Answer: y = -2|x| + 1

Step-by-step explanation: it is an absolute value function, y = |x|, moved up one. then we see that it has been flipped. it has also been vertically stretched by a factor of 2.

Answer:

0.5981 = 59.81% probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they save nothing for retirement, or they save something. The probability of an adult saving nothing for retirement is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

20% of adults in the United States save nothing for retirement (CNBC website).

This means that $p = 0.2$

Suppose that sixteen adults in the United States are selected randomly.

This means that $n = 16$

What is the probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement?

This is:

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{16,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.0281$

$P(X = 1) = C_{16,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{15} = 0.1126$

$P(X = 2) = C_{16,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.2111$

$P(X = 3) = C_{16,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{13} = 0.2463$

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0281 + 0.1126 + 0.2111 + 0.2463 = 0.5981$

0.5981 = 59.81% probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement

Help with question on Complementary and Supplementary Angles

stiks02 [169]

Step-by-step explanation:

Right angle = 90°

(x + 3) + (x - 1) + (x + 1) = 90

3x + 3 = 90, x = 29.

Supplementary angles = Angles that add up to 180°.

x + (x + 104) = 180

2x = 76, x = 38.

A tire company finds that the lifespan for one brand of its tires is normally distributed with a mean of 47,500 miles and a stan

Illusion [34]

Answer:

42580 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = $\mu = 47500$

$\sigma = 3000$

The manufacturer does not want to replace more than 5% of the tires

$P(X\leq x)=5\%$

$P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq \frac{x-47500}{3000})=0.05$

By using normal table values :

$\frac{x-47500}{3000}=-1.64$

$x=(-1.64 \times 3000)+47500$

$x=42580$

Hence the approximate number of miles for the warranty is 42580 miles

Please Help me! Algebra 1

Option a: The number of bacteria at time x is 0.

Option b: An exponential function that represents the population is $y=200(1.5)^x$

Option c: The population after 10 minutes is 11534(app)

Explanation:

It is given that the coordinates of the graph are (0,200), (1,300) and (2, 450)

Option a: To determine the number of bacteria x when y = 200

From the graph, we can see that the line meets y = 200 when x = 0

Thus, the coordinates are (0,200)

Hence, the number of bacteria at time x is 0 when y = 200.

Option b: Now, we shall determine the exponential function of the population.

The general formula for exponential function is $y=a \cdot b^{x}$

Where a is the starting point and $a=200$

b is the common difference.

To determine the common difference, let us divide,

$\frac{300}{200} =1.5$

Also, $\frac{450}{300} =1.5$

Hence, the common difference is $b=1.5$

Thus, substituting the values $a=200$ and $b=1.5$ in the formula $y=a \cdot b^{x}$ ,

we have, $y=200(1.5)^x$

Hence, An exponential function that represents the population is $y=200(1.5)^x$

Option c: To determine the population after 10 minutes, let us substitute $x=10$ in $y=200(1.5)^x$ , since the x represents the population of the bacteria in minutes.

Thus, we have,

$\begin{aligned}y &=200(1.5)^{x} \\&=200(1.5)^{10} \\&=200(57.67) \\&=11534\end{aligned}$

Hence, the population after 10 minutes is 11534(app)
