<h3>Answer: C) 2</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

g(x) is the inverse of f(x), which tells us that g undoes everything f(x) does.

If we input x = -6 then f(x) outputs 1

g(x) then reverses this to say that g(1) = -6. The inputs and outputs swap roles.

Moving to row 2, we see that f(-3) = 2 which reverses to g(2) = -3

We'll replace the g(2) with -3 to go from

f( g(2) )

f( -3 )

-3 isn't the answer, but I wanted to put it in bold to show how the replacement is happening.

From the table, we see that f(-3) = 2 which is the final answer

In other words, f(g(2)) = 2

------------------------------

Side note:

We can say that f(g(x)) = x for any number x in the domain of g(x).

As another example, g(3) = 5 and f(g(3)) = f(5) = 3.

The same works the other way around meaning that g(f(x)) = x.

PLEASE HELP!! Write an equation of g(x) that represents an exponential base “e” parent function with the following transformatio

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

$g(x) = 12 {e}^{ - x - 7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is

$g(x) = e {}^{x}$

First it is asked to reflect over the y axis so using the rule

$g(x) = g( - x)$

Our function looks like

$g(x) = e {}^{ - x}$

Then we are asked to shift the equation to the right 7. When shifting to the right or move the x axis, instead of adding 7 we would want to subtract 7 since the x axis is the independent variable and we must respect the y axis which is the dependent so using the rule

$g(x) = g(x - h)$

When subtracting a 7 it looks like now

where h is the number we move . Now we are asked to apply a vertical stretch of 12. Since vertical stretch refers to the y axis, we are just going to multiply the function by 12 using the rule

$g(x) = a \times g(x)$

where a is the vertical stretch. So now it would look like

$g(x) = 12 {e}^{ - x - 7}$

In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 2.2 2.2% with a standard deviation of 6.3 6.3%.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

a) 0.625; b) 16.879; c) 8.442

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a normal distribution, we want the value of the mean, μ: 2.2; and the value of the standard deviation, σ: 6.3.

For the 40th percentile, we look in a z chart. We want to find the value as close to 0.40 as we can get; this is 0.4013, and it corresponds to a z score of z = -0.25.

Our formula for a z score is $z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ . Using our values, we have

-0.25 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(-0.25) = X-2.2

-1.575 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

-1.575+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

0.625 = X

For the 99th percentile, the value in the z chart closest to 0.99 is 0.9901, which corresponds to a z score of z = 2.33:

2.33 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(2.33) = X-2.2

14.679 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

14.679+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

16.879 = X

For the IQR, we find the values for the 75th percentile (Q3) and the 25th percentile (Q1). The value in a z chart closest to 0.75 is 0.7486, which corresponds to a z score of z = 0.67:

0.67 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(0.67) = X-2.2

4.221 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

4.221+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

6.421 = X

The value in a z chart closest to 0.25 is 0.2514, which corresponds to a z score of z = -0.67:

-0.67 = (X-2.2)/6.3

Multiply both sides by 6.3:

6.3(-0.67) = X-2.2

-4.221 = X-2.2

Add 2.2 to each side:

-4.221+2.2 = X-2.2+2.2

-2.021 = X

This makes the interquartile range

6.421--2.021 = 8.442

What is the minimum number of bits required to store each binary string of length 50? (b) what is the minimum number of bits req

antiseptic1488 [7]

In order to answer the above question, you should know the general rule to solve these questions.
The general rule states that there are 2ⁿ subsets of a set with n number of elements and we can use the logarithmic function to get the required number of bits.
That is:
log₂(2ⁿ) = n number of bits

a). What is the minimum number of bits required to store each binary string of length 50?

Answer: In this situation, we have n = 50. Therefore, 2⁵⁰ binary strings of length 50 are there and so it would require:

log₂(2⁵⁰) = 50 bits.

b). what is the minimum number of bits required to store each number with 9 base of ten digits?

Answer: In this situation, we have n = 50. Therefore, 10⁹ numbers with 9 base ten digits are there and so it would require:

log2(109)= 29.89
 = 30 bits. (rounded to the nearest whole #)

c). what is the minimum number of bits required to store each length 10 fixed-density binary string with 4 ones?

Answer: There is (10,4) length 10 fixed density binary strings with 4 ones and
so it would require:
log₂(10,4)=log₂(210) = 7.7
= 8 bits. (rounded to the nearest whole #)
