In 2013, the Public Religion Research Institute conducted a survey of 1,033 adults, 18 years of age or older, in the continental United States. One of the questions on their survey was as follows:

Answer:

D.√85

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the distance between two points using the distance between two points formula

Distance between two points formula:

d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

Where the x and y values are derived from the given points

We are given the two points (-2,7) and (7,9)

Using these points let's define the variables ( variables are x1, x2, y1, and y2)

Remember points are written as follows (x,y)

The x value of the first point is -2 so x1 = -2

The x value of the second point is 7 so x2 = 7

The y value of the first point is 7 so y1 = 7

The y value of the second point is 9 so y2 = 9

Now that we have defined each variable let's find the distance between the two points

We can do this by substituting the values into the formula

Formula: d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

Variables: x1 = -2, x2 = 7, y1 = 7, y2 = 9

Substitute values in formula

d = √(7 - (-2))² + (9 - 7)²

Evaluation:

The two negative signs cancel out on 7-(-2) and it changes to +7

d = √ (7+2)² + (9-7)²

Add 7+2 and subtract 9 and 7

d = √ (9)² + (2)²

Simplify exponents 9² = 81 and 2² = 4

We then have d = √ 81 + 4

Finally we add 81 and 4

We get that the distance between the two points is √85

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12 , 2/3, 5/6,3/4

Get a common denominator of 12

5/12, 2/3 *4/4, 5/6*2/2, 3/4 *3/3

5/12, 8/12, 10/12, 9/12

The numerator closest to 0 is the fraction closest to 0

5/12

Graph 1

Part (a)

The function is increasing when x > 0. The function is decreasing when x < 0.

The function is never constant

An increasing portion is when the graph goes uphill when moving left to right. A decreasing portion goes in the opposite direction: it goes downhill when moving left to right.

The reason why the function is never constant is because there aren't any flat horizontal sections. Such sections are when x changes but y does not. No such sections occur.

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

Graph 1

Part (b)

Domain = set of all real numbers

Range = set of y values such that [tex]y \ge 0[/tex]

The domain is the set of all real numbers because we can plug in any value for x without any restriction. There are no division by zero errors to worry about, or square roots of negative numbers to worry about either.

The range is the set of nonnegative numbers as the graph indicates. The lowest y gets is y = 0.

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

Graph 1

Part (c)

The function is even

The function f(x) = 1.6x^12 is an even function due to the even number exponent. For any polynomial, as long as the exponents are all even, then the function itself is even. If all the exponents were odd, then the function would be odd. This applies to polynomials only. A power function is a specific type of polynomial.

Note in the graph, we have y axis symmetry. The mirror line is vertical and placed along the y axis. This is a visual trait of any even function.

We could use algebra to show that f(-x) = f(x) like so

f(x) = 1.6x^12

f(-x) = 1.6(-x)^12

f(-x) = 1.6x^12

The third step is possible because (-x)^12 = x^12 for all real numbers x. It's similar to how (-x)^2 = x^2. You could think of it like (-1)^2 = (1)^2

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

Graph 2

Part (a)

The function is decreasing when x < 0 and when x > 0

The function is never increasing

The function is never constant

In other words, the function is decreasing over the entire domain (see part b). The only time it's not decreasing is when x = 0.

The function is decreasing because the curve is going downhill when moving to the right. You can think of it like a roller coaster of sorts.

At no point of this curve goes uphill when moving to the right. Therefore, it is never increasing. The same idea applies to flat horizontal sections, so there are no constant intervals either.

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

Graph 2

Part (b)

Domain: x is any real number but [tex]x \ne 0[/tex]

Range: y is any real number but [tex]y \ne 0[/tex]

Explanation: If we tried plugging x = 0 into the function, we get a division by zero error. This doesn't happen with any other number. Therefore, the set of allowed inputs is any number but 0.

The range is a similar story. There's no way to get y = 0 as an output.

