A. G(x) = x + 2
B. G(x) = 4x
C. G(x) = x - 9
D. G(x) = -x

Answers

Answer:

  C. G(x) = x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the transformation ...

  g(x) = f(x -h) +k

causes parent function f(x) to be shifted right h units and up k units.

You're looking for a function that is shifted right, so you want something that looks like ...

  g(x) = f(x -constant) = x - constant

Choice C has that form:

  C. G(x) = x - 9

_____

A. the function is shifted up 2 units

B. the function is vertically expanded by a factor of 4 (no shift)

These figures are similar. The area of one is given. Find the area of the other. PLZ HELP Plz ps the answer is not 12

Answers

Answer:  6 square inches

==================================================

Explanation:

Dividing the side lengths, the scale factor is 6/3 = 2. This means the larger figure has a side length twice as long compared to its smaller counterpart.

How can we use this to figure out how the areas are connected? By simply squaring the scale factor to get 2^2 = 2*2 = 4, then we divide the larger area over 4 to get 24/4 = 6.

The longer side is 2 times longer

The larger area is 4 times larger

--------------------

Let's say we had a 3 by 3 square. It's area would be 9.

Also, let's say we had a 6 by 6 square. It's area is 36.

Notice the ratio of areas is 36/9 = 4, so the larger square is 4 times larger than the smaller. This 4 matches with what we got earlier.

----------------------

Another example:

square A is 7 by 7 with area 49

square B is 21 by 21 with area 441

ratio of areas is 441/49 = 9, which is exactly equal to 3^2, and the 3 comes from the ratio of the sides 21/7 = 3.

------------------------

So in short, you find the linear scale factor by dividing the sides. Then you square the result to get the area scale factor, which you use to find the smaller area.

linear scale factor = (new side)/(old side)

area scale factor = (linear scale factor)^2

smaller area = (larger area)/(area scale factor)

A coin is thrown independently 10 times to test the hypothesis that the probability of heads is 0.5 versus the alternative that the probability is not 0.5. The test rejects the null hypothesis if either 0 or 10 heads are observed.
(a) What is the significance level of the test?
(b) If, in fact, the probability of heads is 0.1, what is the power of the test?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The significance level of the test is 0.002.

(b) The power of the test is 0.3487.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a coin is thrown independently 10 times to test the hypothesis that the probability of heads is 0.5 versus the alternative that the probability is not 0.5.

The test rejects the null hypothesis if either 0 or 10 heads are observed.

Let p = probability of obtaining head.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.5

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : p [tex]\neq[/tex] 0.5

(a) The significance level of the test which is represented by [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the probability of Type I error.

Type I error states the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given the fact that the null hypothesis is true.

Here, the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis means we obtain the probability of observing either 0 or 10 heads, that is;

            P(Type I error) = [tex]\alpha[/tex]

         P(X = 0/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true) + P(X = 10/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true) = [tex]\alpha[/tex]

Also, the event of obtaining heads when a coin is thrown 10 times can be considered as a binomial experiment.

So, X ~ Binom(n = 10, p = 0.5)

P(X = 0/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true) + P(X = 10/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true) = [tex]\alpha[/tex]

[tex]\binom{10}{0}\times 0.5^{0} \times (1-0.5)^{10-0} +\binom{10}{10}\times 0.5^{10} \times (1-0.5)^{10-10}[/tex]  = [tex]\alpha[/tex]

[tex](1\times 1\times 0.5^{10}) +(1 \times 0.5^{10} \times 0.5^{0})[/tex] = [tex]\alpha[/tex]

[tex]\alpha[/tex] = 0.0019

So, the significance level of the test is 0.002.

(b) It is stated that the probability of heads is 0.1, and we have to find the power of the test.

Here the Type II error is used which states the probability of accepting the null hypothesis given the fact that the null hypothesis is false.

Also, the power of the test is represented by (1 - [tex]\beta[/tex]).

