Answer:

1/6 p -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2/3p + 1/5 - 1 + 5/6p

When I combine like terms, I put them next to each other.

- 2/3p + 5/6p+ 1/5 - 1

We need to get a common denominator of 6 for the p terms

-2/3 *2/2 p + 5/6 p

-4/6p + 5/6 p

1/6 p

We need to get a common denominator of 5 for the contant terms

1/5 - 1*5/5

1/5-5/5

-4/5

Substituting these in

2/3p + 5/6p+ 1/5 - 1

1/6 p -4/5

Answer:

Choice A) 50 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The stem is the value on the left side of the vertical bar (5, 6, and 7 in that first column). The leaf is a single digit on the right side that pairs up with the stem to form the whole value. In the first row, the stem of 5 pairs up with the 0 to get 50. The next value is 51 because the stem 5 pairs up with the 1 after the 0. Then the value after that is 51 again. Repeated values are allowed.

The entire first row of values is: 50, 51, 51, 53, 56

The second row is: 62, 69

The third row is: 71, 71, 73, 75, 77

We see that only 50 is listed in the four answer choices and no other value.

The correct statement that interprets the confidence interval is option A: We have 95% confidence that the limits of 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps contain the true value of the mean of the population of all data speeds at the airports.

The correct answer is A. We have 95% confidence that the limits of 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps contain the true value of the mean of the population of all data speeds at the airports.

The confidence interval shows that we are 95% confident that the true mean of the population of all data speeds at the airports is between 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps.

The other options are incorrect.

Option B states that we have 95% confidence that the limits of 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps contain the sample mean of the data speeds at the airports.

This is incorrect because the confidence interval is for the population mean, not the sample mean.

Option C states that the limits of 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps contain the true value of the mean of the population of all data speeds at the airports.

This is also incorrect because we can never be 100% sure that the true mean is within the confidence interval.

Option D states that the limits of 13.05 Mbps and 22.15 Mbps contain 95% of all of the data speeds at the airports.

This is incorrect because the confidence interval is for the mean of the population, not for all of the data speeds in the population.

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle B.g(2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given f(x) and the graph of g(x)

to figure out which function has the greatest value we need to figure out g(x) function first

the given graph is a parabola so g(x) has to be quadratic function

both vertex and y-intercept of the function is (0,-1)

remember,[tex]\sf \displaystyle Q_{\text{vertex}}=g(x)=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

vertex:(h,k)

we got from the graph (h,k)=(0,-1)

substitute the value of h and k to the vertex form:

[tex]\displaystyle g(x)=a(x-0)^2+( - 1)[/tex]

simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle g(x)=ax^2- 1[/tex]

now we need to know figure out a

to do so take (-4,-5) coordinate pair which means if x=-4 then g(x)=-5

it is helpful to figure out a

substitute the value -4 for x and -5 for g(x):

[tex]\displaystyle - 5=a( - 4)^2- 1[/tex]

simplify square:

[tex]\displaystyle - 5=16a- 1[/tex]

add 1 to both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle - 4=16a[/tex]

divide both sides by 16:

[tex]\displaystyle a = - \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

our quadratic function is

[tex]\displaystyle g(x)= - \frac{1}{4} x^2- 1[/tex]

for f(x) and g(x) substitute the values 6,0 and 2,-4 to determine which function has the greatest value

let's work with f(x)

when x is 6 then f(x)

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(6) = \frac{2}{3} \times 6 - 8[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(6) = 2\times 2- 8[/tex]

simplify:

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(6) = 4- 8[/tex]

simplify substraction:

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(6) = - 4[/tex]

when x is 0 then f(x)

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(0) = \frac{2}{3} \times 0 - 8[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex] \displaystyle \: f(0) = - 8[/tex]

let's work with g(x) now

when x is 2 then g(x)

[tex]\displaystyle g(2)= - \frac{1}{4} \times 2^2- 1[/tex]

simplify square:

[tex]\displaystyle g(2)= - \frac{1}{4} \times 4- 1[/tex]

simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle g(2)= - 1- 1[/tex]

simplify substraction:

[tex]\displaystyle g(2)= -2[/tex]

when x is -4 then g(x)

[tex]\displaystyle g( - 4)= - \frac{1}{4} (- 4)^2- 1[/tex]

simplify square:

[tex]\displaystyle g( - 4)= - \frac{1}{4} \times 16- 1[/tex]

simplify;

[tex]\displaystyle g( - 4)= - 1 \times 4- 1[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex]\displaystyle g( - 4)= - 4- 1[/tex]

simplify subtraction:

[tex]\displaystyle g( - 4)= - 5[/tex]

so

[tex] \begin{array}{c c c} g(2) > f( 6) > g( - 4) > f(0)\\ - 2 > - 4 > - 5> - 8 \end{array}[/tex]

hence,

our answer choice is [tex]\displaystyle B.g(2)[/tex]

To determine which function has the greatest value, value of f(x) was calculated at given points. Without knowing the form of g(x), we can't calculate values g(2) and g(-4). Comparing calculated values of f(6) and f(0), f(6) has the greater value.

In order to answer this question, you should first calculate the value of the function f(x) at the given points. The function f(x) is given as f(x) = 2/3x − 8.

For f(6), substitute x = 6 into your function: f(6) = 2/3 * 6 - 8 = 4. For f(0), substitute x = 0: f(0) = 2/3 * 0 - 8 = -8.

Since we don't know the explicit form of function g(x), we can't calculate g(2) and g(-4). They could be any value depending on the form and graph of g(x), which is not provided. Therefore, we can only compare f(6) and f(0). Between these two, f(6) has the greater value.

Here, x represents the number of 20-pound boxes and y represents the number of 30 pound boxes.

As per the given condition: Vince loads 10 boxes into his truck.Some of the boxes weigh 20 pounds, and some weigh 30 pounds and the total weight of the boxes is 280 pounds.

⇒ x+ y =10                      .....[1]

and

20x+30y = 280               .....[2]

Multiply  equation [1]  by 20 we get;

[tex]20(x+y) = 20\cdot 10[/tex]

Using distributive property: [tex]a\cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b + a\cdot c[/tex]

20x + 20y = 200                   ....[3]

Subtract equation [3] from [2] we get;

[tex]20x+30y-20x-20y = 280-200[/tex]

Combine like terms;

10y = 80

Divide both sides by 10 we get;

y = 8

Substitute this y value in equation [1] we get;

x + 8 = 10

Subtract 8 from both sides we get;

x + 8 -8 =10-8

Simplify:

x = 2

Therefore, the pairs of equation are:  x+ y =10 and 20x+30y = 280

Vince has the number of 20-pound boxes is, 2 and the number of 30 pound boxes is, 8

17 regular popcorn bags and 23 super size bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

A group of 40 people went to the theme park. While there, each person bought popcorn.

Let the regular popcorn bags be = x

Let the super size bags be = y

[tex]x+y=40[/tex]        ................(1)

Next equation becomes:

[tex]6x+8y=286[/tex]        ...............(2)

Multiplying (1) by 6 : [tex]6x+6y=240[/tex]

Now subtracting this from (2) we get,

[tex]2y=46[/tex]

=> y = 23

And x = [tex]40-23[/tex]

=> x = 17

So, there were 17 regular popcorn bags and 23 super size bags that the group bought.

Look at the picture.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate x:

= [-2(5) + 10] - [-6(5) + 5(-4) + 12] + [(5) + 8(-4) - 16]

= [-10 + 10] - [-30 - 20 + 12] + [5 - 32 - 16]

= (0) - (-38) + (-43)

There are 10 students in a class: 5 boys and 5 girls then the probability that everyone in the group is a boy is 1/12.

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events. The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

The formula of probability is defined as the ratio of a number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.  

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes  

It is given that the Total number of students = 10

Number of boys = 5

Number of girls= 5

The number of ways to choose 5 students from 10 is ₁₀C₅.  

= 9! / 5! 5!      

= 252

The number of ways to choose 5 students from 10 is ₁₀C₅.  

