Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well if you think about it, if she has a total of 10 attempts she has to make 8 of them to make it on the team. Now the total attempts is double so we double the number of throws she needs to make in order to make the team so to do this we would do 8*2 which is 16. She needs to make 16 throws to make it on the team.

Let f(x) = cxe−x2 if x ≥ 0 and f(x) = 0 if x < 0.

sergij07 [2.7K]

(a) If f(x) is to be a proper density function, then its integral over the given support must evaulate to 1:

$\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)\,\mathrm dx = \int_0^\infty cxe^{-x^2}\,\mathrm dx=1$

For the integral, substitute u = x ² and du = 2x dx. Then as x → 0, u → 0; as x → ∞, u → ∞:

$\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^\infty ce^{-u}\,\mathrm du=\frac c2\left(\lim_{u\to\infty}(-e^{-u})-(-1)\right)=1$

which reduces to

c / 2 (0 + 1) = 1 → c = 2

(b) Find the probability P(1 < X < 3) by integrating the density function over [1, 3] (I'll omit the steps because it's the same process as in (a)):

$\displaystyle\int_1^3 2xe^{-x^2}\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{e^8-1}{e^9}} \approx 0.3678$

Polygon ABCD is defined by the points A(-4,2) B(-2, 4), C(1, 3) & D(2,2). Match the coordinates of the points of the transfo

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

D'(-2, 2); C''(3, -1); A'''(4, -2); and B''(4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the figure.

For D', rotating the point (2, 2) 90° counterclockwise. This maps each point (x, y)→(-y, x); it takes (2, 2)→(-2, 2).

For C'', rotating the point (1, 3) 90° clockwise. This maps each point (x, y)→(y, -x); it takes (1, 3)→(3, -1).

For A''', rotating the point (-4, 2) 180° clockwise. This maps every point (x, y)→(-x, -y); it takes (-4, 2)→(4, -2).

For B'', rotating the point (-2, 4) 270° counterclockwise. This is the similar as rotating the point 90° clockwise. This maps every point (x, y)→(y, -x); it takes (-2, 4)→(4, 2).

At 2:00 PM the temperature is 18°F. At 10:00 PM the temperature is -9°F.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

To figure out the change, we subtract the original temperature by the following after temperature.

18°F - original

-9°F - subsequent time after original

So we set up the equation;

18°F - (-9°F)

(Two negatives combine to form a positive)

18°F + 9°F

= 27°F was the change in temperature.

-7(a - 3) = 11 - 7a what’s the answer

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

the statement is false there is no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1 -7(a-3)=11-7a

step 2 -7a+21=11-7a

step 3 cancel out the -7a's

step 4 you are left with 21=11 which does not work so it is false
