Answer:

7.1

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure why you have two equal signs, so I'm just going to use the part before the second sign.

                                          -4.5 = -0.5(x-7.1) -4.5

Add 4.5 to both sides       -4.5 + 4.5 = -0.5(x-7.1) -4.5 + 4.5

                                                      0   =  -0.5(x-7.1)

Multiply both side by -2         -2 * 0   =  (-2)(-0.5)*(x-7.1)

                                                      0    =    1   *   (x - 7.1)

                                                      0    =    x - 7.1

Add 7.1 to both sides                 0  +  7.1  =  x  -  7.1  +  7.1

                                                          7.1   =   x

What is the range of the function f(x) = 3x2 + 6x – 8?
timama [110]

Answer:

Range is {y | y ≥ –11}


Step-by-step explanation:

This is quadratic equation.

<em>A quadratic equation's range can be found if we find the vertex.</em>

For quadratic equations that have a positive number in front of  x^{2} , it is upward opening and thus <u>all the numbers greater than or equal to the minimum value of vertex is the range.</u>


The formula for vertex of a parabola is:

Vertex =  (-\frac{b}{2a}, f(-\frac{b}{2a})

Where,

  • a is the coefficient of x^{2}
  • b is the coefficient of x

From our equation given, a=3  and  b=6

Now, x coordinate of vertex is  x=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x=-\frac{6}{(2)(3)}\\x=-\frac{6}{6}\\x=-1

y coordinate of the vertex IS THE MINIMUM VALUE that we want. We get this by plugging in the x value [ x=-1 ] into the equation. So we have:

3(-1)^{2}+6(-1)-8\\=-11


Hence, the range would be all numbers greater than or equal to -11  

Third answer choice is the right one.

A line perpendicular to another will have the opposite sign and be flipped

ex: slope is 4/5 the other lines slope will be -5/4

(-2,-1) (2,-3)

slope formula

y2-y1/x2-x1

-3-(-1)
____
2-(-2)

-3+1
___
2+2

-2
___
0

the slope of the perpendicular line is 0/-2 which is just 0

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a majorâ tournament, men challenged 1399 refereeâ calls, with the re
prohojiy [21]

Answer: The value of test statistic is 0.696.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n_1=1399\\\\x_1=411\\\\p_1=\dfrac{x_1}{n_1}=\dfrac{411}{1399}=0.294

Similarly,

n_2=759, x_2=211\\\\p_2=\dfrac{x_2}{n_2}=\dfrac{211}{759}=0.278

At 0.01 level of significance.

Hypothesis are :

H_0:P_1=P_2=0.5\\\\H_a:P_1\neq P_2

So, the test statistic value would be

z=\dfrac{(p_1-p_2)-(P_1-P_2)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{P_1Q_1}{n_1}+\dfrac{P_2Q_2}{n_2}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.294-0.278}{\sqrt{0.5\times 0.5(\dfrac{1}{1399}+\dfrac{1}{759})}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.016}{0.023}=0.696

Hence, the value of test statistic is 0.696.
