The mean age of the students in this class is 15.75. The standard deviation is 1.55. Determine the number of standard deviations from the mean required to include
of the ages listed.
13, 17, 18, 15, 16, 14, 15, 18, 17, 16, 15, 16, 13, 15, 17, 17

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.774 standard deviations

Step-by-step explanation:

From the data, the minimum value is x = 13 and the maximum value is x' = 18. The mean X = 15.75 and the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

The difference between the mean and the minimum value is the deviation from the mean. So, X - x = 15.75 - 13 = 2.75. To find the number of standard deviations this is, we divide it by the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

So, 2.75/1.55 = 1.774.

So, the number of standard deviations to contain the value 13 is 1.774σ

Also, the difference between the maximum value and the mean is the deviation from the mean. So, x' - X = 18 - 15.75 = 2.25. To find the number of standard deviations this is, we divide it by the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

So, 2.25/1.55 = 1.452.

So, the number of standard deviations to contain the value 18 is 1.452σ

Since 1.774σ > 1.452σ and 1.774σ would contain both the values of 13 and 18, the number of standard deviations from the mean required to contain the values is  1.774 standard deviations.

Step-by-step explanation:

LKQ=180-78=102

KQN=180-67=113

LNQ=360-82-102-113=63

PNQ=180-63=117

Answer:

∠ LKQ = 102°, ∠ PNQ = 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ LKQ = 180° - 78° = 102° ( adjacent angles on a straight line )

∠ KQN = 180° - 67° = 113° ( adjacent angles on a straight line )

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360° , then

∠ LNQ = 360° - (102 + 113 + 82)° = 360° - 297° = 63°

Then

∠ PNQ = 180° - 63° = 117° ( adjacent angles on a straight line )

f(x+3) means replace x with x+3

F(x+3) = 6(x+3)+2

A; F(x+3) = 6x^2 + 20x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find it you just would multiply F(x) onto the other side. So it would look like this:

           F(x+3) = 6x + 2 (x+3)

Wendy brought 4 cakes and 2 pies for $20. The cost of a cake is twice the cost of 1 pie. A) What was the cost of one cake b)What was the cost of 1 pie?

Answers

Answer:

a. The cost of one cake is $4.

b. The cost of one pie is $2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of cake be C.Let the cost of pie be P

C = 2P  .....equation 1

4C + 2P = 20  .....equation 2

Substituting eqn 1 into eqn 2, we have;

4(2P) + 2P = 20

8P + 2P = 20

10P = 20

P = 20/10

Pie, P = $2

Next, we would determine the cost of a cake;

From equation 1;

C = 2P

Substituting the value of "P" we have;

C = 2 * 2

Cake, C = $4

Therefore, we would have the following answers;

a. The cost of one cake is $4.

b. The cost of one pie is $2.

Check:

From equation 2;

4C + 2P = 20

4(4) + 2(2) = 20

16 + 4 = 20

20 = 20

$54
$60

$1,620​

Answers

Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

The details given the in the question are;

The rate at which the landscape-supply company sells each cubic yard of mulch = $30 per cubic yard

The price the company charges for 54 cubic feet of mulch = Required

The factor for converting yard to feet is 1 yard = 3 feet

Therefore;

1 cubic yard = 1 yard × 1 yard × 1 yard = 3 feet × 3 feet × 3 feet = 27 cubic feet

∴ 2 cubic yard = 2 × 1 cubic yard = 2 × 27 cubic feet = 54 cubic feet

1 cubic yard = $30

∴ 2 cubic yard = 54 cubic feet = 2 × $30 = $60

10 POINTS!! PLEASE HELP!!

Answers

Answer:

only the third answer is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve it, we need to bring everything to the same denominator (the expression below the division line) or eliminate it completely.

how do we do it ? by multiplying everything with the same expression, so that we can eliminate the denominator for every term.

when looking for the best option I see that

(x² + 5x + 6) = (x + 2)×(x + 3)

that is great, because this covers all 3 denominators in our main expression.

