The direct variation function is y = 0.3x

The direct variation from y to x is represented as:

y = kx

When y = 1.5 and x = 5, we have

1.5 = 5k

Divide by 5

k = 0.3

Substitute k = 0.3 in y = kx

y = 0.3x

If the height of ball is shown by h(t)=52t-16[tex]t^{2}[/tex] then the ball will reach after 1.625 seconds.

Given that height in t seconds is shown by h(t)=52t-16[tex]t^{2}[/tex].

We are required to find the time after which the ball will attain its maximum height.

The maximum height is the y coordinate of vertex of the parabola. Then we can use the following value of t.

h(t)=52t-16[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

Differentiate with respect to t.

dh/dt=52-32t

Again differentiate with respect to t.

[tex]d^{2}h/dt^{2}[/tex]=-32t

Because tim cannot be negative means the height is maximum.

Put dh/dt=0

52-32t=0

-32t=-52

t=52/32

t=1.625

Hence if the height of ball is shown by h(t)=52t-16[tex]t^{2}[/tex] then the ball will reach after 1.625 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

this just means that the first function with input value x = 0 is calculated. that result becomes the input value x for the second function. and that result becomes the input value x for the 3rd function. and that result is then our result.

to answer a and b we only need to look at the main operation of each function :

the first one uses only basic multiplication and subtraction.

the second one uses squaring.

the third one is a 1/x operation.

a.

since the final result is a negative number (-31), the second function with the square operation cannot be last.

because a square operation always delivers a positive result.

+a × +a = +a²

-a × -a = +a²

remember, for a square operation we multiply the same number by itself. therefore we cannot mix signs like -a × +a, because then they would not be the same numbers anymore.

b.

since the initial input value is 0, the third function (1/x) cannot be the first, because 1/0 is not defined.

c.

because of the "large" -32 term in the first function I guess that this will be the last one to create such a low negative result of -31.

since 1/x cannot be first, (x - 2)² is then first. that makes 1/x second, and (4x - 32) third, as mentioned.

let's try :

x = 0

(x - 2)² = (0 - 2)² = (-2)² = 4

x = 4

1/x = 1/4

x = 1/4

4x - 32 = 4×1/4 - 32 = 1 - 32 = -31

Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.2076 = 20.76% probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%.

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

The proportion estimate and the sample size are given as follows:

p = 0.45, n = 437.

Hence the mean and the standard error are:

The probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will differ from the population proportion by greater than 3% is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z when X = 0.45 - 0.03 = 0.42.

Hence:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem:

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

Z = (0.42 - 0.45)/0.0238

Z = -1.26

Z = -1.26 has a p-value of 0.1038.

2 x 0.1038 = 0.2076.

The horizontal asymptote of the function f ( x ) = 2ˣ is y = 0 and the y-intercept is ( 0 , 4 )

An asymptote is a line that a curve approaches but never touches. A line where the graph of a function converges is known as an asymptote. When graphing functions, asymptotes are typically not required

There are 3 types of asymptotes

Horizontal asymptote (HA) - It is a horizontal line and hence its equation is of the form y = k. Horizontal Asymptote is when the function f(x) is tending to zero

Vertical asymptote (VA) - It is a vertical line and hence its equation is of the form x = k. Vertical asymptotes are defined when the denominator of a rational function tends to zero

Slanting asymptote (Oblique asymptote) - It is a slanting line and hence its equation is of the form y = mx + b

Given data ,

Let the function be denoted as f ( x )

Now , the value of f ( x ) is

f ( x ) = 2ˣ   be equation (1)

The y-intercept of the function is when x = 0

So , when x = 0

f ( 0 ) = 2⁰

f ( 0 ) = 1

So , the y-intercept of the function is at ( 0 , 4 )

And , when the function f ( x ) is tending to zero , the horizontal asymptote is y = 0

