Answer:
g(-2) = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find g(-2), plug -2 into g(x).
g(x) = -4x² + 3x + 15
g(-2) = -4(-2)² + 3(-2) + 15
g(-2) = -4(4) + 3(-2) + 15
g(-2) = -16 + (-6) + 15
g(-2) = -1 + (-6)
g(-2) = -7
Answer:
First term: 5
Fourth term: 5 1/2
Tenth term: 6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the first, fourth and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule:
A(n) = 5 + (n-1) (1/6)
First term:
A(1) = 5 + (1-1) (1/6)
A(1) = 5 + (0) (1/6)
A(1) = 5
Fourth term:
A(4) = 5 + (4-1) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + (3) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + 3/6 = 5 3/6 = 5 1/2 (simplifying)
Tenth term:
A(10) = 5 + (10-1) (1/6)
A(10) = 5 + (9) (1/6)
A (10) = 5 + 9/6 = 6 3/6 = 6 1/2 (simplifying)
Answer:
The number is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number
Now let's break it down!
Sum of a number and 3 gives;
x + 3
This is then doubled to give;
2* (x + 3)
This is added to the product of 6 and the original number to give 46
Product of 6 and the original number = 6 * x
Now 2* (x + 3) is added to 6 * x to give 46
2* (x + 3) + 6*x = 46
2x + 6 + 6x = 46
8x + 6 = 46
Subtract 6 from both sides
8x + 6 - 6 = 46 - 6
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5
Hence, the number is 5
Answer:
See below for answers and explanations
Step-by-step explanation:
Your table is a little weird, so I will try my best:
a) A linear regression equation for the line of best fit would be y-hat = 0.018x - 24.5111 where y-hat is the predicted value for the recorded weight gain (in pounds) and x is the additional daily caloric intake. You can put the data into lists and use the LinReg function on the TI-84 to get this equation.
b) It seems that as the pony's additional calorie intake increases, the weight gain also increases in pounds
c) Set x equal to 2300 and solve for y-hat:
y-hat = 0.018x - 24.5111
y-hat = 0.018(2300) - 24.5111
y-hat = 41.4 - 24.5111
y-hat = 16.8889
So our predicted value for the weight gain based on an additional 2300 calorie intake is 16.9 pounds.
