<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>

Explanation:

Any time Alyssa is increasing her speed, the graph will move uphill when going from left to right.

If she slows down, then the graph will move downhill when going left to right.

Always move from left to right when reading a graph because this is how the time axis is set up.

Any flat part represents portions where her speed is constant, i.e. doesn't change.

With all that in mind, the answer is choice D because

  • The first portion is going uphill (she's increasing her speed). This portion spans horizontally from 0 seconds to 20 seconds.
  • The next portion is her slowing down (the graph is going downhill). This portion spans horizontally from 20 seconds to 30 seconds (so we have a 10 second duration).
  • The third portion is where Alyssa is driving at some fixed speed that doesn't change. This portion is 20 seconds long.
  • The last portion is Alyssa slowing down and coming to a complete stop. This portion is 5 seconds long.

fenix001 [56]
Let
 x = number of common cars
 y = number of suvs
 we can write the following system of equations
 x-y = 12
 x = 1.429y
 Solving the system we have
 x-y = 12
 1.429y-y = 12
 and (1,429-1) = 12
 y = (12) / (1,429-1) = 27.97202797
 then,
 x = 1429 * (27.97202797)
 x = 39.97202797
 answer
 The number of suvs in the parking lot is 28

What is the solution of the proportion? 6/a = 18/27
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a=9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this proportion, we have to get the variable, a, by itself.

First, cross multiply.

6/a=18/27

Multiply the denominator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second, and the numerator of the second by the denominator of the first.

a*18=6*27

18a=162

Now, 18 and a are being multiplied. In order to get a by itself, perform the opposite of what is being done. They are being multiplied, so the opposite would be division. Divide both sides by 18.

18a/18=162/18

a=162/18

a=9

So, the proportion, with 9 substituted in for a, will be:

6/9=18/27

o-na [289]

Answer:

H0:p= 0.80                 H1: p< 0.80  one tailed test

Step-by-step explanation:

We state the null and alternative hypotheses as that the results are 80 % against the claim that the results are less than 80%.

H0:p= 0.80                 H1: p< 0.80  one tailed test

p2= 0.8 , p1= 74/97= 0.763

q1= 1-0.763= 0.237    q2= 0.2

The level of significance is 0.05 .

The Z∝= ±1.645 for ∝= 0.05

The test statistic used here is

Z= p1-p2/ √pq/n

Putting the values:

Z= 0.763 -0.8 / √ 0.8*0.2/97

z= -0.037/ 0.0406

z= -0.9113

The Z∝ = ±1.645 for ∝= 0.05 for one tailed test.

As the calculated value  does not fall in the critical region  we fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to support  the claim that such polygraph results are correct less than 80% of the time.

Using the normal probability table.

P (Z <  -0.9113)= 1- P(z= 0.9311) = 1- 0.8238= 0.1762

If P- value is smaller than the significance level reject H0.

0.1762> 0.005  Fail to reject H0.

The image of a parabolic lens is traced onto a graph. The function f(x) = (x + 8)(x – 4) represents the image. At which points d
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

x = -8 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

recall that at any point on the x-axis, y = 0 [i.e f(x) = 0]

hence to find where the graph crosses the x-axis, we simply substitue f(x) = 0 into the equation and solve for x

f(x) = (x+8) (x - 4)

0 = (x+8) (x - 4)

Hence

either,

(x+8) = 0 ----> x = -8  (first crossing point)

or

(x-4) = 0 ------> x = 4 (second crossing point)

Hence the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 4