If we plugged y = 0 into the equation, then we'd get this

y = 17x^(-3)

0 = 17/(x^3)

There's no way to have the right hand side turn into 0. The numerator is 17 and won't change. Only the denominator changes. We can't have the denominator be 0.  

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

Graph 2

Part (c)

The function is odd

We can prove this by showing that f(-x) = -f(x)

f(x) = 17x^(-3)

f(-x) = 17(-x)^(-3)

f(-x) = 17* ( -(x)^(-3) )

f(-x) = -17x^(-3)

f(-x) = -f(x)

This is true for nearly all real numbers x, except we can't have x = 0.

Graphic 1:

(A) If f(x) = 1.6x ¹², then f '(x) = 19.2x ¹¹. Both f '(x) and x have the same sign, which means

• for -∞ < x < 0, we have f '(x) < 0, so that f(x) is decreasing on this interval

• for 0 < x < ∞, we have f '(x) > 0, so f(x) is increasing on this interval

f(x) is not constant anywhere on its domain.

(B) Speaking of domain, since f(x) is a polynomial (albeit only one term), it has

• a domain of all real numbers

• a range of {y ∈ ℝ : y = f(x) and y ≥ 0} (in other words, all real numbers y such that y = 1.6x ¹² and y is non-negative)

(C) This function is even, since

f(-x) = 1.6 (-x)¹² = (-1)¹² × 1.6x ¹² = 1.6x ¹² = f(x)

Graphic 2:

(A) Now if f(x) = 17/x ³, then f '(x) = -51/x ⁴. Because x ⁴ ≥ 0 for all x, this means f '(x) < 0 everywhere, except at x = 0. So f(x) is decreasing for (-∞ < x < 0) U (0 < x < ∞).

(B) f(x) has

• a domain of {x ∈ ℝ : x ≠ 0} (or all non-zero real numbers)

• a range of {y ∈ ℝ : y = f(x) and y ≠ 0} (also all non-zero reals)

(C) This function is odd:

f(-x) = 17/(-x)³ = 1/(-1)³ × 17/x ³ = -17/x ³ = -f(x)

Answer:

Part 1)

See Below.

Part 2)

[tex]\displaystyle (-0.179, -0.178) \cup (-0.010, 0.012)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

The linear approximation L for a function f at the point x = a is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle L \approx f'(a)(x-a) + f(a)[/tex]

We want to verify that the expression:

[tex]1-36x[/tex]

Is the linear approximation for the function:

[tex]\displaystyle f(x) = \frac{1}{(1+9x)^4}[/tex]

At x = 0.

So, find f'(x). We can use the chain rule:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = -4(1+9x)^{-4-1}\cdot (9)[/tex]

Simplify. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(x) = -\frac{36}{(1+9x)^{5}}[/tex]

Then the slope of the linear approximation at x = 0 will be:

[tex]\displaystyle f'(1) = -\frac{36}{(1+9(0))^5} = -36[/tex]

And the value of the function at x = 0 is:

[tex]\displaystyle f(0) = \frac{1}{(1+9(0))^4} = 1[/tex]

Thus, the linear approximation will be:

[tex]\displaystyle L = (-36)(x-(0)) + 1 = 1 - 36x[/tex]

Hence verified.

Part B)

We want to determine the values of x for which the linear approximation L is accurate to within 0.1.

In other words:

[tex]\displaystyle \left| f(x) - L(x) \right | \leq 0.1[/tex]

By definition:

[tex]\displaystyle -0.1\leq f(x) - L(x) \leq 0.1[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle -0.1 \leq \left(\frac{1}{(1+9x)^4} \right) - (1-36x) \leq 0.1[/tex]

We can solve this by using a graphing calculator. Please refer to the graph shown below.

We can see that the inequality is true (i.e. the graph is between y = 0.1 and y = -0.1) for x values between -0.179 and -0.178 as well as -0.010 and 0.012.

