Answer:

3^x9, 15, 33, 87, 249(4, 87) for example

Step-by-step explanation:

a) First differences of the f(x) values in the table are ...

  19 -13 = 6, 37 -19 = 18, 91 -37 = 54, 253 -91 = 162

The second differences are not constant:

  18 -6 = 12, 54 -18 = 36, 162 -54 = 108

But, we notice that both the first and second differences have a common ratio. This is characteristic of an exponential function. The common ratio is 18/6 = 3, so the parent function is 3^x.

b) Translating a function down 4 units subtracts 4 from each y-value. The values of f(x) in the table would be ...

  9, 15, 33, 87, 249

c) The x-values of the function stay the same for a vertical translation, so the points in the table of the transformed function are ...

  (x, f(x)) = (1, 9), (2, 15), (3, 33), (4, 87), (5, 249)

Answer: I think this is it:

The parent function of the function represented in the table is exponential. If function f was translated down 4 units, the f(x)-values would be decreased by 4. A point in the table for the transformed function would be (4,87)

Answers

Answer:

The  95% confidence interval is  [tex]98.27 < \mu < 102.53[/tex]

This interval means that there 95% confidence that the true mean is within this interval  

Yes i would agree with my friend because the lower and the upper limit 95% confidence interval for mean points scored at home is greater than 98 points

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  20

   The  sample mean is  [tex]\mu = 100.4[/tex]

     The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 4.86[/tex]

 

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as

                [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]

               [tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]

                [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is  

           [tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

            [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 4.86 }{ \sqrt{20 } }[/tex]

           [tex]E = 2.13[/tex]

The  95% confidence interval is  mathematically represented as

          [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]100.4 - 2.13 < \mu < 100.4 + 2.13[/tex]

          [tex]98.27 < \mu < 102.53[/tex]

An ice cream store makes 144 quarts of ice cream in 8 hours. How many quarts could be made in 12 hours?

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We know that the ice cream store makes 144 quarts in eight hours. What about in one hour? Let's divide this by eight to find out.

144/8=18

So, they make 18 quarts every hour. We want to figure out how many can be made in 12 hours. So, we just multiply 18 by 12!

18(12)=216

Therefore, 216 quarts of ice cream could be made in 12 hours.

Have a wonderful day! :D

The ice cream store will make 216 quarts of ice cream in 12 hours.

What is division?

Division is breaking a number up into an equal number of parts.

Answers

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI  of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean                  x₁ =    25

Sample variance               s₁  = 27

Sample size                       n₁  = 45

Old machine

Sample mean                    x₂ =  23  

Sample variance               s₂  = 7,56

Sample size                       n₂  = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                         H₀             x₂  -  x₁  = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ            x₂  -  x₁  <  0

CI = 90 %  ⇒  α =  10 %     α = 0,1      z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( x₂  -  x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂

s₁  = 27     ⇒    s₁²  =  729

n₁  = 45    ⇒   s₁² / n₁    = 16,2

s₂  = 7,56   ⇒    s₂²  = 57,15

n₂  = 36     ⇒    s₂² / n₂  =  1,5876

√s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂  =  √ 16,2  + 1.5876    = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s)  =  - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and  z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|  

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

please help. urgent. calculate the value of: E= x^3+1/x^3 if 1/x+x=4
(picture below)

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We see if we cube both sides of the second equation, then it looks more similar to the first equation (E = x^3 + 1/x^3)

(1/x + x)^3 = 4^3

1/x^3 + 3/x + 3x + x^3 = 64

2. Now we rearrange, because we see x^3 + 1/x^3 in the first equation in this equation

x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3x + 3/x = 64

3. We look at 3x + 3/x and see that it looks like the second equation, so we try factoring it

x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3(x + 1/x) = 64

we know x + 1/x = 4, so 3(x + 1/x) = 12

x^3 + 1/x^3 +12 = 64

4. Now we subtract and get our answer

x^3 + 1/x^3 = 52

What is the lateral surface area of a right hexagonal prism whose base is a regular hexagon with sides measuring 8 inches long and altitude measuring 6 inches tall?