The number of ways to choose 5 students from 7 girls is ₇C₅.

=  6! / 5! 2!    

= 21

Then the probability that everyone in the group is a boy

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes        

     = 21/252

     = 1/12.

Thus, the probability that everyone in the group is a boy is  1/12.

Answer:

x is the input, or independent variable and f(x) is the output, or dependent variable or quantity. f(2) represents the output (y-value) when x = 2. The value of f(2) is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the values of a variable depends on the other variable, then it called dependent variable.

If the value of a variable does not depend on the other, then it is called independent variable.

If a function is f(x)=x, then x is an independent variable and f(x) is a dependent variable.

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=10-x^3[/tex]

Here, x is the input, or independent variable and f(x) is the output, or dependent variable or quantity.

The notation f(a) represents the output (y-value) when x = a. So, f(2) represents the output (y-value) when x = 2.

Substitute x=2 in the given function.

[tex]f(2)=10-(2)^3[/tex]

[tex]f(2)=10-8[/tex]

[tex]f(2)=2[/tex]

The value of f(2) is 2.

For a function y = f(x) we define x as the independent variable and y as the dependent variable. y = f(x) means that "y depends on x in a given way, defined by f(x)".

Here we know that:

f(x) = 10 - x^3

1) What is the input, or independent variable?

The independent variable is the one inside the function, in this case, is x.

2) What is the output, or dependent variable or quantity?

in this case, the output is f(x), the value of the whole function evaluated in x.

(note that we do not have y = f(x), so y can't be the output, as we can't invent a variable and add it there.)

3) What does f(2) mean?

This means that we need to replace all the "x's" in the function by 2, we get:

f(2) = 10 - 2^3 = 2

so f(2) is the output when x = 2.

Answer:

[tex]5\sqrt{3}[/tex] inches long is the other leg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: If the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10 inches long and one of its legs is 5 inches long.

Hypotenuse side = 10 inches

Let length of other leg be x.

Pythagoras theorem states that in a right angle triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Then; by definition of Pythagoras theorem;

[tex]{\text}(Hypotenuse)^2 = (5)^2 + x^2[/tex]

[tex](10)^2 = 5^2 + x^2[/tex]

[tex]100 = 25 + x^2[/tex]

Subtract 25 on both sides we get;

[tex]100-25= 25 + x^2-25[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]75 = x^2[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]x = \sqrt{75} = 5\sqrt{3}[/tex] inches

Therefore, the sides of other leg is [tex]5\sqrt{3}[/tex] inches

Final answer:

Using the Pythagorean theorem, and knowing the length of the hypotenuse (10 inches) and one leg (5 inches), we calculate the other leg to be approximately 8.66 inches in length.

Explanation:

The question involves finding the length of the other leg of a right triangle when the lengths of the hypotenuse and one leg are known. By applying the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides (a and b). The theorem is usually written as a² + b² = c².

In this case, the hypotenuse (c) is given as 10 inches, and one leg (a) is 5 inches. To find the length of the other leg (b), rearrange the Pythagorean theorem as b² = c² - a². Substituting the known values gives us b² = 10² - 5² leading to b² = 100 - 25. Therefore, b² = 75. Taking the square root of both sides to solve for b gives us b = √75 which simplifies to approximately 8.66 inches when rounded to two decimal places.

Thus, the length of the other leg in the right triangle is approximately 8.66 inches.

QUESTION 5

The given polynomial function is [tex]y=-2x^{13}+25x^8-3[/tex].

This is already in standard form.

The degree of the polynomial is 13, which is odd.

The graph of the polynomial will rise at one end and fall at the other end.

The leading coefficient is negative, so the graph rises on the left and falls on the right.

Therefore as x approaches infinity, y will be approaching negative infinity.

The correct answer is D

The answers to the questions are as follows:

1. The correct option is B. degree=2 leading coefficient=4.

2. The correct option is c. 3. The lowest degree of the function graphed here is 3.

3.The correct option is D. 5.

4. The correct option is C. [tex]\( y = -4x^7 - 5x + 3 \).[/tex]

5.The correct option is d. [tex]\( y \)[/tex] approaches negative infinity.

1. The degree and leading coefficient of the function [tex]\( y = 4x^2 - 3x + 7 \)[/tex]are:

 - Degree = 2

 - Leading coefficient = 4

 Therefore, the correct option is B. degree=2 leading coefficient=4.

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable [tex]\( x \)[/tex] that appears in the polynomial with a non-zero coefficient. In the given function, the highest power of [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is 2 (in the term [tex]\( 4x^2 \))[/tex], so the degree is 2. The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the term with the highest power, which is 4 in this case.

2. The function graphed has two x intercepts.

The correct answer is C

3. The maximum number of x-intercepts that can be found on a graph with the equation [tex]\( y = ax^5 + cx^2 + f \)[/tex] is:

 - A. 2

 - C. 4

 - D. 5

The correct option is D. 5.

The degree of the polynomial [tex]\( y = ax^5 + cx^2 + f \)[/tex] is 5, which means it is a fifth-degree polynomial. The maximum number of x-intercepts (real roots) for a polynomial is equal to its degree, provided that the roots are counted with multiplicity and include complex roots. Since we are looking for the maximum number of x-intercepts, we consider the degree of the polynomial, which is 5.

4. The polynomial function that has a y-intercept of 3 is:

 - A. [tex]\( y = 2x^4 + x^2 - 3 \)[/tex]

 - B. [tex]\( y = 3x^2 + 4 \)[/tex]

 - C. [tex]\( y = -4x^7 - 5x + 3 \)[/tex]

 - D. [tex]\( y = 9x^3 + 3x^2 \)[/tex]

 The correct option is C. [tex]\( y = -4x^7 - 5x + 3 \).[/tex]

5. The end behavior of the function [tex]\( y = -2x^{13} + 25x^8 - 3 \) as \( x \)[/tex] approaches infinity is:

 - a. [tex]\( y = -3 \)[/tex]

 - b. [tex]\( y = 13 \)[/tex]

 - c. [tex]\( y \)[/tex] approaches infinity

 - d. [tex]\( y \)[/tex] approaches negative infinity

 The correct option is d. [tex]\( y \)[/tex] approaches negative infinity.

Answer: hot dog = $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent hot dogs and c represent bags of chips.

Customer 1: 4h + 2c = 9.00  →  3(4h + 2c = 9.00)  →  12h + 6c =  27.00

Customer 2: 5h + 3c = 11.75 → -2(5h + 3c = 11.75)  → -10h - 6c = -23.50

                                                                                       2h        =    3.50

                                                                                      ÷2               ÷2    

                                                                                        h        =    1.75

Final answer:

The cost of one hot dog is determined to be $1.75.

Explanation:

To find the cost of a hot dog, we will use the information given in two different customer purchases to set up a system of linear equations. Let's define H as the cost of one hot dog and C as the cost of a bag of chips. The first customer buys 4 hot dogs and 2 bags of chips for $9.00, which gives us the first equation:

4H + 2C = 9.00 ...(1)

The second customer buys 5 hot dogs and 3 bags of chips for $11.75, which provides us with the second equation:

5H + 3C = 11.75 ...(2)

With two equations, we can solve for H by either substitution or elimination. Let's multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 2 to eliminate C:  

Subtracting equation (4) from equation (3) gives us:

2H = 3.50

And dividing both sides by 2:

H = 1.75

Therefore, the cost of one hot dog is $1.75.

3/17 = x/544

If x=96 then there are 96 grams of zinc.

The amount of zinc that contains in the jar will be 96 grams based on the given ratio.

The ratio is the division of the two numbers.

For example, a/b, where a will be the numerator and b will be the denominator.

Proportion is the relation of a variable with another. It could be direct or inverse.

Suppose the amount of zinc is Z while the copper is C.

The ratio Z/C = 3/17

And, C = 544

Z/544 = 3/17

Z = (3/17)544 = 96 grams.

Hence "The amount of zinc that contains in the jar will be 96 grams based on the given ratio".
