Answer:

Population is the total number of people that fall into the description of those that the research concerns.

In this case, Population is: Everyone who signed a card saying that they intend to quit smoking.

Sample. This is a subset of the population that the research is based on.

Sample = 1,000 people surveyed.

Parameter and Statistic are both descriptive measures but parameter is for the population and statistic is for the sample.

Parameter = Percentage of total population who have not smoked in 6 months.

Statistic = 21% of sample who have not smoked in 3 months.

Which number is the largest? 1.2 × 104, 4.5 × 10−3, 3.8 × 103, 7.5 × 103
aivan3 [116]
1.2 x 10^4 = 12,000
4.5 x 10^-3 = 4.5 x 1/(10^3) = 4.5/1000 = 0.0045
3.8 x 10^3 = 3,000
7.5 x 10^3 = 7,000

largest is 1.2 x 10^4

f(x)=x^2; vertical shrink by a factor of 1/2 and a reflection in the y-axis, followed by a translation 1 unit down​
NeX [460]

The image of the function f(x) after vertical shrink by a factor of 1/2

and a reflection in the y-axis, followed by a translation 1 unit down​

is g(x) = \frac{1}{2} x² - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets revise:

1. The vertical shrink

A vertical shrinking is the squeezing of the graph toward the x-axis.

if 0 < k < 1 (a fraction), the graph of y = k•f(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically

shrunk by multiplying each of its y-coordinates by k

2. The reflection

If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then its image is g(x) = f(-x)

3. Vertical translation

If the function f(x) translated vertically up  by m units, then its image

is g(x) = f(x) + m

If the function f(x) translated vertically down  by m units, then its image

is g(x) = f(x) - m

Now let us solve the problem

∵ f(x) = x²

∵ f(x) shrunk by a factor of \frac{1}{2}

∴ The image of f(x) = \frac{1}{2} x²

∵ The image of f(x) reflected across y-axis

∴ The sign of x will change

∴ The new image of f(x) = \frac{1}{2} (-x)²

∵ The new image of f(x) translated 1 unit down

∴ We will subtract the new image of f(x) by 1

∴ The last image of f(x) is g(x) = \frac{1}{2} (-x)² - 1

<em>V.I.Note:</em>

(-x)² = x² because even exponents reject the negative sign

The image of the function f(x) after vertical shrink by a factor of 1/2

and a reflection in the y-axis, followed by a translation 1 unit down​

is g(x) = \frac{1}{2} x² - 1
