7 0

Answer:

$4\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is basically saying: what is half of 7, or what is 7 divided by 2?

Based on this, it can be written both of the ways as:

»» $\frac{1}{2}$ of 7 <u>OR</u> 7 ÷ 2

So, just solve using either one and you’ll get 4.5 or $4\frac{1}{2}$ . But since the question wants the answer to be a mixed number, then choose $4\frac{1}{2}$ .

Hope this helps! :)

Mr. smith has 5 courses he teaches at the community college. his course a has 102 students with an average tardiness of 3 studen

Furkat [3]

The percentage of tardiness among the 102 pupils is 2.94.

<h2>Calculation of the percentage</h2>

According to the query,

Course A: Total number of students = 102

Number of tardy students = 3

Percent of students tardy in course A = (number of tardy students/total

number of students) * 100

=(3/102)*100

= 2.941

≈2.94

In case of course B: Total number of students = 85 & tardy student = 5

So, the percent of tardy student = (5/85)*100 = 5.88 %

Therefore, it is concluded that the percentage of student tardiness in course A is 2.94.

Consider the function: f(x) = 2x^2 - 1.5x - 5 and its graph.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

f(x) = -4x² + 19x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = 2x^2 - 1.5x - 5$

i) If it is translated 2 units in the positive x direction, therefore we use f(x-2)

$y=f(x-2) = 2(x-2)^2 - 1.5(x-2) - 5\\y = 2(x^2-4x+4) - 1.5x+3 - 5\\y=2x^2-8x+8-1.5x+3-5\\y=2x^2-9.5x+6$

f(x) = 2x² - 9.5x + 6

If it is then translated 3 units in the positive y, we add 3 to the input function to get:

$y=f(x)+3=2x^2-9.5x+6+3\\y = 2x^2-9.5x+9$

ii) stretched vertically by a factor of 2, we multiply the function by 2 to get:

$y =2( 2x^2-9.5x+9) = 4x^2-19x+18\\y= 4x^2-19x+18$

iii) reflected across the x-axis

we multiply the parent function by –1, to get a reflection about the x-axis.

$y= -1(4x^2-19x+18)=-4x^2+19x-18\\y=f(x)=-4x^2+19x-18$