In interval notation:

[tex]\displaystyle (-0.179, -0.178) \cup (-0.010, 0.012)[/tex]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter of sphere B is 42, that means the radius is half, so it is 21.

The question is asking what multiplied by 24 is 21, or 21 divided by 24. 21/24 can be simplified to 7/8.

Answer:

percentage of paper used= 18%

Number of papers printed= 90

Total number of papers in the paper package= 'y'

total number of papers

= [tex]\frac{18}{100}[/tex] × y =90

transpose to the other side,

y= 90 ×[tex]\frac{100}{18}[/tex]

y=10 x100

y=1000

hence total number of papers in the package is 1000

Answer:

1.572

Step-by-step explanation:

For a standard normal distribution,

P(z > c) = 0.058

To obtain C ; we find the Zscore corresponding to the proportion given, which is to the right of the distribution ;

Using technology or table,

Zscore equivalent to P(Z > c) = 0.058 is 1.572

Hence, c = 1.572

Answer:

8.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the square area formula, a = s², where s is the side length of the square.

Plug in the area and solve for s:

a = s²

75 = s²

√75 = s

8.7 = s

So, to the nearest tenth of a foot, the height is 8.7 feet

Answer:

The slope is -4.

Slope(m)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

y2=-7, y1=-19, x2=-2, x1=1

(-7+19)/(-2-1)

=12/-3

=-4

Answer: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is: [tex]y_{2} -y_{1}/x_{2}-x_{1} \\[/tex]

So it is: (-7+19)/(-2-1) = 12/-3 = -4

Answer:

√5/121

Step-by-step explanation:

formula: a^½=√a

(⁵/¹²¹)^½=√⁵/¹²¹

Answer:

[tex]y = 2x +5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the Slope:

m = rise/run

[tex]m=\frac{9-3}{2-(-1)}=\frac{6}{3}=\boxed{2}[/tex]

The slope is 2.

Finding the y-intercept:

[tex]y = 2x + b\\\\9 = 2(2) + b\\\\9 = 4 + b\\\\9 - 4 = 4 - 4 + b\\\\\boxed{ 5 = b}[/tex]

The y-intercept is (0,5).

The equation should be: [tex]y = 2x +5[/tex].

Hope this helps.

Answer:

y = 2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation in slope intercept form, we first have to find the slope of the two points.

The formula for finding the slope is:

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

We are given the points:

(-1, 3) and (2, 9)

x1, y1 and x2, y2.

[tex]\frac{9-3}{2-(-1)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex] or 2 (the slope).

The slope intercept form is written as:

y= mx + b

y=2x+b

To find b, we can plug in either of the points given. Personally, I like to work with positive numbers. I'll be using the point (2, 9), however, either point will get you to the same answer.

y=2x+b

9=2(2)+b

9=4+b

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

5=b

Which then leaves us with the equation:

y = 2x+5

Answer:

0.0193 = 1.93% probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each parachute, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is damage, or there is not. The probability of there being damage on a parachute is independent of any other parachute, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

To find the probability of damage on a parachute, the normal distribution is used.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Probability of a parachute having damage.

The opening altitude actually has a normal distribution with mean value 185 and standard deviation 32 m, which means that [tex]\mu = 185, \sigma = 32[/tex]

Equipment damage will occur if the parachute opens at an altitude of less than 100 m, which means that the probability of damage is the p-value of  Z when X = 100. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{100 - 185}{32}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.66[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.66[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0039.

What is the probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes?

0.0039 probability of a parachute having damage, which means that [tex]p = 0.0039[/tex]

5 parachutes, which means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

This probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.0039)^{0}.(0.9961)^{5} = 0.9807[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.9807 = 0.0193[/tex]

0.0193 = 1.93% probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes.

The graph of the step function

Before plotting the graph, it should be noted that:

[tex]\le[/tex] and [tex]\ge[/tex] use closed circle at its end

[tex]<[/tex] and [tex]>[/tex] use open circle at its end

So, we have:
