Estimate f(4.04) for f as in the figure

Answers

Answer:

2.013  to 3 DP's.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(4.04)  will be very close to the tangent line.

Equation of tangent line

is y - 4 = m(x - 10)

m = (4-2) / (10-4) = 1/3

y - 4 = 1/3(x - 10)

y = 1/3x - 10/3 + 4

y = 1/3x + 2/3

So the require estimate of f(4.04)

= 1/3(4.04) + 2/3

How many distinct 3 digit code can i create such that this code is divisible by 4.
For example these codes are rejected since they have repeating numbers/less than 3 digits:
024/100/112/996/444

Answers

The other answer is just wrong.

There are 9•9•8 = 648 distinct 3-digit codes. The first digit can be any numeral from 1-9, the next digit can be any from 0-9 minus the one used in the first position, and the last digit can be any from 0-9 minus both the numerals used in the first two positions.

But that doesn't even account for the divisibility constraint.

Let the code be [tex]abc[/tex]. We can expand this as

[tex]100a + 10b + c[/tex]

In order for this to be divisible by 4, we observe that

[tex]100a + 8b + 2b + c = 4 (25a + 2b) + (2b+c)[/tex]

so we only need [tex]2b+c[/tex] to be divisible by 4.

The last digit must be even, so there are only 5 choices for the last digit. I list the possibilities and outcomes below. For some integer [tex]k[/tex], we need

[tex]c=0 \implies 2b=4k \implies b=2k[/tex]

[tex]c=2 \implies 2b+2=4k \implies b = 2k-1[/tex]

[tex]c=4 \implies 2b+4 = 4k \implies b = 2(k-1)[/tex]

[tex]c=6 \implies 2b+6 = 4k \implies b = 2k-3[/tex]

[tex]c=8 \implies 2b+8=4k \implies b = 2(k-2)[/tex]

Ignoring [tex]a[/tex] for the moment, in the cases of [tex]c\in\{0,4,8\}[/tex], [tex]b[/tex] is also even. This leaves 3 choices for [tex]c[/tex] and 2 choices for [tex]b[/tex].

Likewise, in the cases of [tex]c\in\{2,6\}[/tex], [tex]b[/tex] is odd. This leaves 2 choices for [tex]c[/tex] and 5 choices for [tex]b[/tex].

Now taking into account the choice for [tex]a[/tex], we have the following decision tree.

• If [tex]a\in\{2,6\}[/tex] and [tex]c\in\{0,4,8\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{0,2,4,6,8\}\setminus\{a,c\}[/tex] - a total of 2•3•3 = 18 codes.

• If [tex]a\in\{4,8\}[/tex] and [tex]c\in\{0,4,8\}\setminus\{a\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{0,2,4,6,8\}\setminus\{a,c\}[/tex] - a total of 2•2•3 = 12 codes.

• If [tex]a\in\{2,6\}[/tex] and [tex]c\in\{2,6\}\setminus\{a\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{1,3,5,7,9\}\setminus\{a,c\}[/tex] - a total of 2•1•5 = 10 codes.

• If [tex]a\in\{4,8\}[/tex] and [tex]c \in\{2,6\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{1,3,5,7,9\}[/tex] - a total of 2•2•5 = 20 codes.

• If [tex]a\in\{1,3,5,7,9\}[/tex] and [tex]c\in\{0,4,8\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{0,2,4,6,8\}\setminus\{c\}[/tex] - a total of 5•3•4 = 60 codes.

• If [tex]a\in\{1,3,5,7,9\}[/tex] and [tex]c\in\{2,6\}[/tex], then [tex]b\in\{1,3,5,7,9\}\setminus\{a\}[/tex] - a total of 5•2•4 = 40 codes.

Hence there are a total of 18 + 12 + 10 + 20 + 60 + 40 = 160 codes.

The sales tax on a table saw is $8.25.
a. What is the purchase price of the table saw (before tax) if the sales tax rate is 5.5%?
b. Find the total price of the table saw.

Answers

Answer:

  a.  $150

  b.  $158.25

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The amount of tax is the product of the tax rate and the price being taxed. This relation can let us solve for the price.

  tax = tax rate × price

  price = tax/(tax rate) = $8.25/0.055 = $150.00

The purchase price of the table saw is $150.00.

__

b.

The total price is the sum of the purchase price and the tax.

  total price = price + tax

  total price = $150.00 +8.25 = $158.25

The total price of the table saw is $158.25.

12x^2/28x

Answers

Answer: (-6x - 5) • (2x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

((0 -  (22•3x2)) -  28x) -  15

Pull out like factors :

-12x2 - 28x - 15  =   -1 • (12x2 + 28x + 15)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

3.2     Factoring  12x2 + 28x + 15

The first term is,  12x2  its coefficient is  12 .

