Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
f(x) + g(x) = 6x - 2 + 2x + 4 = 8x + 2
(b)
(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
f(x) - g(x) = 6x - 2 - (2x + 4) = 6x - 2 - 2x - 4 = 4x - 6
The right answer is -13/12.
The percent of decrease would be 60%
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
σ = 4 ; μ =?
8.52 to the left of X
.
P(X < 8.52) = 64.8%
P(X < 8.52) = 0.648
Using the Z relation :
(x - μ) / σ
P(Z < (8.52 - μ) / 4)) = 0.648
The Z value of 0.648 of the lower tail is equal to 0.38 (Z probability calculator)
Z = 8.52 - μ / 4
0.38 = 8.52 - μ / 4
0.38 * 4 = 8.52 - μ
1.52 = 8.52 - μ
μ = 8.52 - 1.52
μ = 7
Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
