 1   Add
       = 17

g(3) = x² + 1   Plug in 3 for x
       = 3² + 1   Square
       = 9 + 1   Add
       = 10

Now, put the two together.

g(4) + g(3) =    Substitute in the answers you just got.
      17 + 10 =    Add
                  = 27         

4. g(-1) = x² + 1      Substitute in -1 for x
            = (-1)² + 1   Square
            = 1 + 1        Add
            = 2

5. g(-6) = x² + 1       Plug in -6 for x
             = (-6)² + 1   Square
             = 36 + 1      Add
             = 37

For the last set, we have h(x) = x² + 7 and k(x) = 4x - 5. We'll have to pay close attention to the starting variables here.

6. h(-6) = x² + 7       Plug in -6 for x
             = (-6)² + 7   Square
             = 36 + 7      Add
             = 43

k(4) = 4x - 5     Plug in 4 for x
       = 4(4) - 5   Multiply
       = 16 - 5      Subtract
       = 11

Put the two answers into the final equation.

h(-6) + k(4) =    Substitute in the answers you got
       43 + 11 =    Add
                   = 54

7. k(10) = 4x - 5       Plug in 10 for x
            = 4(10) - 5   Multiply
            = 40 - 5      Subtract
            = 35

h(2) = x² + 7   Plug in 2 for x
       = 2² + 7   Square
       = 4 + 7     Add
       = 11

Now, put those into the equation.

k(10) - h(2) =    Plug in the answers you got
       35 - 11 =    Subtract
                  = 24

8. For this one, it wants you to add h(x) and k(x). We don't need to plug anything into the equations this time because they're both already solved for x! So, you can just set this up like a standard find-x equation.

(x² + 7) + (4x - 5) =
    x² + 7 + 4x - 5 =   Combine like terms (7 and -5)
         x² + 2 + 4x =    Reorder so the variables come first
                            = x² + 4x + 2

In the past, the average age of employees of a large corporation has been 40 years. Recently, the company has been hiring older
Viktor [21]

Answer:

p_v =P(t_{(63)}>2.5)=0.0075  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean age is significantly higher than 45 years at 5% of significance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

\bar X=45 represent the mean height for the sample  

s=16 represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

n=64 sample size  

\mu_o =40 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean age is higher than 40 years, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 40  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 40  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{45-40}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{64}}}=2.5    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=64-1=63  

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(63)}>2.5)=0.0075  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean age is significantly higher than 45 years at 5% of significance.
