Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Disagree. (4, 4) and (4, 5) show that for a single input, 4, there are two distinct outputs (4 and 5). In a function no more than 1 output can be associated with a given input.

The given relation is not a function.

How many solutions are there to the equation y = 14x – 9? Plz HELP

dem82 [27]

D is correct because you could put in a value for x and get a true value for y

exg
x=3
y=14(3)-9
y=42-9
y=33

Find the ratio of p to S <br><br> 3p=8s

vodomira [7]

3p : 8s
1p : (8/3)s

So for every one 'p' there is (8/3) 's'

Ratio of p to s is 1 : 8/3

The weights of a large number of miniature poodles are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 8 kilograms and a stand

harina [27]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the table attached.

(a) over 9.5 kg;

μ = 8

σ = 0.9

z = 9.5 - 8/0.9 ≈ 1.67

P (Z > 1.67) = 0.5 - P(0<Z<1.67) = 0.5 - 0.4525 = 0.0475

(b) at most 8.6 kg;

z = 8.6-8/0.9 ≈ 0.67

P(Z < 0.67) = 0.5 + P(0<Z<0.67) = 0.5 + 0.2486 = 0.7486

z₁ = 7.3-8/0.9 ≈ -0.78

z₂ = 9.1 - 8/0.9 ≈ 1.22

P(-0.78 < Z < 1.22) = P(0 < Z < 0.78) + P(0 < Z < 1.22) = 0.2823 + 0.3888 = 0.6711

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-2 1) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x-2y=8 ?

monitta

4x-2y=8 ==> y=2x-4 (to better show you what I mean)

2 lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m the coefficient of x).

So y=mx + b // y =2x-4 means m=2 & y=mx + b, becomes y=2x + b.
Moreover they are telling us that this function passes by (-2,1), where -2 represents x & 1, represents y. To calculate b , replace x & y by their values:
y=2x+b ==> 1 = 2(- 2) + b==> 1 = -4 + b ==> b= 5. Finally the equation is
y=-2x+5
