Answer:

The estimate for the proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke is 0.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke.

Number who smoke divided by the size of the sample.

In this question:

Sample of 1267.

913 don't smoke, so 1267 - 913 = 354 smoke. Then

p = \frac{354}{1267} = 0.28

The estimate for the proportion of Americans over 33 who smoke is 0.28.

At what x value does the function given below have a hole?<br><br> f(x)=x+3/x2−9
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

hole at x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The hole is the discontinuity that exists after the fraction reduces. (Still doesn't exist for original of course)

The discontinuities for this expression is when the bottom is 0. x^2-9=0 when x=3 or x=-3 since squaring either and then subtracting 9 would lead to 0.

So anyways we have (x+3)/(x^2-9)

= (x+3)/((x-3)(x+3))

Now this equals 1/(x-3) with a hole at x=-3 since the x+3 factor was "cancelled" from the denominator.
