We are trying to represent the change in position of a bird flying down 7 ft to the ground.
Often, for the y axis- up is positive and down is negative.
Change in position is displacement- how far it was from the starting point
( different from distance which is how far is traveled
ex. doubling back would have distance they traveled some distance while the displacement is 0 because they are back to where they started).
The bird is going down 7 ft from where it originally was, which can be represented by
Bird's displacement = -7 ft
45th percentile means that 45% of the data fall below that number while 55% (that is, 100-45) fall above it.
Now, arranging the number in ascending order;
$60, $85, $95, $105, $120, $145, $155, $175, $190, $215, $235, $240, $260, $285, $325
The total number of counts = 15
Then,
Index = 15*45% = 15*0.45 = 6.75
Round up,
Index = 7
The,
7th number = $155
Therefore, 45th percentile value of the data = $155
We performed the following operations:
![f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}=2f(x)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20g%28x%29%3D2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%3D2f%28x%29)
If you multiply the parent function by a constant, you get a vertical stretch if the constant is greater than 1, a vertical compression if the constant is between 0 and 1. In this case the constant is 2, so we have a vertical stretch.
![g(x)=2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}=-g(x)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=g%28x%29%3D2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20h%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%3D-g%28x%29)
If you change the sign of a function, you reflect its graph across the x axis.
![h(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}\mapsto m(x)=-2\sqrt[3]{x}-1=h(x)-1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D%5Cmapsto%20m%28x%29%3D-2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bx%7D-1%3Dh%28x%29-1)
If you add a constant to a function, you translate its graph vertically. If the constant is positive, you translate upwards, otherwise you translate downwards. In this case, the constant is -1, so you translate 1 unit down.
Answer:
x=0.5×1±√33
Step-by-step explanation:
x+8=x² and 2(x+8)=2x²
x²-x-8=0
