How do we know if a function is a parabola like for instance, this one x^2 + x?

Answers

Answer 1
There is an easy way to tell whether the graph of a quadratic function opens upward or downward: if the leading coefficient is greater than zero, the parabola opens upward, and if the leading coefficient is less than zero, the parabola opens downward.

The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of a new bridge. A political study took a sample of 1100 voters in the town and found that 54% of the residents favored annexation. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is more than 50%. Determine the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value is  [tex]p-value = 0.0039854[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 1100

   The population proportion is  p = 0.50

  The sample proportion is  [tex]\^ p = 0.54[/tex]

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.50[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : p > 0.50[/tex]

 Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

     [tex]z = \frac{\^ p - p }{ \sqrt{\frac{ p(1 - p)}{n} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]z = \frac{ 0.54 - 0.54 }{ \sqrt{\frac{ 0.50 (1 - 0.50)}{1100} } }[/tex]

=>  [tex]z = 2.6533[/tex]

Generally from the z-table the probability of 2.6533 for a right tailed test is  

         [tex]p-value = 0.0039854[/tex]

Are the expressions –0.5(3x + 5) and
–1.5x + 2.5 equivalent? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer:

We can check this two ways: distributing the -0.5, and plugging in a number for x.

First, we can check this by distributing the -0.5.  Our equation becomes:

-1.5x -2.5 = -1.5x + 2.5

Clearly, this is not true.  We can show this one more time by plugging in a number for x.  I will use 2.

Now, we evaluate both sides and see if they are equal.

-3 - 2.5 = -3 + 2.5

-5.5 = 0.5

Clearly, this is not true.  These expressions are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:   Using the distributive property to expand the first expression, you would get -1.5x - 2.5. Since the constant term does not have the same sign as the second expression, the two expressions are not equivalent. Also, if you substitute in a value for x and evaluate each expression, the values will not be equal.

After 5.5 hours, Allie had traveled 264 miles. If she travels at a constant speed, how far will she have traveled in 6 hours?

Answers

Answer:

288 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x (speed)

5.5x = 264

Divide by 5.5

x = 48

y = 48x

Subsitute 6 hours in for x

y = 48(6)

y = 288

Answer: Allie went 288 miles in 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must find out how many miles Allie travled in one hour

= 264/5.5

= 48

Next, multiply the quotient by the number of hours to get the answer.

= 48 x 6

= 288

Joe can drive 194 miles in 4 hours. At the same
rate, how far can he drive in 6 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Lets take the miles for 6 hours to be x.

Using cross-multiplication, this problem can be solved.

194              4

x                  6

1164 = 4x

x = 291

Therefore, Joe drives 291 miles in 6 hours.

Ronald has a 10% solution of the fertilizer Super Grow. How much pure Super Grow should he add to the mixture to get 36 oz of a 12.5% concentration?

Answers

Answer:

1 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

% solution of super grow fertilizer = 10%

To obtain mixture of 36oz of a 12.5% concentration

Let oz of pure supergrowth to be added = s

(Initial % * (36 - s) + s) / 36 = target concentration

(10% * (36 - s) + s) / 36 = 12.5%

(0.1(36 - s) + s) / 36 = 0.125

Cross multiply:

0.1(36 - s) + s =. 0.125 * 36

3.6 - 0.1s + s = 4.5

3.6 + 0.9s = 4.5

0.9s = 4.5 - 3.6

0.9s = 0.9

s =. 0.9/0.9

s = 1

Hence, 1 oz of pure supergrowth should be added to the 10% solution to get 36 oz of a 12.5% concentration.

What is the fundamental principle of multiplication?

Multiplication is the mathematical operation that is used to determine the product of two or more numbers. If an event can occur in m different ways and if following it, a second event can occur in n different ways, then the two events in succession can occur in m × n different ways.

We are given that  lottery game called Quinto is played by choosing five numbers each, from 0 through 9

Looking around in your own country, discuss two practical applications in which “piecewise functions” are used either explicitly or implicitly

Answers

Answer:

Piecewise functions are functions that behave differently in different regions of the domain.

One example that you may see in your city is the case of the street illumination, such that can be modeled as:

x = time

Suppose that the lights are turned on at a given hour x0 and then turn off at the hour x1, we can define:

f(x) = 0 if x1 < x < x0

f(x) = 1 if x0 ≤ x ≤ x1

Where f(x) represents the intensity of the light at the time x.

Between x1 and x0, the lights are not working, so the illumination that they provide is zero.

Between x0 and x1 the lights are turned on, so the illumination is 1.

Another example can be the accurate description of the velocity of a car as a function of time.

For some pieces, the car will be stopped (maybe in a red light)

For some pieces, the car will be moving slow (maybe there is a lot of traffic)

For some pieces, the car will be moving fast or accelerating (in an empty street).

So we can define this motion as a piecewise function that obviously will depend on how the car moves.

b

[tex]E(Z) = 198[/tex]

c

[tex]E(Z) = -140  [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mean of X  is [tex] E(X)  =  20[/tex]

   The standard deviation of X is  [tex]s_1 = 5[/tex]

   The mean of Y  is [tex]\= y  =  40[/tex]

    The standard deviation of Y is  [tex]s_2 = 10[/tex]

Considering question a  

Generally the mean of   Z = 2 + 10X. is mathematically  represented

    [tex]E(Z) = E[2 + 10X ][/tex]

=> [tex]E(Z) =  2 +  10 E(X)[/tex]

=>  [tex]E(Z) =  2 +  10 * 20 [/tex]        

=>  [tex]E(Z) =  202 [/tex]          

Considering question b

Generally the mean of   Z = 10X - 2.. is mathematically  represented  

        [tex]E(Z) = E[10X -2 ][/tex]

   => [tex]E(Z) = 10E(X) - 2[/tex]

  =>  [tex]E(Z) = 10* 20  - 2[/tex]

Considering question c

     [tex]E(Z) = E[-3X -2Y ][/tex]

     [tex]E(Z) = -3 E(X) -2E(Y) [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

1/2 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Rosanne makes 1 1/2 liters of strawberry lemonade

She pours 1/4 of the lemonade into a thermos

The quantity left is

= 1 1/2 - 1/4

= 3/2 - 1/4

= 5/4

Her brother drinks 2/5 of the remaining lemonade

Therefore the quantity of lemonade that Rosanne brother drinks can be calculated as follows

= 2/5 × 5/4

=1/2