So, here, X ~ Binom(n = 10, p = 0.1)

[tex]1-\beta[/tex] = P(X = 0/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true) + P(X = 10/[tex]H_0[/tex] is true)

[tex]1-\beta[/tex] = [tex]\binom{10}{0}\times 0.1^{0} \times (1-0.1)^{10-0} +\binom{10}{10}\times 0.1^{10} \times (1-0.1)^{10-10}[/tex]  

[tex]1-\beta[/tex] = [tex](1\times 1\times 0.9^{10}) +(1 \times 0.1^{10} \times 0.9^{0})[/tex]

[tex]1-\beta[/tex] = 0.3487

Hence, the power of the test is 0.3487.

Answer:

1. $-50

2. $25

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If she had $150 in her bank account and bought a bike for $200, then that means she spent all of her money PLUS $50 extra then what she had.  That means $200-$150=$50.  Her $150 is spent and that $50 becomes negative because she paid $200 when she only had $150.

2.  If she deposits $75 in her account then it will be $75+(-50).  That translates to $75-$50 which is $25.  

+ and - = -

+ and + = +

- and - = +

Answer:

1. $-50

2. $25

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

We know that Clare originally had $150 in her account. She then buys a bike, which means she must have taken money out of her account for this purchase.

Since she spent $200, we need to subtract 200 from 150:

150 - 200 = -50

So, her account balance is $-50.

2.

Clare earns $75 later, which means she's receiving the money and can add it back into her account. Her current balance is -50, so we add 75 to -50:

-50 + 75 = $25

Thus, her account balance is now $25.

Find the standard form of the equation of the ellipse with the given characteristics. center: (0, 0) focus: (3, 0) vertex: (4, 0)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{4^2}+\frac{y^2}{\sqrt{7} ^2}=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the vertex of the parabola is at (4,0), it has the vertex on the x axis (horizontal axis). The standard equation of an ellipse with horizontal major axis is given by:

[tex]\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]

Where (h,k) is the center of the ellipse, a is the vertex and ±√(a²- b²) is the focus (c).

Since the ellipse center is at (0, 0), h = 0 and k = 0. Also the vertex is at (4, 0) therefore a = 0

To find b we use the equation of the focus which is:

[tex]c=\sqrt{a^2-b^2}\\ \\Substituing:\\\\3=\sqrt{4^2-b^2} \\4^2-b^2=3^2\\b^2=4^2-3^2\\b^2=16-9\\b^2=7\\b=\sqrt{7}[/tex]

Substituting the values of a, b, h and k:

[tex]\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1\\\\\frac{(x-0)^2}{4^2}+\frac{(y-0)^2}{\sqrt{7} ^2}=1\\\\\frac{x^2}{4^2}+\frac{y^2}{\sqrt{7} ^2}=1[/tex]

Replace y in the first equation with the second equation

3 ( 2x+1) -6x =3

6x +3 -6x = 3

3=3

This is always true so there are infinite solutions along the line y = 2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there!!!

you mean to solve it, right.

then let's begin...

3y-6x=3..........epuation 1.

y = 2x+1..........equation 2.

now, substituting the value y of equation 2 in equation 1. so, we get,

3y-6x=3

or, 3(2x+1) -6x = 3

or, 6x+3-6x=3

by simplifying it we get, 3=3

so, this equation can have infinite solution.

Answers

The correct answer is A. y = 2x +1

Explanation:

An equation is a statement that shows equality. In this context, the equation should lead to two equal numbers even if the values of y and x change. In this context, the correct equation is y= 2X + 1 because this is the only one, in which, the value of Y is always equivalent to 2x + 1. To prove this, let's replace y and x for the values of the table.

What is the solution to 5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3) ? Group of answer choices -12 6 0 -16

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3)

Multiply the terms in the bracket

5x - 15 = - 20x - 15

Group like terms

Send the constants to the right side of the line and those with variables to the left side

That's

5x + 20x = - 15 + 15

Simplify

25x = 0

Divide both sides by 25

We have the final answer as

x = 0

Hope this helps you

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3)

To find the solution to this equation, we have to get x by itself on one side of the equation.

First, distribute the 5 on the right side. Multiply each term by 5.

