a) 16 + h 16
h
b) √4 + h - √16
h
c) √4 + h - 16
h

d) √16 + h - 4
h

Answers

Answer 1

Difference quotient for f(x) = √x at (16,4) is  √16+h - 4 / h

Difference quotient is mathematical operation used to solve derivation of function by using following formula :

difference quotient = [tex]\frac{f(x+ h) - f(x) }{h}[/tex]

For the function f(x) =  √x at point (16,4)

f(x +h) = [tex]\sqrt{x+h}[/tex]  

putting value in formula

difference quotient =  [tex]\frac{\sqrt{x+h} -\sqrt{x} }{h}[/tex]

now , putting x = 16 ,

difference quotient = √16+h - √16 / h

taking square root of 16 ,

= √16+h - 4 / h

So, the required Difference quotient for the function at (16,4) is √16+h - 4 / h

option (d) is correct

The cost to replace a water pump in a sports car was $899. This included $365 for the water pump and $89 per hour for labor. How many hours of labor were required to replace the water pump?

Answers

By solving a linear equation we will see that there were 6 hours of labor.

How many hours of labor were required?

We know that the total cost is composed by a fixed amount of $365 plus $89 per hour of labor, so if there are x hours of labor, the total cost will be:

c(x) =  $365 + x*$89

We know that the total cost is $899, then we can write the linear equation:

$899 = $365 + x*$89

$899 - $365 = x*$89

($899 - $365)/$89 = x = 6

So there were 6 hours of labor.

What are similar triangles?

If two triangles' corresponding angles and sides are identical and their corresponding sides are proportional, or if the ratios between the lengths of the corresponding sides are comparable, then two triangles are said to be similar.

Similar triangles are triangles with the same shape but different sizes. Examples of related objects are all equilateral triangles and squares with any side length.

The triangles ONP and LNM are similar triangles.

So, the following is true.

(ON/LN)=(NP)/(NM)

(3.6/6)=(6)/(NM)  ( LN=LO+ON=2.4+3.6=6 )

3.6 NM=6*6 =36

NM=36/3.6 = 10

A neighborhood planner uses a coordinate plane to design a new neighborhood. The coordinates A(1,−1)​ , B(1,−2)​ , and C(2,−1)​ represent House A, House B, and House C. The planner decides to place a playground centered at the origin, and moves the houses to make space. House A is now located at A′(3,−4)​ . What are the new coordinates of House B and House C when each house is moved using the same translation?

Answers

The new coordinates of House B and House C are
B' ( 3 , -5 ) and C' ( 4 , -4 ) respectively

What is Translation?

A translation moves a shape up, down, or from side to side, but it has no effect on its appearance. A transformation is an example of translation. A transformation is a method of changing a shape's size or position. Every point in the shape is translated in the same direction by the same amount.

Given data ,

Let the 3 houses be A , B ,C

The coordinate of House A = A ( 1 , -1 )

​The coordinate of House B = B ( 1 , -2 )

The coordinate of House C = C ( 2 , -1 )

Now , the houses are relocated to new coordinates with

The new coordinate of House A = A' ( 3 , -4 )

The translation of Point A can be expressed in the form of x and y coordinate as there is a translation occurred with a scale factor

So ,

A ( x₁ , y₁ ) to A' ( x₂ , y₂ )

A ( 1 , -1 ) to  A' ( 3 , -4 )

x₂ = x₁ + 2

y₂ = y₁ - 3

From the figure , we can clearly see that the coordinates of the houses A , B and C are translated by a scale factor and the new coordinates are

x₂ = x₁ + 2

y₂ = y₁ - 3

Therefore ,

B ( x₁ , y₁ ) to B' ( x₂ , y₂ )

B' ( x₂ , y₂ ) = B' ( 3 , -5 )

C ( x₁ , y₁ ) to C' ( x₂ , y₂ )

C' ( x₂ , y₂ ) = C' ( 4 , -4 )

Hence , the new coordinates of House B and House C are B' ( 3 , -5 ) and C' ( 4 , -4 ) respectively

Consider the following linear equation.

y=2+34x
Step 1 of 2 : Determine the slope and the y-intercept (entered as an ordered pair) of the equation above. Reduce all fractions to lowest terms.

