Answer 1

Answer:

135.05 ; 2.762 ; (133.201, 136.899) ; (132.840, 137.260)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Urban area Price/liter

St. John, NL 137.1

Halifax 133.6

Montreal 136.2

Regina 132.3

Saskatoon 132.2

Yellowknife 138.9

Mean = (137.1 + 133.6 + 136.2 + 132.3 + 132.2 + 138.9) / 6

= 810.3 / 6

= 135.05

Standard deviation (σ) : √Σ(X - mean)²/n-1

(137.1 - 135.05)^2 + (133.6 - 135.05)^2 + (136.2 - 135.05)^2 + (132.3 - 135.05)^2 + (132.2 - 135.05)^2+ (138.9 - 135.05)^2 = 38.135

√(38.135 / (6 - 1))

= √7.627

= 2.7617023

= 2.762

C.)

90% confidence interval of the mean :

Mean ± Zcrit * σ/√n

Zcrit at 90% = 1.64

135.05 ± 1.64 * (2.762/√6)

135.05 ± 1.64 * 1.1275817

Lower Value = (135.05 - (1.64 * 1.1275817)) = 133.201

Upper Value = (135.05 + (1.64 * 1.1275817))) = 136.899

Confidence interval = (133.201, 136.899)

D.)

95% confidence interval of the mean :

Mean ± Zcrit * σ/√n

Zcrit at 95% = 1.96

135.05 ± 1.96 * (2.762/6)

135.05 ± 1.96 * 1.1275817

Lower Value = (135.05 - (1.96 * 1.1275817)) = 132.840

Upper Value = (135.05 + (1.96 * 1.1275817)) = 137.260

Confidence interval = (132.840, 137.260)

The table on the left is that of a linear function, and the one on the right is that of an exponential function.
Can you tell which function has the higher rate of growth? How?
A)
There is not enough information to make a conclusion.
B)
The linear function is growing faster, because at x = 3 the y-value of the
linear function is larger.
C)
The exponential function is growing faster, because at x = 0 the y-value of
the exponential function is larger.
D)
The exponential function is growing faster, because it grows by a factor
that is multiplied by the previous y-value instead of being added like the
linear function.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option D) The exponential function is growing faster, because it grows by a factor that is multiplied by the previous y-value instead of being added like the linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily that by evaluating both functions at x = 10

Linear

f(x) = 7*10 = 70

Exponential

f(x) = 2^(10) = 1024

(b) Solve for c and justify your solution by checking your answer.

Answers

Multiple the number of toys bought by c to equal the total spent:

A) 7c = $22.75

B) divide the total spent by the quantity bought:

C = 22.75/7

C = 3.25

Each toy cost $3.75

Triangle ABC is reflected across the y-axis to form the triangle A'B'C', then dilated

B)
There's not enough information to identify whether AABC and AA"B"C" are
congruent or similar.
C) AABC and AA"B"C"are congruent triangles.
D AABC and AA"B"C" are neither similar nor congruent.

Answers

Given:

Triangle ABC is reflected across the y-axis to form the triangle A'B'C'.

Then dilated  with a factor of 1/3 to form triangle A"B"C".

To find:

The correct statement for triangles ABC and A"B"C".

Solution:

We know that reflection is a rigid transformation, it means size and shape of the figure remains same after reflection.

So, figures are always congruent to their images after reflection.

[tex]\Delta ABC\cong Delta A'B'C'[/tex]       ...(i)

Dilation is not a rigid transformation. Here, shape remains same nut the size is different.

So, figures are always similar to their images after dilation.

[tex]\Delta A'B'C'\sim \Delta A"B"C"[/tex]        ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]\Delta ABC\sim \Delta A"B"C"[/tex]

ΔABC and ΔAB"C" are similar triangles.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

What is the value of y in the solution to this system of equations?
y =
7x+14
2.
2x + 4y = 60

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{224}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 7x + 14[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4y = 60[/tex]

Required

Find y

First, substitute 7x + 14 for y in the second equation:

[tex]2x + 4y = 60[/tex] becomes

[tex]2x + 4(7x + 14) =60[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]2x + 28x + 56 = 60[/tex]

[tex]30x = 60 - 56[/tex]

[tex]30x = 4[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = \frac{4}{30}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{2}{15}[/tex]

[tex]y = 7x + 14[/tex] becomes

[tex]y = 7 * \frac{2}{15} + 14[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{14}{15} + 14[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{210+14}{15}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{224}{15}[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]y = \frac{224}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Need to complete square on the left side of equation

The square should be in the form of:

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

We see a = x therefore

2b = -3/4, so b = -3/8 and b² = (-3/8)² = 9/64

So the missing constant term is 9/64

Write an equation of the line in slope intercept form (0,5)(3,4)

Answers

Find slope (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(4-5)/(3-0) = -1/3
Y = -1/3x + b
5 = -1/3(0) + b, b = 5
Equation: y = -1/3x + 5

The slope intercep equation of the following points  (0,5) (3,4) will be y = (-1/3)x + 5.

What is the slope-intercept equation?

A slope-intercept equation is the equation of the two variables x and y in which the form of the equation should be in such a way that it should contain the slope of the given equation.

For example, in the equation, y = mx + c here m will be the slope of the equation and this is the slope-intercept equation.

Another example is y = 3x + 7 here 3 will be the slope of that equation.

Slope m = difference in y coordinate/ difference in x coordinate.

Let's suppose our equation is y =mx + c

now m = (4 - 5)/(3 - 0)

m = -1/3 now for c put both point in the equation we get as 5.

So y = (-1/3)x + 5 will be correct slope intercept form.
