The Precision Scientific Instrument Company manufactures thermometers that are supposed to give readings of o°C at the freezing point of water. Tests on a large sample of these thermometers reveal that at the freezing point of water, some give readings below O°C (denoted by negative numbers) and some give readings above O C (denoted by positive numbers). Assume that the mean reading is 0°C and the standard deviation of the readings is 1.00°C. Also assume that the frequency distribution of errors closely resembles the normal distribution. A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. A quality control analyst wants to examine thermometers that give readings in the bottom 4%. Find the temperature reading that separates the bottom 4% from the others. Round to two decimal places. A. -1.48B.-1.89 C. -1.63 D. -1.75

Answer:

a. (7, 27) Polly was incorrect.

b. (3, 1) Polly was correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

y = 4x - 1

2x - y = -13

We can solve this by substitution. Our first equation gives us y. Plug that into our second equation for each instance of y.

2x - y = -13

2x - (4x - 1) = -13

First distribute the negative sign across the parentheses.

2x - 4x + 1 = -13

Combine like terms.

-2x + 1 = -13

-2x = -14

Divide both sides by -2.

x = 7

Now that we know x, plug its value into one of our original equations.

y = 4x - 1

y = 4(7) - 1

Solve.

y = 28 - 1

y = 27

Our solution is (7, 27).

Let's check our answer by plugging both values into one of our original equations.

2x - y = -13

2(7) - 27 = -13

Solve.

14 - 27 = -13

-13 = -13

Your solution is correct.

Polly's solution was (-2, -9), which is incorrect.

b.

3x + 6y = 15

-2x + 3y = -3

Let's solve this by elimination. To solve by elimination means to eliminate a variable from the equation.

We have 3x & -2x and 6y & 3y. Notice that 6 and 3 can be simplified easily. To eliminate y, we want to multiply each factor of the second equation by -2.

-2x + 3y = -3

-2(-2x + 3y = -3)

4x - 6y = 6

Write the equations together.

3x + 6y = 15

4x - 6y = 6

Now we can see that the y variable will cancel out.

Apply the elimination method.

3x + 6y = 15

4x - 6y = 6

________

7x = 21

Divide both sides by 7.

x = 3

Now that we know x, plug its value into one of our original equations.

3x + 6y = 15

3(3) + 6y = 15

Solve.

9 + 6y = 15

6y = 15 - 9

6y = 6

y = 1

Our solution is (3, 1).

Let's check our answer by plugging both values into one of our original equations.

-2x + 3y = -3

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

Solve.

-6 + 3 = -3

-3 = -3

Your solution is correct.

Polly's solution was (3, 1), so she was correct.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Just substitute each value of x in the graph to find the correct function.

When be graph the functions given, we find that option A is correct.

To graph a function, you have to select x-values and plug them into the equation. Once you plug those values into the equation, you will get a y-value. Your x-values and your y-values make up your coordinates for a single point. Keep plugging in x-values to get coordinates to plot more points on the graph, and then you will see your graphed function once the dots are connected.

Using the graph,

For x < = -2, y = 5.

For -2 < x < 1, the function is a polynomial.

We have two options, either [tex]y = x^{2} -5\ or\ y = x^{2} +5[/tex]

The polynomial must have the point (0,-5) on it.

For [tex]y = x^{2} -5[/tex] , when x = 0, y = -5.

Hence, it is the correct option.

For x >= 1,

Using graph, we see that when y = 0, x lies between 3 and 4.

For equation, [tex]y = 2^{(x-2)} - 2\\[/tex], when y = 0, x = 3, so it is not correct.

For equation, [tex]y = 2^{(x-2)} - 3\\[/tex], when y = 0, x = 3.584, hence it is correct.

Your y= -x2 -10x +1 should be written as y = -x^2 -10x +1.  This is a quadratic function.  Because the coefficient (-1) of the x^2 term is negative, we know immediately that the graph (a parabola) opens down, and thus has a maximum.

Answer:

1 A. 1080°

1 B. 142°, 74°,74°, 125°, 125°

Step-by-step explanation:

1A.

The sum of the measure of the interior angle of a convex octagon is given as

S = (n-2)180°................. Equation 1

Where n = 8 sides

S = (8-2)180°

S = 6×180°

S = 1080°

1B.

The sum of the angle of a convex pentagon is given as

S = (5-2)180°

S = 3×180°

S = 540°

From the diagram,

2x+142+2x+(3x+14)+(3x+14) = 540

10x+170 = 540

10x = 540-170

10x = 370

x = 37°

Hence,

∠H = ∠K = 2(37) = 74°,

∠M = ∠L= (3×37)+14 = 111+14 = 125°

By looking at the graph and equation of the blue quadratic line, you know the y-intercept is 4. When you look at the red one you can see the y-intercept is 0 so then the equation should be g(x) = -x²

Answer:

Answer B

Step-by-step explanation:

If both the function have the same shape, it means that the function f(x) is just shifted downwards to obtain function g(x).

The function f(x) is given as,

[tex]f(x) = 4 - x^{2}[/tex]

Shifting the curve downwards by 4 unites, the function g(x) is obtained,

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

I think option B is the correct choice.

Answer:

Option B --> (8, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, we use the equation-

[tex]\frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2}[/tex]

The coordinates given were (8, -2) (8, -8)

x1= 8,

x2 = 8

y1 = -2

y2= -8

Substituting these values in the equation:-

[tex]\frac{8+ 8}{2} , \frac{-2 + -8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16}{2} , \frac{-10}{2}[/tex]

Coordinates of midpoint will be ---> (8, -5)
