Answer:

y = -0.5x - 3.5

Explanation:

Take two points: (1, -4), (3, -5)

Find slope:

[tex]\sf slope: \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2- x_1} \ \ where \ (x_1 , \ y_1), ( x_2 , \ y_2) \ are \ points[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf slope \ (m) : \dfrac{-5-(-4)}{3-1} = -\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Equation:

[tex]\sf y- y_1 = m (x - x_1)[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf y- (-4) = -\dfrac{1}{2} (x -1)[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf y+ 4 = -\dfrac{1}{2} x + \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf y = -\dfrac{1}{2} x + \dfrac{1}{2} - 4[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf y = -0.5 x -3.5[/tex]

The formula of a line is:

[tex]f(x) = kx + b[/tex]

k — stands for tg of line angle
b — stands for the y value of a point where the line crosses y axis.

We can see 2 points:
A (1, -4)
B (3, -5)

We can make a system of equations:

[tex]k*1+b=-4\\k*3+b=-5\\[/tex]

From second equation:

[tex]b = -5 - 3k[/tex]

Let's put b in first equation:

[tex]k-5-3k=-4\\-2k=1\\k=- \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Now we can find b:

[tex]b = -5 -3*- \frac{1}{2}\\b = -5 + 1.5\\b = -3.5[/tex]

The answer is:

20+(5•9).        $65

Step-by-step explanation:

First term f = 1

If first four terms are f, f + d, f + 2d, f + 3d

f + f + d + f + 2d + f + 3d = 100

4f + 6d = 100 (divided by 2 , both sides )

2f + 3d = 50

2 + 3d = 50

3d = 50 – 2

3d = 48

d = 48/3

d = 16

Answer:

300 meters per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Determine the fraction of the total distance for each part of the race.

Given:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \implies \sf 2nd\:part & = \sf \dfrac{2}{5}\:of\:remaining\:distance\\ & = \sf \dfrac{2}{5} \times\left(1-\dfrac{4}{9}\right)\\& = \sf \dfrac{2}{9}\:of\:total\:distance\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies \sf 3rd\:part & = \sf 1-1st\:part-2nd\:part\\& = \sf 1-\dfrac{4}{9}-\dfrac{2}{9}\\& = \sf \dfrac{1}{3}\:of\:total\:distance\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 2

Determine the distance of the third part of the race.

Given:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\sf Distance & = \sf speed \times time\\& = \sf 300 \times 15\\& = \sf 4500 \:\:meters\end{aligned}[/tex]

Step 3

If the third part of the race (which is 1/3 of the total distance) is 4500m, then the distance of the whole race is:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \sf Total\:distance & = \sf 4500 \times 3\\& = \sf 13500\:meters \end{aligned}[/tex]

Answer:

m = -3

c = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is given in slope-intercept form. The general structure of these equations is:

y = mx + c

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "c" represents the y-intercept. As you have been given the entire equation, the only thing you have to do is rearrange the equation to find which values correspond with the variables.

y = 2 - 3x  -----> y = -3x + 2

Therefore,

m = -3

c = 2

The equation of the function is f(x) = x(x + 2)(x -1)(x -3)

From the graph, we have the following highlight:

The above means that:

f(x) approaches positive infinity irrespective of the x value

Hence, the end behavior of the function is:

[tex]\mathrm{as}\:x\to \:+\infty \:,\:f\left(x\right)\to \:+\infty \:,\:\:\mathrm{and\:as}\:x\to \:-\infty \:,\:f\left(x\right)\to \:+\infty \:[/tex]

Since, the function opens upward.

Then the sign of the leading coefficient is positive

This is the point, where the graph crosses the x-axis.

From the graph, we have the zeros to be:

x = -2, x = 0, x = 1 and x = 3

Since the graph crosses the x-axis at this point, then the multiplicity of the zeros is 1

In (c), we have:

x = -2, x = 0, x = 1 and x = 3

Rewrite as:

x + 2= 0, x = 0, x - 1 = 0 and x - 3 = 0

Multiply these values

f(x) = x(x + 2)(x -1)(x -3)

Hence, the equation of the function is f(x) = x(x + 2)(x -1)(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Formula: [tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Quadratic Equation: ax² + bx + x = 0, where a ≠ 0

Given equation: x² + 6x + 9 = 20

Step 1: Subtract 20 from both sides.

x² + 6x + 9 - 20 = 20 - 20

⇒ x² + 6x - 11 = 0

Step 2: Identify the values of a, b, and c and substitute them in the formula.

