Consider that the domain are the set of x values with a point on the curve.
In this case, based on the grap, you can notice that the domain is:
domain = (-8,2)
domain = {-8,-7,-6,-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2}
In this case you can observe that the circle has a left limit given by x = -8 (this can be notices by the subdivisions of the coordinate system) and a right limit given by x = 2. That's the reason why it is the interval of the domain.
The range are the set of y values with a point on the curve.
range = (-3,7)
range = {-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7}
In this case, you observe the down and up limits of the circle.
The data can be modeled by the following system of linear equations.
-3x+10y = 160
x+2y=164
Equation 1
Equation 2
Equation 1 is modeled for the percentage of never-married American adults, y, x years after 1970 and Equation 2 is modeled for the percentage of married
American adults, y, x years after 1970. Use these models to complete parts a and b.
a. Determine the year, rounded to the nearest year, when the percentage of never-married adults will be the same as the percentage of married adults. For
that year, approximately what percentage of Americans, rounded to the nearest percent, will belong to each group?
In year
the percentage of never-married adults will be the same as the percentage of married adults. For that year, approximately % percentage of
Americans will belong to each group.
After 4 years the percentage of never-married adults will be the same as the percentage of married adults.
The data can be modeled by the following system of linear equations.
-3x+10y = 160
x+2y=164
Multiply the second equation with 3
-3x + 10y = 160 .....equation 1
3x + 6y = 492........equation 2
adding equation 1 and 2
16y = 652
y = 40.75
x + 2y = 164
x = 164 - 2 (40.75)
x = 82.5
Let the number of years be t
-3x+10y x t = x+2y
t = 4x - 8y
t = 330 - 326
t = 4 years
Therefore, after 4 years the percentage of never-married adults will be the same as the percentage of married adults.

Omaha Beef Company purchased a delivery truck for $66,000. The residual value at the end of an estimated eight-year service life is expected to be $12,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation for the first six years. In the seventh year, the company now believes the truck will be useful for a total of 10 years (four more years), and the residual value will remain at $12,000. Calculate depreciation expense for the seventh year.
Given:
Company purchased = $66000
Find-:
Depreciation expense for the seventh year
Sol:
First, depreciate for 6 years using the regular method:
[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{\text{ Cost - salvage value}}{\text{ initial useful life}} \\ \\ =\frac{66000-12000}{8} \\ \\ =6750 \end{gathered}[/tex]The annual depreciation is 6750.
For 6 years

Answer:
8km /hr
1/ 8 of a litre.
Explanation:
We are told that Amelia drives 48 kilometres in 6 hours, this means the number of kilometres she drives per litre is
[tex]48\operatorname{km}\div6\text{litres}[/tex][tex]\frac{8\operatorname{km}}{\text{litre}}[/tex]Hence, Amelia drives 8 kilometres per litre.
The next question can be rephrased as, given that Amelia drives 8 km per litre, how many litres will it take to drive one kilometre?
To answer this question, we make use of the equation
[tex]\operatorname{km}\text{ travelled = 8km/litre }\cdot\text{ litres}[/tex]Now, we want
km travelled = 1 km
and the above equation gives
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1=\frac{8\operatorname{km}}{\text{litre}}\cdot\text{litres} \\ 1=8\cdot\text{litres} \end{gathered}[/tex]Dividing both sides by 8 gives
[tex]\text{litres}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]Hence, it takes 1/8 of a litre to drive 1 kilometre.

[tex]FV=P\mleft(1+\frac{r}{m}\mright)^{m\cdot t}[/tex]Where m is the number of compounding periods per year.
Leyla needs FV = $7000 for a future project. She can invest P = $5000 now at an annual rate of r = 10.5% = 0.105 compunded monthly. This means m = 12.
It's required to find the time required for her to have enough money for her project.
Substituting:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 7000=5000(1+\frac{0.105}{12})^{12t} \\ \text{Calculating:} \\ 7000=5000(1.00875)^{12t} \end{gathered}[/tex]Dividing by 5000:
[tex]\frac{7000}{5000}=(1.00875)^{12t}=1.4[/tex]Taking natural logarithms:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \ln (1.00875)^{12t}=\ln 1.4 \\ \text{Operating:} \\ 12t\ln (1.00875)^{}=\ln 1.4 \\ \text{Solving for t:} \\ t=\frac{\ln 1.4}{12\ln (1.00875)^{}} \\ t=3.22 \end{gathered}[/tex]It will take 3.22 years for Leila to have $7000

Can you please help me solve this and the test statistics and p value
The claim is that the population mean for the smartphone carrier's data speed at airports is less than 4.00 Mbps
The parameter of the study is the population mean, symbolized by the Greek letter mu "μ"
The researchers believe is that his value is less than 4, you can symbolize this as:
[tex]\mu<4[/tex]This expression does not include the "=" symbol, which indicates that it represents the alternative hypothesis. The null and alternative hypotheses are complementary, so if the alternative hypothesis represents the values of μ less than 4, then the null hypothesis, as its complement, should represent all other possible values, which are those greater than and equal to 4. You can represent this as:
[tex]\mu\ge4\text{ or simply }\mu=4[/tex]The statistical hypotheses for this test are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} H_0\colon\mu=4 \\ H_1\colon\mu<4 \end{gathered}[/tex]Option A.
In the display of technology, you can see the data calculated for the test.
The second value shown in the display corresponds to the value of the test statistic under the null hypothesis, you have to round it to two decimal places:
[tex]t_{H0}=-2.432925\approx-2.43[/tex]The value of the test statistic is -2.43
The p-value corresponds to the third value shown in the display.
The p-value is 0.009337
To make a decision over the hypothesis test using the p-value you have to follow the decision rule:
- If p-value ≥ α, do not reject the null hypotheses.
- If p-value < α, reject the null hypotheses.
The significance level is α= 0.05
Since the p-value (0.009337) is less than the significance level of 0.05, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.
Conclusion
So, at a 5% significance level, you can conclude that there is significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis (H₀: μ=4), which means that the population mean of the smartphone carrier's data speed at the airport is less than 4.00 Mbps.

[tex]C(x)=0.5x^2-260x+53298[/tex]Considering that "a" is a positive coefficient, then it achieves the minimum at:
[tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} x=-\frac{(-260)}{2(0.5)} \\ =\frac{260}{1} \\ =260 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, let's find the minimal value of the quadratic function, so we are going to replace x=260, in the function C(x):
[tex]\begin{gathered} C(260)=0.5(260)^2-260(260)+53298 \\ C(260)=0.5(67600)-67600+53298 \\ =33800-67600+53298 \\ =19498 \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally we obtain that the number of cars is 19498.
A coin is tossed nine times what is the probability of getting all tails express your answer as a simplified fraction or decimal rounded to four decimal places
The probability of getting a tail on each toss is:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]Since there is only one way of getting all tails, it follows that the required probability is given by:
[tex](\frac{1}{2})^9\approx0.0020[/tex]Hence, the required probability is approximately 0.0020