The middle term is,  +28x  its coefficient is  28 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +15

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   12 • 15 = 180

Step-2 : Find two factors of  180  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   28 .

     -180    +    -1    =    -181

     -90    +    -2    =    -92

     -60    +    -3    =    -63

     -45    +    -4    =    -49

     -36    +    -5    =    -41

     -30    +    -6    =    -36

     -20    +    -9    =    -29

     -18    +    -10    =    -28

     -15    +    -12    =    -27

     -12    +    -15    =    -27

     -10    +    -18    =    -28

     -9    +    -20    =    -29

     -6    +    -30    =    -36

     -5    +    -36    =    -41

     -4    +    -45    =    -49

     -3    +    -60    =    -63

     -2    +    -90    =    -92

     -1    +    -180    =    -181

     1    +    180    =    181

     2    +    90    =    92

     3    +    60    =    63

     4    +    45    =    49

     5    +    36    =    41

     6    +    30    =    36

     9    +    20    =    29

     10    +    18    =    28    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  10  and  18

                    12x2 + 10x + 18x + 15

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   2x • (6x+5)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   3 • (6x+5)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (2x+3)  •  (6x+5)

Answer:

  1 ≤ x < 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) is defined as increasing on the domain (-8, 4), so the ordering of the arguments is not changed by the function. We can solve the inequality as though f(x) = x, which is increasing everywhere.

Inequality solutions

  f(4x -3) ≥ f(2 -x²)

  4x -3 ≥ 2 -x² . . . . . . using our assumed definition of f(x)

  x² +4x -5 ≥ 0 . . . . . subtract 2-x²

  (x -1)(x +4) ≥ 0 . . . . factored form; zeros at -4, +1

The values of x that make this true are ones that make the factors have the same signs: x ≤ -4 or x ≥ 1.

Domain restrictions

The domain of f(x) is -8 < x < 4, so we require the arguments of f be restricted to those values

Left side

  -8 < 4x -3 < 4

  -5 < 4x < 7

  -5/4 < x < 7/4

Right side

  -8 < 2 -x² < 4 . . . . . right side is always true

  x² < 10 . . . . . . . . . . . add x² +8

  |x| < √10 . . . . . . . . . . less restrictive than the the left-side restriction

Solution

With the given domain restrictions on f(x), the inequality will be true on the interval ...

  1 ≤ x < 7/4

__

Additional comment

The attached graph shows the left-side function argument (dashed blue) and the right-side function argument (dashed green) with the given domain restrictions. The red curve is the difference in function values for the function defined as above. It is only non-negative between 1 and 1.75 as we found above.

This general behavior is applicable for any f(x) that can be described as in the problem statement. For example, f(x) = √(x+8) also gives an increasing curve for the difference f(4x-3)-f(2-x²) on the interval (-5/4, 7/4) with an x-intercept of +1.

3x = 31

x = 10.3

So Jack is 31

And Lacy is 10

To prove this, subract 9 (years) from both ages

It will give you an approximate sum of 22 years for both their ages, as the question states

Answers

Answer:

The farmer can predict that 55 cows in the entire population have no spots.

Step-by-step explanation:

The farmer can predict that 40 cows in the entire population have no spots, the correct option is C.

How to find the confidence interval for population proportion from large sample?

Suppose we're given that:

Favourable Cases X (in count, in sample)

Sample Size N

Level of significance =[tex]\alpha[/tex]

Then, the sample proportion of favorable cases is:

[tex]\hat{p} = \dfrac{X}{N}[/tex]

The critical value at the level of significance[tex]\alpha is Z_{1- \alpha/2}[/tex]

The corresponding confidence interval is:

[tex]CI = & \displaystyle \left( \hat p - z_c \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}, \hat p + z_c \sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}} \right)[/tex]

The given information;

The farmer took a random sample of 40 cows out of 200 total cows and found that 11 of those cows have no spots. We can use this sample data to make a prediction about the entire population using statistical inference.

Now,

Plugging in the values, we get:

CI = 0.275 ± 1.96sqrt((0.275(1-0.275))/40)

CI = 0.275 ± 0.139

CI = (0.136, 0.414)

This means that we can be 95% confident that the true proportion of cows with no spots in the entire population lies between 0.136 and 0.414.

the farmer can predict that between 13.6% and 41.4%

Therefore, by confidence interval the answer will be  farmer can predict that 40 cows in the entire population have no spots

[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac43 \div \dfrac13=-\dfrac43 \times \dfrac31[/tex]

To multiply a fraction, simply multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators:

[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac43 \times \dfrac31=\dfrac{-4 \times 3}{3 \times 1}=-\dfrac{12}{3}[/tex]

Finally simplify:

[tex]\sf \implies -\dfrac{12}{3}=-4[/tex]

It was thought that the plaques must have come from ancient Egypt, or perhaps that the people of Benin were one of the lost tribes of Israel.
