Answer:

A. 4·10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you ...

6×10⁵ miles = 15 × (last year's mileage)

Dividing by 15 gives ...

(60×10⁴ miles)/15 = (last year's mileage) = 4×10⁴ miles

_____

Further explanation

An exponent is an indication of repeated multiplication.

10⁵ = 10·10·10·10·10 = 100,000

We can use the associative property of multiplication to rewrite the number of miles:

6×10⁵ = 6·(10·10·10·10·10) = 600,000 = (6·10)·(10·10·10·10) = 60×10⁴

The square root of a negative number, such as StartRoot negative 144 EndRoot, is undefined. Explain why the square root of –x, S

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=\sqrt{-x}$

we know that

The radicand of the function cannot be a negative number

$-x\geq 0$

Solve for x

Multiply by -1 both sides

$x\leq 0$

The domain of the function f(x) is the interval -----> (-∞, 0]

The domain is all real numbers less than or equal to zero

The range of the function f(x) is the interval ----> [0,∞)

The range is all real numbers greater than or equal to zero

Example

For x=144

$144\leq 0$ ----> is not true

This value of x not satisfy the domain

substitute

$f(x)=\sqrt{-144}$ ----> this value is undefined

For x=-144

$-144\leq 0$ ----> is true

This value of x satisfy the domain

substitute

$f(x)=\sqrt{-(-144)}$

$f(x)=\sqrt{144}$ ----> this value is defined

therefore

The function will be undefined for all those values of x that do not belong to the interval of the domain of the function

Sophie [7]

Answer:

0.024

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size (n) = 146 people

The proportion (p) of people who answered that they would be interested in seeing the show again is:

$p=\frac{132}{146}\\ p=0.9041$

The standard error for a sample of size 'n' and proportion 'p' is:

$SE = \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}\\SE = \sqrt{\frac{0.9041*(1-0.9041)}{146}}\\ SE=0.024$

The standard error for the sample proportion of audience members who want to see the show again is 0.024.
