Answer:

Option A (0,a)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$f(x)=a(b^{x})$

Is a exponential function

where

a is the initial value

b is the base

Remember that

The initial value is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to zero (y-intercept)

therefore

For x=0

$f(0)=a(b^{0})$

$f(0)=a(1)=a$

The y-intercept is the point (0,a)

Five years ago, you invested $475 in corporate stock. You received dividends of $10 at the end of each quarter for two years. Yo

RUDIKE [14]

The rate of return earned on the investment of $475 five years ago in the corporate stock is 312.63%.

<h3>What is the rate of return?</h3>

The rate of return is the net gain or loss of an investment expressed as a percentage of the investment's initial cost.

It is given by the formula, R= {Vf - Vi}/{Vi} x 100.

Where:

R = Rate of return

Vf = final value, including dividends and interest

Vi = initial value

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Investment cost = $475

Dividends received:

1st two years = $80 ($10 x 8)

Three years = $180 ($15 x 12)

Total dividends received = $260 ($80 + $180)

Total revenue from sale = $1,700

Total proceeds = $1,960 ($1,700 + $260)

Total return = $1,485 ($1,960 - $475)

Rate of return = 312.63% ($1,485/$475 x 100)

Thus, the rate of return is 312.63%.

Graph the solution to the following system of inequalities in the coordinate plane.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is in slope-intercept form, so you can see that the boundary line has a slope of -2 and goes through the point (x, y) = (0, -4). Since the comparison is "<", the line is dashed and shading is below it.

The second equation is that of a vertical boundary line at x=-3. It is solid, because the comparison includes the "equal" case. Shading is to the right of it, where x values are greater than -3.

The ages of the Oscar-winners for best actor and actress for the years 1970 through 1990 are given below: Women: 34, 34,26,37,42

Artemon [7]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Numerical way

We can calculate the mean and the standard deviation from a sample with the following formulas:

$\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

$s= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}$

We have the following dataset for women: 34,34,26,37,42,41,35,31,41,33,30,74,33,49,38,61,21,41,26,80,72

And the mean and deviation are:

$\bar X_F = 41.857$

$s_F = 16.399$

We can calculate the median ordering the data like this:

21,26,26,30,31,33,33,34,34,35,37,38,41,41,41,42,49,61,72,74,80

And the median would be on the 11 position of the data ordered, for this case is:

$median_F = 37$

$Minimum_F = 21 , Maximum_F = 80$

And the range is given by: $Range_F = 80-21=59$

We can also calculate the coefficient of variation given by:

$\hat{CV} =\frac{s}{\bar X} = \frac{16.399}{41.857}=0.392$

We have the following dataset for men:

43, 40,48,48,56,38,60,32,40,42,37,76,39,55,45,35,61,33,51,32,42

And the mean and deviation are:

$\bar X_M = 45.381$

$s_M = 11.218$

We can calculate the median ordering the data like this:

32, 32,33,35,37,38,39,40,40,42,42,43,45,48,48,51,55,56,60,61,76

And the median would be on the 11 position of the data ordered, for this case is:

$median_M = 42$

$Minimum_M = 32 , Maximum_F = 76$

And the range is given by: $Range_M = 76-32=44$

We can also calculate the coefficient of variation given by:

$\hat{CV} =\frac{s}{\bar X} = \frac{11.218}{45.381}=0.247$

We se that the mean for the male groups is higher than the mean for female group. The deviation is higher for the female group comapred to the male group. We have more variation for the female group as we can see on the range and the coeffcient of variation.

Graph

We can see the histograms for each group on the figures attached.

As we can see the histogram for males is skewed to the right with the median lower than the mean.

By the other hand the histogram for the female group seems to be skewed to the right also but with missing values on the interval 50-60, for this reason we have more variation compared to the male group.