⇒ a = 1, b = 6, c = -11

[tex]x=\dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{\bold{6^2}-4(1)(-11)}}{\bold{2(1)}}\\\\x=\dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{36\bold{\ - \ 4(-11)}}}{2}\\\\x=\dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{\bold{36+44}}}{2}\\\\x=\dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{80}}{2}\\\\x=\dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{16\times5}}{2}\implies \dfrac{-6\pm\sqrt{\bold{16}}\times\sqrt{5}}{2} \\\\x=\dfrac{-6\pm4\sqrt{5}}{2}[/tex]

Step 3: Separate into possible cases.

[tex]x_1=\dfrac{-6-4\sqrt{5}}{2}\implies \dfrac{-6}{2}+\dfrac{-4\sqrt{5}}{2}\implies \boxed{-3-2\sqrt{5}\ \ \textsf{or}\ -2\sqrt{5}-3}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-6+4\sqrt{5}}{2}\implies \dfrac{-6}{2}+\dfrac{4\sqrt{5}}{2}\implies \boxed{-3+2\sqrt{5}\ \ \textsf{or}\ \ 2\sqrt{5}-3}[/tex]

Answer:

134

Step-by-step explanation:

the "nth" term of a sequence means that you can plug in the term number to get the term value

so, if

  11n + 2 is the sequence

  11(12) + 2 is the 12th term

  132 + 2 is the 12th term

  134 is the 12th term

By plugging in the term "place" (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.) for the variable "n", we get a term value.

hope this helps!!

The 12th term of the sequence is 133

The nth term is given as:

Tn = 11n + 1

The 12th term is calculated as:

T(12) = 11(12) + 1

Evaluate

T(12) = 133

The t-test might be more useful in actual practice when standard deviation or variance is unknown.

The t-test is used to determine how the averages of various data sets differ from one another.

When variance is not provided, the T-test, a particular kind of parametric test, is used to determine how the means of two sets of data differ from one another. When variance is provided, the Z-test indicates a hypothesis test that determines whether the means of two datasets differ from one another.

Example of t-test: If you flip a coin 1,000 times, for instance, you can discover that the outcome is distributed normally over all trials.

Example of z-test: We are conducting research using information gathered from cohorts of students who have taken Elementary Statistics in the past.

T-tests are typically more suitable when addressing issues with small sample sizes, whereas z-tests are suitable for large sample sizes.

Using the t-test for an ordinal variable, their frequency is not even close to a normal distribution, and the arithmetic mean offers an unsuitable measure of location.

Because we frequently don't know the population standard deviation, Z-Tests have this drawback.

Answer:

111 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 11.4

d = 5  so  r (radius) = 2.5

Surface Area of a Cone Formula: πr^2 + πrs

s represents the slant height of the cone, lets represent this with a drawing.

We have the values of h and r, but we don't have the value of s, meaning we have to find it. We can do this by using pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

These three values can come together to create a right triangle which we can seperate from the rest of the diagram, now we can find s.

s = √(11.4^2 + 2.5^2)   so  s = 11.67

now that we have all of the pieces, we can plug back into the original surface area formula. πr^2 + πrs

π(2.5^2) + π(2.5)(11.67) = 111.29 cm^2 or 111 cm^2

The surface area of the solid cone requiring paint will be 111 square cm.

Let d be the diameter of the base circle, l be the slant height, and h be the height of the cone.

Then the lateral surface area of the cone will be

SA = πrl + πr²

Then the slant height is given as

l² = r² + h²

The exterior of a solid cone is painted. The height of the cone is 11.4 centimeters, and the diameter of its opening is 5 centimeters.

Then the radius of the base circle will be

r = 5 / 2

r = 2.5 cm

The length of the slant height will be

l² = 11.4² + 2.5²

l² = 136.21

 l = 11.67

Then the surface area of the solid cone requiring paint will be

SA = π × 2.5 × 11.67 + π × 2.5²

SA = 29.18π + 6.25π

SA = 35.43π

SA = 111.3

SA ≈ 111 square cm

The surface area of the solid cone requiring paint will be 111 square cm.

To solve this, we need to isolate the "f" on the middle.

First, we can subtract 1 in both sides to get:

-2  ≤ -2f ≤ 8

Now we need to divide both sides by -2, remember that this will change the direction of the symbols:

Which series of transformations will not map figure H onto itself?

A. O(x+0, y-2), reflection over y = 1

B. O(x+2, y-0), reflection over x=3

C. O(x+3, y+3), reflection over y = -x +7

D. O(x-3, y-3), reflection over y = -x +2

The correct option is Option D: the series of transformation O(x-3, y-3), reflection over y = -x +2 will not map figure H onto itself.

