Which ordered pair below is not a solution to f(x) = x² - 3x + 4?
(1) (0,4)
(2) (1.5,1.75)
(3) (5,14)
(4) (-1,6)

Answers

Answer:

(4) (-1,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² - 3x + 4

1) (0,4) ==>x=0 and f(x)=4

4 = 0² - 3(0) + 4

4 = 0 + 4

4 = 4 ==> true X

2) (1.5,1.75)==> x=1.5 and f(x)=1.75

1.75 = (1.5)² - 3(1.5) + 4

1.75 = 2.25 - 4.5 + 4

1.75 = 2.25 - 0.5

1.75 = 1.75 ==> true  X

3) (5,14)

14 = (5)² - 3(5) + 4

14 = 25 - 15 + 4

14 = 10 + 4

14 = 14  ==> true X

4) (-1,6)

6 = (-1)² - 3(-1) + 4

6 = (|-1|)² - (-3) + 4  ==> the square of a negative number is equal to the square

                              of the absolute value of that number since the square of

                             a real number is always positive

6 = (1)²+ 3 + 4  ==> subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding

                          the positive number

6 = 1 + 3 + 4

6 = 4 + 4

6 = 8  ==> false √√

Hence, the answer is (4) (-1,6).

Knowing that the earth’s radius is 3,963 miles, answer the following questions. Round all answers to the nearest whole number.

1. Is there a right angle in the triangle shown by connecting the center of the earth, the satellite, and Station 1? How do you know? *Assume that the line connecting the satellite and Station 1 is tangent to the earth.

Answers

The number of miles that a signal sent from Station 1 to the satellite and then to Station 2 will have to travel is; 48135 miles

How to find the distance of separation?

Let us first find the distance from Station 1 to the satellite:

Using trigonometric ratio, we have;

tan 8.7 = length of longest leg/length of shortest leg

Thus;

tan 8.7 =  3963/length of longest leg

Length of longest leg = 3963/tan8.7°

Length of longest leg = 3963/0.15302150298

Length of longest leg = 25,898 miles

Distance from Station 2 to satellite:

Using trigonometric ratio again, we have;

sin 8.7 = length of longest leg/ length of hypotenuse

sin  8.7 =  3963/length of hypotenuse

Length of hypotenuse =3963/ sin 8.7

Length of hypotenuse =3963/0.1526082024

Length of hypotenuse = 26, 200 miles

Thus, the difference is;

26200 - 3,963 = 22237 miles

Total distance will calculated as;

The variable y takes the value -7 when we have x = -3.

For which value of x we have y = -7?

Here we have the linear equation:

y = x - 4

We want to find the value of x such that y = -7, to get that, we only need to replace the variable y by the number -7 in the linear equation above:

-7 = x - 4

Given the data: 2, 4, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 16

The minimum value of the data is 2. Thus, Min = 2

The maximum value of the data is 16. Thus, Max = 16

The median is the data value in the middle.

2, 4, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 16

So the median (Q2) of the data is (12+12)/2 = 12. Thus, Med = 12

Consider the values to the left of the median with one of the median numbers included (since we have numbers in the middle):

2, 4, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12

Find the median of this set of numbers. The median is 5.  Q1 = 5

Answers

x     f(x)

You need to draw y = 2 f (x-1)
So you need to choose x so that  x-1 = 0, -2, 4 then you can use the above values.
New function
x-1 = 0,              x = 1,           y = 2 f (x-1) = 2 f(0) = 2 x 0 = 0
x-1 = -2              x = -1           y = 2 f (x-1) = 2 f(-2) = 2 x -4 = -8
x-1 = 4               x = 5            y = 2 f (x-1) = 2 f (4) = 2 x -2 = -4
So 3 points on the new graph are   (1, 0)   (-1, -8) and (5, -4)
Basically going from y = f(x) to y = f(x-a) where a is a constant positive number you translate (move)  y = f(x)  a units to the right.
y = f(x) to y = 2 f(x),  you dilate f(x) with center (0,0) factor 2,  so  (a,b) > (2a, 2b)
So basically here you are doing both things.
So if (a,b) is on y = f(x) then after the translation (a,b) > (a+1, b) then after the dilation (a+1,b) > (2a+2, 2b).

?

Answers

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is, [tex]y = \frac{4}{5}x - 8[/tex].

What is perpendicular lines?

When two geometric objects intersect at a right angle, they are considered to be perpendicular in elementary geometry. By using the perpendicular symbol,, the condition of perpendicularity can be graphically represented. Between two lines, a line and a plane, or between two planes can be used to define it.

Consider the given equation of line

5x + 4y = 10

Convert it into the form y = mx + c

⇒ 4y = -5x + 10

y = -5/4x + 10/4

y = -5/4x + 5/2

Here the slope of line is, -5/4.

The slope of perpendicular line is negative reciprocal of the slope of given line.

