A statement which could be true for g is that: A. g(-13) = 20.

A domain can be defined as the set of all real numbers for which a particular function is completely defined.

Since the domain of this function is given by -20 ≤ x ≤ 5, it simply means that the value of x must between -20 and 5. Also, with a range of -5 ≤ g(x) ≤ 45, the value of x must between -5 and 45.

Answer is slope of 5

Step by step

You can graph the slope as seen on the attached picture. You go up 30, you go right +6. Slope is y/x, so 30/6, equals 5

You can also use the slope formula

(y2-y1) over (x2-x1)

Using points on the graph

(6,0) and (0,-30)

(-30-0 ) over (0-6)

-30 over -6

-30/-6

= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine whether the change represents exponential growth or exponential decay by making a table for a few values of x.

0 -> [tex]38(1.09)^0[/tex] = 38 * 1 = 38

1 -> [tex]38(1.09)^1[/tex]= 38 * 1.09 = 41.42

2 -> 38(1.09)² = 38 * 1.09 * 1.09 = 45.1478

We see that y increases as x increases, which makes this function represent exponential growth.

The percentage rate of increase is how much the value of y increases by each time x increases.

Since we are multiplying by 1.09 each time, we are taking 109% of the previous y value to get the current y value. Hence, the rate of increase is 9%.

1) This is a Two tailed Test.

2) Decision rule is; If the p-value is greater than 4% fail to reject H₀.

3) P-value = 0.00968764 and so we reject H₀

We are given the hypothesis as;

Step-by-step explanation:

If the company sells 0 computers, they will not make a profit. They will lose $10780

The function is  given as:

P = 490n - 10780

A linear equation is represented as:

P = mn + c

Where

m represents the slope

By comparison, we have:

m = 490

This means that the slope is 490

Hence, the interpretation is

Slope; 490

The company earns $490 per computer sold

The function is  given as:

P = 490n - 10780

A linear equation is represented as:

P = mn + c

Where

c represents the vertical intercept

By comparison, we have:

c = -10780

This means that the vertical intercept is -10780

Hence, the interpretation is

Vertical intercept; -10780

If the company sells 0 computers, they will not make a profit. They will lose $10780

The function is  given as:

P = 490n - 10780

A linear equation is represented as:

P = mn + c

Where

-c/m represents the horizontal intercept

By comparison, we have:

-c/m = 10780/490

-c/m = 22

This means that the horizontal intercept is 22

Hence, the interpretation is

Horizontal intercept; 22

If the company sells 22 computers, they will break even. They will earn  $0

We have:

P = 490n - 10780

This gives

P = 490* 46 - 10780

P = 11760

If the company sells 46 computers, they will earn $11760

We have:

P = 490n - 10780

This gives

15190 = 490n - 10780

490n = 15190+10780

490n = 25970

n = 53

The company will earn $15190, if they sell 53 computers

The possible coordinates for the vertex D of the parallelogram could be (-4, 3)

It is given that A(1, –1), B (–1, 3), and C (4, –1) are the three vertices of the parallelogram.

Let us assume that the vertices are in the order A, C, B, and D where the coordinates of D are (a, b).

In this scenario, if we join AB and CD, they will become the diagonals of the parallelogram ABCD.

According to the properties of a parallelogram, diagonals bisect each other.

Hence, mid-point of AB = mid-point of CD

Now, according to the mid-point theorem, if mid-point of AB is given as (x,y), then,

x = (x₁ + x₂)/2 and y = (y₁ + y₂)/2

Here, for AC,

x₁ = 1, y₁ = -1

x₂ = -1, y₂ = 3

Then, x = ( 1 - 1)/2 and y = (-1 + 3)/2

(x, y) ≡ (0, 1)  ............. (1)

Since (x, y) is also the mid-point of CD, we also have,

x₁ = 4, y₁ = -1

x₂ = a, y₂ = b

Then, x = (4 + a)/2 and y = (-1 + b)/2

(x, y) ≡ ((4 + a)/2, (-1 + b)/2) ................... (2)

From (1) and (2),

(4+a)/2 = 0 and (-1+b)/2 = 1

4+a = 0 and (-1+b) = 2

a = -4 and b = 3

Hence, the fourth vertex D of the parallelogram can be possibly located at (-4, 3)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the mean and the standard deviation obtained from the last discussion and test the claim that the mean age of all books in the library is greater than 2005.

This is the last discussion:

The science portion of my library has roughly 400 books.

They are arranged, on shelves, in order of their Library of Congress

code and, within equal codes, by alphabetical order of author.

Sections Q and QA have a total of 108 books.

The bulk of the library was established in the early 1990s.

I used a deck of cards, removing the jokers and face cards, keeping

only aces (1) and "non-paints" (2 to 10). Starting from the start of

the first shelf, I would turn a card (revealing its number N) and I

would go to the Nth book. This uses ordinal numbers (1 would means the

"first" book, not a gap of 1).

The cards were shuffled sufficiently to assume that the cards have a

random order.

I sampled only the LC subsections Q and QA (therefore, not a true

sample of the entire library, as this classification is not purely

random).

Thus, I picked 21 books (the expected number being 108/5.5 = 19.6 --> 20 books)

The sampled dates of publication were (presented as an ordered set):

1967, 1968, 1969, 1975, 1979, 1983, 1984,

1984, 1985, 1989, 1990, 1990, 1991, 1991,

1991, 1991, 1992, 1992, 1992, 1997, 1999

The median date is 1990

The mean date is 1985.67

Variance = 84.93 ( Sum of (date-mean)^2 )

SQRT of variance = 9.2 (sample standard deviation)

The "sigma-one" confidence interval (containing 68% of the books), if

the sample were NOT skewed, and if the distribution were "normal"

would contain dates from "mean - 9.2" to "mean + 9.2"

Sigma-2 (95%) would have mean - 2(9.2) to mean + 2(9.2)

Sigma-3(99.7%) from "1985.67 - 3(9.2)" to "1985.67 + 3(9.2)"

1958.07 to 2012.6

There, you see one reason why the distribution is skewed (it is

possible to have books older than 1958, but it is impossible to have

book newer than 2012), but it still represents a usable model for the

library. If it applies to the entire library of 400 books, you would

expect one book (0.3% of 400) to fall outside the 3-sigma interval.

The parabola vertex is (1,5), the focus of the parabola is (1,6), and the directrix y = 4.

The graph of a parabolic equation is a U-shape curve graph that is established from a quadratic equation.

From the given information:

[tex]\mathbf{y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x-1)^2+5}[/tex]

The vertex of an up-down facing parabolic equation takes the form:

y = ax² + bx + c  is [tex]\mathbf{x_v = -\dfrac{b}{2a}}[/tex]

Rewriting the given equation:

[tex]\mathbf{y = \dfrac{x^2}{4}-\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{21}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_v = -\dfrac{b}{2a}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_v = -\dfrac{(-\dfrac{1}{2})}{2(\dfrac{1}{4})}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_v =1}[/tex]

Replacing the value of x into the equation, y becomes:

[tex]\mathbf{y_v = 5}[/tex]

Thus, the parabola vertex is (1,5)

From the vertex, the focus of the parabola is (1,6), and the directrix y = 4.