5x - 15= (5*-4x) + (5*-3)

5x-15 = -20x + (5*-3)

5x-15= -20x -15

Next, add 20x to both sides of the equation.

(5x+20x) -15 = (-20x+20x) -15

(5+20x) -15 = -15

25x -15=-15

Next, add 15 to both sides of the equation.

25x -15 +15 = -15+15

25x= -15+15

25x=0

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 25.

25x/25=0/25

x= 0/25

x= 0

The solution to this equation is x=0

Which of the following expressions represents a function? (5 points) a {(1, 2), (4, −2), (8, 3), (9, −3)} b y2 = 16 − x2 c 2x2 + y2 = 5 d x = 7

Answers

Answer: Option "a" is the only expression that represents a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function f(x) = y is a "operator" that takes an input element, x, and assigns it to only one output element, y.

So, if we have that for a given value of x.

f(x) = y and f(x) = h

where y and h are different values, then this is not a function, because is assigning the input value x to two different output values.

Let's see the different options:

a) {(1, 2), (4, −2), (8, 3), (9, −3)}

This points are of the form (x, y)

We can see that each value of x is assigned to only one value of y, so this can represent a function.

b)  y^2 = 16 − x^2

Ok, suppose that x = 0, then:

y^2 = 16 - 0 = 16

then we have that y*y = 16.

So y can take two different values:

y = 4 ---> 4*4 = 16

y = -4 ---> -4*-4 = 16.

So this is not a function.

c) 2x^2 + y^2 = 5

First, we want to isolate y in one side:

y^2 = 5 - 2*x^2

Here we have a similar case to the option b, and we can use a similar argument to prove that this is not a function, so we can discard this.

d) x = 7.

Ok, this is not a relation between two variables, so this is not a function, as if x is the input value, we have only one value of x that solves the equation.

= π r² = 3.1416  x  50  x  50  =  7854

Area of each 3/4 circle  

= 7854  x  ( 3/4 ) =   5890.5

Area of all four 3/4 circles

= 5890.5  x  4=23562

The TOTAL area will be the sum of all the areas

A  = 23562  +  10,000 = 33,562 square units

Therefore the area of the entire shape is 33,562 square units

NEED HELP NOW I have 31 stamps total. I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps and twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps. If my stamps are worth $1.78 altogether how many one cent stamps do I have?

Answers

x = number of 1-cent stamps

y = number of 8-cent stamps

z = number of 12-cent stamps

We have 31 stamps all together, so x+y+z = 31.

"I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps" means we have the equation x = y+8. Whatever y is, add 8 to it to get x. Solve for y to get y = x-8.

You also have "twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps", so x = 2z. Solving for z gets you z = 0.5x

-------------

x+y+z = 31

x+x-8+z = 31 ... y replaced with x-8

x+x-8+0.5x = 31 ... plug in z = 0.5x

2.5x-8 = 31

2.5x = 31+8

2.5x = 39

x = 39/2.5

x = 15.6

Your teacher made a typo somewhere because we should get a positive whole number result for x (since x is a count of how many 1-cent stamps we have).

The number of one-cent stamps is 14.

Total stamps = 31
We have three types of stamps: 1-cent stamps, 8-cent stamps, and 12-cent stamps.

The person has 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps.

The person has twice as many 1-cent stamps as 12-cent stamps.

We have to make equations with the given above statement.

Consider,

1-cent stamp = A

8-cent stamp = B

12-cent stamp = C

4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps: A = 4 + B.

A = 4 + B

B = A - 4..........(1)

Twice as many 1-cent stamps as 12-cent stamps: A = 2C.

A = 2C

C = A/2...............(2)

Total number of stamps = 31

A + B + C = 31................(3)

Putting (1) and (2) in (3)

we get,

A + ( A - 4 ) + A / 2 = 31

A + A - 4 + A / 2 = 31

2A - 4 + A / 2 = 31

2A + A / 2 = 31 + 4

(4A + A) / 2 = 35

4A + A = 35 x 2

5A = 70

A = 70 / 5

A = 14

Thus the number of 1-cent stamps is 14.