So, the slope of perpendicular line is,

[tex]-\frac{1}{(-5/4)} = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Also the line passes through the point (5, -4).

By using the point slope form to find the equation of line

[tex]y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-(-4) = \frac{4}{5}(x-5)\\ y+4=\frac{4}{5}x - 4\\ y = \frac{4}{5}x - 4 - 4\\ y = \frac{4}{5}x - 8[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is, [tex]y = \frac{4}{5}x - 8[/tex].

A car takes 5 hours to cover a distance if it is moving with a speed of 40 mph. Find the time taken by the car if it is moving with a speed of 50 mph.

Answers

The time required = 4 hours

The time required by the car to move at a speed of 50 mph to reach a distance of 200 miles is 4 hours

What is Speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude

Speed = Distance / Time

Given data ,

Let the distance traveled by the car be = D

Now , the speed S of the car = 40 miles per hour

The time required by the car to travel D distance is T = 5 hours

So , the Distance D is calculated from the formula

Distance D = Speed S x Time T

So , substituting the values in the equation , we get

Distance D = 40 x 5

Distance D = 200 miles

Now , the distance traveled by the car remains the constant

The speed of the car is S = 50 miles per hour

And let the time taken by the car to cover 200 miles at 50 mph be = T

Now to calculate Time T ,

Time T = Distance D / Speed S

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Time T = 200 / 50

Time T = 4 hours

Therefore , the value of T is 4 hours

Hence , The time required by the car to move at a speed of 50 mph to reach a distance of 200 miles is 4 hours

Given that, the cost unit bottle of soda is $3.

The cost of unit bag popcorn is $4.

Assume that she bought s number of soda bottle and p number of bags of popcorn.

Then the cost of s number of soda bottle is $3s.

The cost of p number of bags of popcorn $4p.

She spent $26 in total.

Therefore

3s + 4p = 26.....(i)

She bought 7 things from the shop.

Therefore,

s + p =7 .....(ii)

Solve equation (i) and (ii) by using elimination method:

Multiply equation (ii) by 3 and subtract it from (i)

3s + 4p = 26.

3s + 3p =21

(-)   (-)      (-)

_________

        p = 5

Putting p = 5 in equation (ii)

s + 5 = 7

s = 2

The range of the graph shown is

range { y | y < 0 }

What is translation?

When a figure is transported from one place to another without changing its size, shape, or orientation, a translation takes place.

How to find the  range

All of a function's x-values, or inputs, make up the domain, and all of a function's y-values, or outputs, make up the range.

The graph's entire range, from lower to upper numbers vertically, represents the range.

The translation downwards, means that the graph moved down and considering the image of the attached graph, the effect of the translation means that the range to be numbers less than zero

the heights of a random sample of 50 college students showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of 6.9 centimeters. (a) construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students. (b) what can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centimeters?

Answers

a) With 98% confidence interval, the mean height of all college students is between 173.743 centimeters and 175.257 centimeters.

b) The possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centimeters is 0.976.

a) We want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.

Number of sample, n = 450

Mean, u = 174.5 centimeters

Standard deviation, s = 6.9 centimeters

For a confidence level of 98%, the corresponding z value is 2.33. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval = mean ± z × standard deviation/√n

It becomes

174.5 ± 2.33 × 6.9/√450

= 174.5 ± 2.33 × 0.325

= 174.5 ± 0.757

The lower end of the confidence interval is 174.5 - 0.757 =173.743

The upper end of the confidence interval is 174.5 + 0.757 =175.257

Therefore, with 98% confidence interval, the mean height of all college students is between 173.743 centimeters and 175.257 centimeters.

(b) The possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centimeters:

Thus, Error would be:

σ /√n

= 6.9/√50

= 0.976

Directions: Determine the domain, range, and tell if the graph is a function or not​

Answers

Answer:

Domain:  (-∞, 1) ∪ (1, ∞)

Range:  (-∞, -2) ∪ (2, ∞)

Yes, it's a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information

An open circle indicates the value is not included in the interval.A closed circle indicates the value is included in the interval.An arrow shows that the function continues indefinitely in that direction.

Domain

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values).

From inspection of the given graph:

There is an open circle at (1, 2) and (1, -2).The arrows show that the x-values continue indefinitely towards -∞ and ∞.

Therefore, the domain is all values of x except x = 1:

Interval notation:  (-∞, 1) ∪ (1, ∞)

Range

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (y-values).

From inspection of the given graph:

There is an open circle at (1, 2) and (1, -2) so the range does not include any values of y between (and including) -2 and 2.The arrows show that the y-values continue indefinitely towards -∞ and ∞.

Therefore, the range is all values of y except between -2 and 2:

Interval notation:  (-∞, -2) ∪ (2, ∞)

Functions

A function is a special type of relationship where each input (x-value) is related to exactly one output (y-value).

From inspection of the graph, as the two points where x = 1 are not included, each value in the range (y-values) corresponds to exactly one value in the domain, and so it is a one-to-one function.