Therefore , the horizontal asymptote is y = 0

The domain of the exponential function is { -∞ < x < ∞ }

Hence , the horizontal asymptote of the function f ( x ) = 2ˣ is y = 0

See attachment for the graph of the cosine function f(x) = 5 cos(π/2x) - 1

From the question, the given parameters are:

Amplitude, A = 5

Vertical shift, D = -1

Period, T = 4

A cosine function is represented as:

f(x) = A cos(B(x + C)) + D

Where

Amplitude = A

Period = T

Horizontal shift = C

Vertical shift = D

Since the horizontal shift is not stated in the question, we can assume that the horizontal shift is 0

i.e. C = 0

So, the equation of the cosine function becomes

f(x) = A cos(Bx) + D

Calculate the value of B using

B = 2π/T

So, we have:

B = 2π/4

Evaluate

B = π/2

So, we have:

f(x) = A cos(π/2x) + D

Substitute the known values of A and D in the above equation

f(x) = 5 cos(π/2x) - 1

Next, we plot the graph of the cosine function on a graphing tool

Answer:

1/6 p - 4/5 or -4/5 + 1/6p They both mean the same thing.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have two sets of like terms.  You have 2 terms that have the variable p as part of the term and you have 2 terms with no variable that are called constants.

-2/3p + 5/6p  Are two terms that you want to combine.  We need common denominators to add.  The common denominator would be 6, so we will make an equivalent fraction with -2/3 with 6 as the denominator.

-2/3 = -4/6  We just multiple the top (numerator) and the bottom (denominator of the first fraction (-2/3) by 2 to the get the second faction (-4/6).  Now we can add the 2 terms with p together.

-4/6p + 5/6p  The denominators stays the same (6) and we add the numerators -4 + 5 = 1,  So our p term is 1/6p

Now we have to combine the constant terms of 1/5 and - 1.  Another name for -1 is 5/5.  We are going to use this form so that our denominators are the same.

1/5 - 5/5 = -4/5

Solving a system of equations, we can see that:

Let's define the variables:

With the given information, we can write:

P*8h = D

C*7h = D

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

So we have a system of 3 equations, where D is the distance in the problem.

With the first and second equations we can write:

P*8h = D = C*7h

Isolating P, we get:

P = C*(7/8)

Now we can replace that in the last equation:

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

C = 2*C*(7/8) - 144mi/h

And now we can solve that for C.

C - 2*(7/8)*C = - 144mi/h

C*(1 - 14/8) = -144mi/h

C*(8/8 - 14/8) = - 144mi/h

C*(6/8) = 144mi/h

C = (8/6)*144mi/h = 192mi/h

Now that we know the speed of the commercial jet, we can find the speed of the private jet.

P = C*(7/8) = 192mi/h*(7/8) = 168 mi/h

From the given information,

The total cost to rent 5 chairs and 3 tables is $27

That is,

5c + 3t = 27 ------------ (1)

Also,

The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 12 tables is $81

That is,

2c + 12t = 81 ---------- (2)

Now, solve the equations simultaneously

5c + 3t = 27 ------------ (1)

2c + 12t = 81 ---------- (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 and multiply equation (2) by 5

2 × [5c + 3t = 27 ]

5 × [2c + 12t = 81 ]

10c + 6t = 54        ------------- (3)

10c + 60t = 405   ------------- (4)

Subtract equation (4) from equation (3)

10c + 6t = 54        

10c + 60t = 405

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

-54t = -351

t = -351/-54

t = 6.5

Substitute the value of t into equation (2)
2c + 12t = 81

2c + 12(6.5) = 81

2c + 78 = 81

2c = 81 - 78

2c = 3

c = 3/2

Hence, the possible values of X for this game are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.......n, where n ≥ 1

The probability of x is represented as:

P(x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

So, the probability that X = n is:

P(n) = nCn * p^n * (1 - p)^(n - n)

Evaluate the exponent

P(n) = nCn * p^n * 1

Evaluate the combination expression

P(n) = 1 * p^n * 1
