Answer:
b) .474
Step-by-step explanation:
If 62% go to a four-year college, that means that those who don't represent 38% of the high-school graduates.
You pick up someone who is NOT going to a four-year college (so, he's among the 38%)... what's the chance he's in the 18% of the whole high-school graduates population that found a job?
To calculate that probability, we have to divide 18% by 38%.
P = 18% / 38% = 0.4736, so 0.474
Since we are sure he doesn't go to a four-year college, there's 47.4% of chances he finds a job.
For future reference, it would be easier to say 8 and a half miles. Just a tip for better understanding. Now I am pretty sure the answer would be the first one. You would take the total divided by the variable of each day to get the number of days
Answer:
b. 4x^2 + 3x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The values of f(x) for the extremes of x are more positive than the value of f(x) for the middle x, so we know the parabola opens upward. That eliminates choice D.
It is probably easiest to evaluate the other expressions to see which one matches the given f(x) values. For the purpose, it is usually easier to use the Horner form of the equation.
a. f(-2) = (3(-2) +4)(-2) -6 = -2(-2) -6 = -2 ≠ 4
b. f(-2) = (4(-2) +3)(-2) -6 = -5(-2) -6 = 4 . . . . matches the given data point
c. Because (b) matches, we know this one will not.
The appropriate choice is B.
An explicit formula for a sequence allows you to find the value of any term in the sequence. A recursive formula for a sequence allows you to find the value of the nth term in the sequence if you know the value of the (n-1)th term in the sequence.
