Answer:

A.x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a rational function which has a vertical asymptote  at x=-4.

We have to find the term which appears in factored form in the denominator of the function.

We know that

To find the vertical asymptote of a rational function we will substitute the

denominator equal to zero.

Then, solve for x.

The value of x obtained are called vertical asymptotes.

By definition of vertical asymptote

x=-4

x+4=0

x+4 will be appears in factored form in the denominator of the function.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sleep Deprivation

In a recent study, volunteers who had 8 hours of sleep were three times more likely to answer correctly on a math test than were sleep-deprived participants.

(a) Identify the sample used in the study.

(b) What is the sample's population?

(c) Which part of the study represents the descriptive branch of statitics?

(d) Make an inference based on the results of the study?

Solution

A. The samples used is the hours of sleep and math test scores of the volunteers

B. The samples population is hours of sleep and math test scores of people in general

C. The part of the study that represent the descriptive branch of statistics is "three times more likely"

D.Inference: To perform well in a math test, a person should get at least 8 hours of sleep the night before.

A representative from the National Football League's Marketing Division randomly selects people on a random street in Kansas Cit
Orlov [11]

Using the binomial distribution, we have that:

a) 0.1024 = 10.24% probability that the marketing representative must select 4 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

b) 0.2621 = 26.21% probability that the marketing representative must select more than 6 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

c) The expected number of people is 4, with a variance of 20.

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they attended a game, or they did not. The probability of a person attending a game is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial distribution is used.

Binomial probability distribution  

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

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

The parameters are:

  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

The expected number of <u>trials before q successes</u> is given by:

E = \frac{q(1-p)}{p}

The variance is:

V = \frac{q(1-p)}{p^2}

In this problem, 0.2 probability of a finding a person who attended the last football game, thus p = 0.2.

Item a:

  • None of the first three attended, which is P(X = 0) when n = 3.
  • Fourth attended, with 0.2 probability.

Thus:

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

P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.512

0.2(0.512) = 0.1024

0.1024 = 10.24% probability that the marketing representative must select 4 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

Item b:

This is the probability that none of the first six went, which is P(X = 0) when n = 6.

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

P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{6} = 0.2621

0.2621 = 26.21% probability that the marketing representative must select more than 6 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

Item c:

  • One person, thus q = 1.

The expected value is:

E = \frac{q(1-p)}{p} = \frac{0.8}{0.2} = 4

The variance is:

V = \frac{0.8}{0.04} = 20

The expected number of people is 4, with a variance of 20.

HURRY!!
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

I'm sorry you got that wrong. The correct answer was R since it is staying in the same place which is called a constant line. It stays in the same place since she isn't moving, she is just standing there waiting for the cab.