Here given a square with its 4 vertices at coordinates (2,1), (1,2), (2,3) and (3,2).

By checking all the options

Option A:

1st transformation (x+0, y-2) will map 4 vertices of the square into points of coordinates such as

(2,1) → (2,-1)

(1,2) → (1,0)

(2,3) → (2,1)

(3,2) → (3,0)

next transformation which is the reflection over y=1 gives the coordinates (x,2-y)

(2,-1) → (2,3)

(1,0) → (1,2)

(2,1) → (2,1)

(3,0) → (3,2)

These new points are exactly the same as the vertices of the initial square.

Option B:

1st transformation (x+2, y-0) will map 4 vertices of the square into points of coordinates such as

(2,1) → (4,1)

(1,2) → (3,2)

(2,3) → (4,3)

(3,2) → (5,2)

next transformation which is the reflection over x=3 gives the coordinates (6-x,y)

(4,1) → (2,1)

(3,2) → (3,2)

(4,3) → (2,3)

(5,2) → (1,2)

These new points are exactly the same as the vertices of the initial square.

Option C:

1st transformation (x+3, y+3) will map 4 vertices of the square into points of coordinates such as

(2,1) → (5,4)

(1,2) → (4,5)

(2,3) → (5,6)

(3,2) → (6,5)

next transformation which is the reflection over y=-x+7 gives the coordinates such as

(5,4) → (3,2)

(4,5) → (2,3)

(5,6) → (1,2)

(6,5) → (2,1)

These new points are exactly the same as the vertices of the initial square.

Option D:

1st transformation (x-3, y-3) will map 4 vertices of the square into points of coordinates such as

(2,1) → (-1,-2)

(1,2) → (-2,-1)

(2,3) → (-1,0)

(3,2) → (0,-1)

next transformation which is the reflection over y=-x+2 gives the coordinates such as

(-1,-2) → (4,3)

(-2,-1) → (3,4)

(-1,0) → (2,3)

(0,-1) → (3,2)

These new points are not matching with the vertices of the initial square.

Therefore the correct option is Option D: O(x-3, y-3), reflection over y = -x +2 will not map figure H onto itself.

Answer:

You can make 10 tortillas with one and a half kilograms of ground meat

Step-by-step explanation:

one and a half kilograms to grams

1.5kg x 1000 = 1500g

150 grams prepared to make 1 hamburger

than, 150 x h = 1500

h = 1500 / 150

h = 10

Answer:

10 tortillas

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert kilograms to grams:

   1 kg = 1000 g

⇒ 1.5 kg = 1500 g

Let x = number of tortillas made with 1500 g of meat

Set up a ratio of tortillas and meat and solve for x:

⇒ 1 tortilla : x tortillas = 150 g meat : 1500 g meat

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{150}{1500}[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 1 \cdot 1500= 150 \cdot x[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 1500=150x[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf x=\dfrac{1500}{150}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf x=10[/tex]

Therefore, 10 tortillas can be made with 1.5 kg of ground meat.

First, we need to isolate x on both inequalities, we will get:

3x ≤ 12

x ≤ 12/3

x ≤ 4

(As you can see, because we don't have the negative sign, this inequality is different to all the ones in the options).

And for the other:

2x + 3 > 11

2x > 11 - 3

x > 8/2

x > 4

So neither of the options is actually correct.

If we instead write the first inequality as:

3x ≤ -12

We would solve this as:

x ≤ -4

And in that case, our two inequalities are:

x ≤ -4

x > 4

So the correct graph is graph D.

Answer:

-4

+3

12

-0.5, 12.25

x = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The x intercepts are the values of x when y = 0 ie the roots of the equation
[tex]-x^2 -x +12 = 0[/tex]

or

[tex]x^2 + x - 12 = 0[/tex]

We can re-write the above as:
(x+4) (x-3) = 0
This gives the two roots as x = -4 and x = +3. Leftmost (smallest) root is -4 and rightmost(largest) root is +3

y intercept is when x = 0. Plugging into the original equation, y value at x = 0 is 12

Vertex x value is given by the formula -b/2a where a is the coefficient of x^2 and b the coefficient of x

Here a = -1, b= -1 so vertex x value = - (-1)/(-1).2 = - 1/2 = -0.5

Plugging this value of x into the original function gives the vertex y value
[tex]y = - (0.5^{2}) - (-0.5) + 12\\= -0.25 + 0.5 + 12 = 12.25[/tex]

The line of symmetry is the vertical line corresponding to the vertex x value so line of symmetry is at x = -0.5

The graph of the quadratic function shows these values
