Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is the point of intersection of the 2 lines

The lines intersect at (- 3, - 4 ), then

f(x) = g(x) has solution x = - 3

A farmer has 96 apples to sell at the farmers market. She wants to bag the apples before going. How many ways can the farmer bag

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer and explanation:

Farmer's number of apples = 96 apples

Given that Farmer needs to bag the apples so that there are at least 4 apples in each bag(not less than 4 apples in each bag) and not more than 10 apples in each bag

And also all apples in each bag are equal

We need to find the numbers between 4 and 10(including 4 and 10) that can divide 96 without a remainder

4 can divide 96= 24

5 cannot divide 96 without remainder

6 can divide 96 =16

7 cannot divide 96 without remainder

8 can divide 96=12

9 cannot divide 96 without remainder

10 cannot divide 96 without remainder

From the above we see that the factors of 96 = 4, 6, 8 between 4 and 10

4 apples = 24 bags

6 apples = 16 bags

8 apples = 12 bags

Therefore, there can be 3 possible ways of having equal number of apples in each bag between 4 and 10 apples

Suppose that from the past experience a professor knows that the test score of a student taking his final examination is a rando

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$n=13.167^2 =173.369$ and if we round up to the nearest integer we got n =174

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Let X the random variable who represents the test score of a student taking his final examination. We know from the problem that the distribution for the random variable X is given by:

$X\sim N(\mu =73,\sigma =10.5)$

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

Solution to the problem

We want to find the value of n that satisfy this condition:

$P(71.5 < \bar X$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X- \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And we have this:

$P(\frac{71.5-73}{\frac{10.5}{\sqrt{n}}} < Z$

And we can express this like this:

$P(-0.14286 \sqrt{n} < Z< 0.14286 \sqrt{n} )=0.94$

And by properties of the normal distribution we can express this like this:

$P(-0.14286 \sqrt{n} < Z< 0.14286 \sqrt{n} )=1-2P(Z$

If we solve for $P(Z$ we got:

$P(Z$

Now we can find a quantile on the normal standard distribution that accumulates 0.03 of the area on the left tail and this value is: $z=-1.881$

And using this we have this equality:

$-1.881 = -0.14286 \sqrt{n}$

If we solve for $\sqrt{n}$ we got:

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{-1.881}{-0.14286}=13.167$

And then $n=13.167^2 =173.369$ and if we round up to the nearest integer we got n =174

Point Q is the center of dilation. Lines segment S U is dilated to form line segment S prime U prime. The length of Q S is 3 .2

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dilation rule is $D_{Q,2.5}$ . It means the center of dilatation is point Q and scale factor is 2.5.

Scale factor is the ratio of distance from center to the image of a point and distance from center to the corresponding point.

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{QU'}{QU}$

It is given that QU=4 and scale factor = 2.5.

$2.5=\dfrac{QU'}{4}$

Multiply both sides by 4.

$2.5\times 4=QU'$

$10=QU'$

We know that

$UU'=QU'-QU$

$UU'=10-4$

$UU'=6$

The distance between U' and U is 6 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Harold wrote this equation to model the level of water in a pool over time. The variable x represents time in hours. f(x) = 3,50

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool was 3,500 units

The water was 2,600 units high after 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function that models the water level is

$f(x)=3,500-225x$

where $x$ represents time in hours.

The function represents a straight line that has slope $m=-225$

Since the slope is negative, it means the water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool can found when we put $x=0$ into the function.

$f(0)=3,500-225(0)$

$f(0)=3,500$ , hence the initial level is 3,500.

To determine the level of water in the pool after 14 hours, we put $x=14$ into the equation to get;

$f(14)=3,500-225(14)$

$f(14)=3,500-3150$

$f(14)=350$

To determine the water level after 4 hours we put $x=4$

$f(4)=3,500-225(4)$

$f(4)=3,500-900$

$f(14)=2,600$