so, we multiply everything by ((x+2)×(x+3)) and eliminate the denominators and the corresponding part of our multiplier.

that leaves us with

x×(x+3) + 2 = 5×(x+2)

now we simply simplify the expression

x² + 3x + 2 = 5x + 10

x² - 8x - 8 = 0

a squared equation has typically 2 solutions. and they are defined as

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = -8

c = -8

x = (8 ± sqrt(64 + 32)) / 2 = (8 ± sqrt(96))/2 =

= (8 ± sqrt(16×6))/2 = (8 ± 4×sqrt(6))/2 = 4 ± 2×sqrt(6)

x1 = 4 + 2×sqrt(6)

x2 = 4 - 2×sqrt(6)

both solutions are different from -2 or -3, therefore -2 and -3 are not solutions at all, and they cannot be extraneous solutions either for that reason.

and since we have 2 perfectly fine solutions, the answer options work no or only one solutions are wrong too.

3: (D)

4: (A)

5: (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

1: "Which could be the entire interval over which the function, f(x), is negative?"

When f(x) is negative, that means the values under the f(x) column is negative. As you can see, -16 & -8 are the only times when f(x) is negative. To find the interval, we are going to use x-values. Notice how as x continues to decrease, f(x) also decreases. So the answer is (-infinity, -6).

2: "Which equation represents the graphed function?"

Looking at the graph, we see that the y-intercept is (0, -2). However, all the answer choices have the correct y-intercept, so now we must focus on getting the correct slope. The slope is positive, so the answer is either (A) or (C). To find the correct answer, use the rise/run method from (0, -2) to (4, -1). You rise 1 and run 4, so the slope is 1/4. The answer is y = 1/4x - 2.

3: "If f(1) = 10, what is f(3)?"

I honestly don't know how to do this one. I looked it up on Brainly and some other people said the answer is 30. Credits to dragonheartedking on Brainly.

4: "Which table represents a linear function?"

Table A represents a linear function because each time x increases by 1, y increases by the same amount of 4 each time. It doesn't fluctuate like the rest of the answer choices.

5: "How many units below the y-intercept of g(x) is the y-intercept of f(x)?"

The y-intercept is the point where the function intersects with the y-axis. We start from (0, 2) and count the units as we reach (0, -1). The answer is 3 units.

Use the Factor Theorem to prove x^3 - 13x - 12 is divisible by x^2 – X – 12

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to prove that:

[tex]x^3-13x-12\text{ is divisible by } x^2-x-12[/tex]

We can factor the divisor:

[tex]x^2-x-12=(x-4)(x+3)[/tex]

According to the Factor Theorem, if we have a polynomial P(x) divided by a binomial in the form of (x - a) and if P(a) = 0, then the binomial is a factor of P(x).

Our two binomial factors our (x - 4) and (x + 3). Thus, a = 4 and a = -3.

Evaluate the polynomial for both of these factors:

[tex]P(4)=(4)^3-13(4)-12=0[/tex]

And:

[tex]P(-3)=(-3)^3-13(-3)-12=0[/tex]

Since both yielded zero, the original polynomial is divisible by both (x - 4) and (x + 3) or x² - x - 12. Hence:

[tex]x^3-13x-12\text{ is indeed divisible by } x^2-x-12[/tex]

Upon checkout, the fuel level of the vehicle will be determined by turning the vehicle on and visually inspecting the fuel gauge. The approximate fuel level will be recorded on the Check-Out sheet and verified with initials by the vehicle Renter. One copy of the Check-Out sheet will be given to the customer. Another copy will be kept with the on-site records of the vehicle. The rented vehicle must be returned with a minimum fuel level the same as that indicated on the Check-Out sheet. A vehicle returned with a fuel level less than the approximate level indicated on the Check-Out sheet will be completely refueled with on-site pumps. The price of the fuel used to refuel the vehicle will be added to the Renters total charge at a cost of $4.50 per gallon plus a $5.00 re-fueling charge. As a part of the check-out process, it is customary for a car rental agency to look over the car with the customer and fill out the Check-Out sheet together.