Answers

Answer:

  288 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming your "altitude" is the height of the prism--the distance between bases, the lateral area is the sum of the areas of the six rectangular faces. Each of those has an area of ...

  (8 in)(6 in) = 48 in^2

so the 6 of them will have an area of ...

  lateral area = 6×48 in^2 = 288 in^2

_____

Comment on nomenclature

'Altitude' is usually associated with the height of a triangle. In the case of a regular polygon, the 'altitude' of a triangular section of the polygon is called the 'apothem', and is often designated using the letter 'a'. If the polygon is regular, the apothem can be calculated from the side length and the number of sides, but it is often given in problems involving area, perimeter, and/or volume.

The distance between the parallel bases of a prism is often referred to as the prism height or length. The use of the word 'altitude' is confusing in this case.

Since the lateral area is the product of the perimeter of the base and the distance between bases, we have to assume that your 'altitude' refers to the distance between bases. Otherwise, there is not sufficient information to work the problem.

A basketball player scored 33 points during a game by shooting 1-point free throws, 2-point field goals, and 3-point field goals. The player scored 17 times. She scored 3 more 2-point field goals than 1-point free throws. The system of equations below represents the situation, where x is the number of 1-point free throws, y is the number of 2-point field goals, and z is the number of 3-point field goals. x + y + z = 17 x + 2y + 3z = 33 y – x = 3

Answers

Answer:

No. of 1 pt free throws = 5, No. of 2 pt goals = 8, No. of 3 pt goals = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations : x + y + z = 17 [ Total times taken to score ]

1x + 2y + 3z = 33 [ Total Score ]

Also, y = x + 3

Putting the value of 'y' in both equations :

x + (x + 3)+ z = 17 → 2x + 3 + z = 17 → 2x + z = 14  (i)

1x + 2 (x + 3) + 3z = 33 →  x + 2x + 6 + 3z = 33 → 3x + 3z = 27 (ii)

Solving these equations :

From (i), z = 14 - 2x

Putting this value in (ii), 3x + 3(14 - 2x) = 27 → 3x + 42 - 6x = 27

42 - 3x = 27 → 3x = 15 → x = 5

y = x + 3 = 5 + 3 → y = 8

z = 17 - x - y → z = 17 - 5 - 8 = 17 - 13 → z = 4

Let A= {1 , 2 , 3 , ... ... ...... , 10} and R = {(a, b): a ∈ A , b ∈ A and a + 2b = 10} Find the domain and range of R.

Answers

In domain and range of a relation, if R be a relation from set A to set B, then

• The set of all first components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the domain of R.

Thus, Dom(R) = {a ∈ A: (a, b) ∈ R for some b ∈ B}.

• The set of all second components of the ordered pairs belonging to R is called the range of R.

Thus, range of R = {b ∈ B: (a, b) ∈R for some a ∈ A}.

Therefore, Domain (R) = {a : (a, b) ∈ R} and Range (R) = {b : (a, b) ∈ R}

there are 5 discs, 6 jump ropes, 3 balls, and 12 pieces of sidewalk chalk in a bin. If two items are drawn at random without replacement, what is the probability that both items removed are not jump ropes?

Answers

Answer: 0.584

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

5 discs

6 jump ropes

3 balls

12 pieces of sidewalk.

5 + 6 + 3 + 12 = 26

If all of them have exactly the same probability of being removed, then:

in the first selection, we do not want to remove a jump rope, so we can remove one disc, one ball or one piece of sidewalk.

The total number of those objects is:

5 + 3 + 12 = 20.

Then the probability of removing one of those objects is:

P1 = 20/26 = 0.769

Now in the second selection, we have the same situation, but now we have 25 objects in total, and because in the previous selection we removed one ball, or one disc, or one piece of sidewalk, the total number of these things now is 19.

So the probability of removing another object of that set is:

P2 = 19/25 = 0.76

The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, so we have:

P = P1*P2 = 0.769*0.76 = 0.584
