Answer 2

Answer:

0 < - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute

3x + 6 < 3(x-7)

3x + 6 < 3x - 21

2. Subtract 6 from both sides

3x + 6 <  3x - 21

3x + 6 - 6 < 3x - 21 - 6

3. Simplify

   subtract

    3x + 6 - 6 < 3x - 21 - 6

    3x <  3x - 21 - 6

   subtract

     3x < 3x - 21 - 6

     3x < 3x - 27

4. Subtract 3x from both sides

3x < 3x - 27

3x - 3x < 3x - 27 - 3x

5. Simplify

    combine like terms

     3x - 3x < 3x - 27 - 3x

     0 < 3x - 27 - 3x

     0 < 3x - 27 - 3x

The answer to the given question is Oscar wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles.

Calculation and Parameters

1. Table

km         miles

152          95

2.  Set the proportion with / and solve for k

So, Oscar is right.

Maria is wrong because:

If we solve the proportionality:

Explanation:

Alright so basically, 150 x 40 = 6000, right? So you want to find out how to find it using the division process. It is a whole number with no fractional part. As division with remainder the result of 6000 ÷ 40 = 150 R 0.

6000 divided by 40 ⇒ 150.

Here given that,

6000 is divisible by 40

since we know that,

Division is a process of repeated subtraction. It is the inverse action of multiplication. It is characterised as the formation of equal groupings. When we divide numbers, we split them down into smaller amounts so that the multiplication of those smaller numbers equals the larger number taken.

6000 is divisible by 40 we get,

⇒ 6000/40

⇒ 150

So, the quotient is 150

Hence,

After dividing 6000 by 40 we get 150.

How to determine  hypotenuse?

To determine the hypotenuse from the sides of a right triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem. Sum of squares is squared as c = √(a² + b²).

The longest side of a right-angled triangle, or the side opposite the right angle, exists comprehended as the hypotenuse in geometry. The Pythagorean theorem, which asserts that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, can be used to determine the length of the hypotenuse.

a² + b² = c²

⇒ c = √(a² + b²)

Where, a = 30 and b = 40, then

substitute the  values in the above equation, we get

write 2 quadratic equations (of any form) that are not equivalent, each with a vertex of (4,5)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]g(x)=-x^2+8x-11\\\\f(x)=x^2-8x+21[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally when you're given the vertex of a quadratic, you can express it in vertex form: [tex]f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex], where (h, k) is the vertex, and "a" is some constant value that determines the stretch/compression and the direction (up or down)

So we know that: (h, k) = (4, 5), meaning we can plug those values into the equation: [tex]f(x)=a(x-4)^2+5[/tex]

we can change the function by changing the value of the constant "a".

we can use two arbitrary values, but in this example I'll use -1 and 1.

this gives us the following functions: [tex]f(x)=(x-4)^2+5\\g(x)=-(x-4)^2+5[/tex]

these two functions are actually very similar, the only different is they're reflected across the x-axis (and some vertical shift) since the y-value is being negated, or at least part of it.

In your question it states (of any form), so I'm assuming we can leave it in vertex form, but just in case I'll expand them further into standard form

[tex]f(x)=(x-4)^2+5\\\\f(x)=(x-4)(x-4)+5\\\\f(x)=x(x-4)-4(x-4)+5\\\\f(x)=x^2-4x-4x+16+5\\\\f(x)=x^2-8x+21[/tex]

We can also expand the other function similarly.

[tex]g(x)=-(x-4)^2+5\\\\g(x)=-[(x-4)(x-4)]+5\\\\g(x)=-[x(x-4)-4(x-4)]+5\\\\g(x)=-[x^2-4x-4x+16]+5\\\\g(x)=-[x^2-8x+16]+5\\\\g(x)=-x^2+8x-16+5\\\\g(x)=-x^2+8x-11[/tex]

Although the "width" or "steepness" of a parabola can vary as well as its direction of opening, they all share the same fundamental "U" shape.

So, there are no x-intercepts on the graph of a particular quadratic function.

As is common knowledge, if a graph lacks an x-intercept, it will either end above or below the x-axis.This quadratic function has imaginary zeros.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values. We frequently observe constant change in specific values in our day-to-day situations. But the need to depict these shifting values is ongoing.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

let the number be x.

A certain number was multiplied by 5, then decreased by 3, then halved. The result was 0.3 less than the original number.

So, the mathematical expression is

Multiply both side by 2

5x-3 = 2x- 0.6

5x- 2x= -0.6 + 3

= [tex](147-1)^{2}[/tex][tex](147-1)^{2}[/tex]

= (21316) (21316)

Solve for Denominator [tex](3^{2}.7-1)^{3\\}[/tex]

= [tex](63-6)^{3}[/tex]

= 57³

Solve both, and simplify the equation.

= [tex]\frac{(21316) (21316)}{185193}[/tex]

= 2453.5

∴ Simplification is 2453.5

Have a nice day!

a geneticist is interested in the proportion of african males who have a certain minor blood disorder. in a random sample of 100 african males, 24 were found to be afflicted. (a) compute a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of african males who have this blood disorder. (b) what sample size (i.e., the number of african males) is needed if we wish to construct the 99% confidence interval of the proportion of african males with this blood disorder to be 0.20?

Answers

a) The confidence interval is (0.13, 0.35) for the males who have this blood disorder.

b) The number of African males or the sample size is 88 for the value of P to be 0.20

It is mentioned that a geneticist is interested in the proportion of the African males who have a certain minor blood disorder. In a random sample of 100 males, 24 were found to be afflicted.

So we have,

n (total males) = 100

X (afflicted males)= 24

Let P be the sample porportion,

P = X/ n

∴ P = 24 / 100 = 0.24

a) Here it is given to find the confidence interval if the proportion of males is 99% who have this blood disorder so,

c = 99 % = 0.99

∴ α = [tex]1 -[/tex] c = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

⇒ α/2 = 0.01/2 = 0.005

Using Z table,

Z of α/2 = [tex]Z_{0.005}[/tex] = 2.576

Margin of error E = [tex]Z_{0.005}\sqrt[2]{\frac{P(1-P)}{n} }[/tex]

                            = 2.576 x [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.24(1-0.24)}{100} }[/tex]

                            = 0.11

Now, 99 % confidence interval is P ± E

P-E < P < P +E

0.24 - 0.11 < P' < 0.24 + 0.11

P' = (0.13, 0.35) is the required confidence interval.

b) It is given to find the the number of African males when

P = 0.20

Z = 2.576

E = 0.11

Now E = [tex]Z_{0.005}\sqrt[2]{\frac{P(1-P)}{n} }[/tex]

⇒ 0.11 = 2.576 x [tex]\sqrt[2]{\frac{0.20(1-0.20)}{n} }[/tex]

⇒ 0.0427 = [tex]\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] = 9.37

⇒ n = [tex](9.37)^{2}[/tex]

⇒ n = 87.7969

Hence the approximate number of males is 88 for the proportion of males with this blood disorder to be 0.20
