we are given
f(x)=[x=1]
where bracket means ceiling functions
we know that
Ceiling function returns the least value of the integer that is greater than or equal to the specified number
so, we can check each options
option-A:
At x=-4:
f(x)=[-4-1] =-5
For x<-3:
Let's assume
x=-3.1
f(x)=[-3.1-1] =[-4.1]=-5
so, this interval is TRUE
option-B:
At x=-2:
f(x)=[-2-1] =-3
For x<-1:
Let's assume
x=-1.1
f(x)=[-1.1-1] =[-2.1]=-3
so, this is FALSE
Answer:
b=-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
See steps below
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(2x+7)=-29-4x
Use the distributive property
-6x-21=-29-4x
Add 21 to each side
-6x=-8-4x
Add 4x to both sides
-2x=-8
Divide by -2
x=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the random variable representing the time (in minutes) taken for a dose of a certain drug to be effective as a sedative on lab animals. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = sample mean
µ = population mean
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 1
σ = √variance = √0.01 = 0.1
the probability that the time taken for a randomly selected animal is between 1 and 1.1 minutes is expressed as
P(1 ≤ x ≤ 1.1)
For x = 1,
z = (1 - 1)/0.1 = 0
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.5
For x = 1.1
z = (1.1 - 1)/0.1 = 1
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.84
Therefore,
P(1 ≤ x ≤ 1.1) = 0.84 - 0.5 = 0.34
The the proportion of animals for which the time taken is between 1 and 1.1 minutes is 0.34
Answer:
The new coordinate of image of point B (-4, 6) will be B'(-2, 3) when a rectangle ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of One-half with a center of dilation at the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the vertices of the rectangle ABCD
When a rectangle ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of One-half with a center of dilation at the origin, then the coordinate of image of point B can be calculated by multiplying the x and y coordinates of point B with 1/2.
i.e.
B(-4, 6) → B'(-4/2, 6/2) = B'(-2, 3)
Therefore, the new coordinate of image of point B (-4, 6) will be B'(-2, 3) when a rectangle ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of One-half with a center of dilation at the origin.