Answers

The slope of the function y = 2 + 34x is 34 and the y-intercept of the function y = 2 + 34x is 2.

First, let us understand the slope intercept form;

The slope intercept form is simply a way of writing a line's equation so that the slope (steepness) and y-intercept (where the line crosses the vertical y-axis) are obvious.

We know that the slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line.

We are given:

y = 2 + 34x

y = 34x + 2

Compare with y = mx + c, we will get;

m = 34

b = 2

So, the slope is 34 and the y-intercept is 2.

Thus, the slope of the function y = 2 + 34x is 34 and the y-intercept of the function y = 2 + 34x is 2.

A) What is the probability that a randomly selected person spent more than ​$​25?
B) What is the probability that a randomly selected person spent between ​$12 and ​$​21?
C) Between what two​ values, symmetrically distributed around the​ mean, will the middle ​95% of the amounts of cash spent​ fall?

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) The probability that a randomly selected person spent more than ​$​25 is of 0.3446 = 34.46%.

b) The probability that a randomly selected person spent between ​$12 and ​$​21 is of 0.3307 = 33.07%.

c) The middle 95% of the amounts are between $13.2 and $32.8.

How to obtain probabilities using the normal distribution?

The z-score of a measure X of a variable that has mean symbolized by [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation symbolized by [tex]\sigma[/tex] is obtained by the rule presented as follows:

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

The z-score represents how many standard deviations the measure X is above or below the mean of the distribution, depending if the obtained z-score is positive or negative.Using the z-score table, the p-value associated with the calculated z-score is found, and it represents the percentile of the measure X in the distribution.

The mean and the standard deviation for the costs of the meal are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 23, \sigma = 5[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected person spent more than ​$​25 is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25, hence:

Z = (25 - 23)/5

Z = 0.4

Z = 0.4 has a p-value of 0.6554.

1 - 0.6554 = 0.3446 = 34.46%.

The probability that a randomly selected person spent between ​$12 and ​$​21 is the p-value of Z when X = 21 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 12, hence:

X = 21:

Z = (21 - 23)/5

Z = -0.4

Z = -0.4 has a p-value of 0.3446.

X = 12:

Z = (12 - 23)/5

Z = -2.2

Z = -2.2 has a p-value of 0.0139.

0.3446 - 0.0139 = 0.3307 = 33.07%.

The normal distribution is symmetric, meaning that the bounds of the middle 95% of values are given as follows:

2.5th percentile: X when Z = -1.96.97.5th percentile: X when Z = 1.96.

-1.96 = (X - 23)/5

X - 23 = -1.96 x 5

X = $13.2

1.96 = (X - 23)/5

X - 23 = 1.96 x 5

A competitive water skier's heights y, x seconds after soaring off a ramp.

For x = 0, y = 22

a +b = 12 - 22 = -10 equation (1)

Putting x = 0.25, y = 22.5,

22.5 = a* [tex]22.5^{2}[/tex] +b*22.5 +22

506.25 a +22.5b = 0.5 equation(2)

Solving equation (1) and equation(2), we get :

a = -16 and b = 6 and c = 22

So, the quadratic equation becomes,

[tex]y = -16x^{2} + 6x +22[/tex]

Now, Time when the skier is 5 feet above the water,

[tex]x = \frac{3 +\sqrt{281} }{16} = 1.23 seconds[/tex]

Hence, the function modelled for the given condition is [tex]y = -16x^{2} + 6x +22[/tex] and the time after which the skier is 5 feet above the water is 1.23 seconds.

A nursing administrator went through a sample of hospital records and found that, out of 500 randomly selected records, 217 of the patients had been admitted for heart issues. What is the sample statistic?

Answers

The sample statistic when the nursing administrator went through a sample of hospital records is 217.

What is statistic?

A statistic is a metric used to describe a sample. Estimation or hypothesis testing can be used to determine how likely it is that a sample statistic differs from the population parameter.

A sample is an analytic subset of a larger population in statistics. The use of samples enables researchers to conduct studies with more manageable data and more quickly. Randomly drawn samples have little bias if they are large enough, but obtaining such a sample can be costly and time-consuming.

A sample statistic is a piece of statistical data derived from a small number of items. A sample is merely a subset of a population. Therefore, the 217 of the patients had been admitted for heart issues is the sample.
