Answer:

9:15 or 3:5

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can compare a part of a whole to a whole.

In this case, our whole is the total number of shots attempted: 15.

The basketball player successfully made 9 of the attempts. 9 is our other number in this ratio.

Put these values in a ration.

part:whole

9:15

Notice that 9 and 15 can be simplified by dividing both numbers by 3.

3:5

This is your simplified ratio.

Hope this helps!

What is the inverse of cube root x/3 +1

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

${f}^{ - 1} (x) = 3 {x}^{2} - 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the inverse of

$y = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{x}{3} + 1}$

We interchange x and y to get:

$x= \sqrt[3]{ \frac{y}{3} + 1}$

We solve for y;

${x}^{2} = \frac{y}{3} + 1$

Multiply through by 3

$3 {x}^{2} = y + 3$

Subtract 1 from both sides:

$y = 3 {x}^{2} - 3$

Therefore the inverse is

${f}^{ - 1} (x) = 3 {x}^{2} - 3$

A survey study is to be made to estimate the proportion of residents of a certain suburb who favor the construction of a public

lesya [120]

Answer: 601

Step-by-step explanation:

When the prior estimate of population proportion is not given , the formula we apply to find sample size :

$n=0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$

, where z* = critical z-value

E=Margin of error

Given : Margin of error = 0.04

Confidence level = 95%

We know that , according to the z-table , the critical value for 95% confidence interval = z*= 1.960

Then, the required sample size : $n=0.25(\dfrac{1.960}{0.04})^2$

$n=0.25(49)^2$

$n=0.25(2401)=600.25\approx601$

Hence, the required minimum sample size = 601

Solve 4(x + 1) = 4x + 4. Would it be No solution? Or all real numbers?

arsen [322]

Pick any number. Write it in place of 'x'. If the result is a true statement, then your number is a solution of the equation. Do it again with a different number. Then do it again. Does it matter what your number is ?
