What is true of the function g(x) = –2x2 + 5? g(x) is the multiplication of g and x. –2x2 +5 is the input of the function. The variable x represents the independent variable. The variable g represents the input of the function.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Here, we want to select what is true of the function.

The correct answer is that the variable x represents the independent variable

It represents the independent variable because the values of x does not depend on the values of g(x). In fact, the value of g(x) are dependent on the values gotten through the substitution of the different values of x into the equation.

Thus, we can confidently say that the function g(x) is the dependent variable as its values depend on the value for that x

Answer 2

Question:

What is true of the function g(x) = –2x2 + 5?

Answers

Answer:

6/15 * 2/14 = 12/210

Step-by-step explanation:

This is compound probability. To calculate compound probability, you need to multiply the probabilities of each event happening together.

In this example, the events are selecting a pineapple cake, then a strawberry cake.

Let's find the probabilities!

There are 2 strawberry cakes, 6 pineapple cakes, and 7 chocolate cakes. This means that he has 15 cakes in total.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a pineapple cake is 6/15.

Now, if we assume that he has selected a pineapple cake already, there are now 14 cakes.

Next, the probability of selecting a strawberry cake is now 2/14. This is because he already took a pineapple cake, and now he has to pick a strawberry cake out of the remaining 14 cakes.

Multiply these two probabilities to find the compound probability: 12/210 ( this could be further simplified, but that's how they give it to you! )

plz help me how would you solve 4x + 2y = 18, 3x - 5y =20 by elemination

Answers

Answer: x = 5, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1: 4x + 2y = 18

Equation 2: 3x - 5y = 20

In order to eliminate one of the variables , find the LCM of either x or y.

I chose to eliminate y.  The LCM of 2 & 5 is 10.

Multiply the entire equation so the coefficient of the variable equals the LCM.

Then add the equations and solve for the remaining variable.

5(4x + 2y = 18)       -->        20x + 10y = 90

2(3x - 5y = 20)      -->           6x  - 10y = 40

                                           26x          = 130  

                                          ÷26            ÷26

                                                x         =  5

Next, input x = 5 into either of the equations to solve for y.

Equation 1: 4x + 2y = 18

                 4(5) + 2y = 18

                  20  + 2y = 18

                -20            -20

                           2y = -2

What are the foci of the hyperbola represented by the equation (x^2)/64 - (y^2)/32 =1

Answers

Answer:

x = √2y^2 + 64 or x = √2y^2 + 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x.

x^2/64 - y^2/32 = 1

Step 1: Add 1/32 y^2 to both sides.

1/64 x^2 + -1/32 y^2 + 1/32 y^2 = 1 + 1/32 y^2

Step 2: Divide both sides by 1/64.

1/64 x^2/ 1/64 = 1/32 y^2 + 1/ 1/64

x^2 = 2y^2 + 64

Step 3:

x = √2y^2 + 64 or x = √2y^2 + 64

Answer:

x = √2y^2 + 64

Step-by-step explanation:

= 1/64 x^2 + -1/32 y^2 + 1/32 y^2 = 1 + 1/32 y^2

= 1/64 x^2/ 1/64 = 1/32 y^2 + 1/ 1/64

= x^2 = 2y^2 + 64

= x = √2y^2 + 64

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

It cannot be C. The Y-intercept of Function W is 30, while the Y-intercept of Function Z is 15.8. Now, we are left with A, B, and D.

It cannot be D, because 30 is not less than 15.8. Now, we are left with options A and B.

Function Z as an equation is approximately y=-1/24x+15.8.

The slopes are NOT equal, so the answer cannot be A.

Explanation why it's B:

1/16 is bigger than 1/24, however, since the fractions are NEGATIVE, -1/16 is actually LESS THAN -1/24. The slopes of Function W is less than the slope of Function Z.

Answer:

B. the slope of function W is less than he slope of function Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Function W:

y= - 1/16x+30

Function Z:

from the table we can see it is decreasing function with step change of -0.04

using the data from the table we can put the function in y= mx + b format:

x=0 ⇒ y= 15.8      ----- interceptx=1 ⇒ y= 15.7615.76- 15.8 = - 0.04= - 4/100 = -1/25     ----- slope

as per above, we get the the form of function Z

y= -1/25x+15.8

we can now compare the slops and intercepts of functions W and Z

m - is the slope: -1/16 and - 1/25

-1/25>-1/16 ⇒ the slope of function W is less than Z

b is the y-intercept: 30 and 15.8

30>15.8 ⇒ the y-intercept of function Z is less

As per above the correct option is

B. the slope of function W is less than he slope of function Z

You bought a magazine for $3 and two notepads. You spent a total of $13. How much did each notepad cost? *

Answers

Answer:

$5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the cost of a notepad considering a magazine costs $3 and we buy 2 notepads and the total cost of the magazine and the 2 notepads is $13 so we can set up an equation to represent this situation. Let 'n' be notepads and that's the value we are solving for so,

⇒ Form the equation

→ 2n + 3 = 13

⇒ Minus 3 from both sides to isolate 2n

→ 2n = 10

⇒ Divide both sides by 2 to find the cost of one notepad

→ n = 5

The cost of one notepad is $5 considering that a magazine cost's $3 and two notepads and total is $13.

URGENT: At what annual rate of simple interest must $12,000 be invested to earn $135 in interest each quarter? (I will give brainliest)

Answers

Answer:

4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we should understand that a quarter is every three months.

So if $135 is earned each quarter, then 4 * 135 = $540 is earned per annnum

We use the simple interest formula to get the rate.

Mathematically;

I = PRT/100

where P is the amount deposited = 12,000

R is what we are looking for which is the rate

T is the time which is 1 year

I is the interest which is 540

We can rewrite the simple interest formula to be:

100I = PRT

R = 100I/PT

Thus substituting the values we have;

R = (100 * 540)/(12,000 * 1) = 4.5%

Answer:

4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the simple interest formula to tackle this question.

[tex]SI = \frac{PRT}{100}[/tex]

P = principal = $12,000

R = rate (in %) = ?

T = Time(in years) = 1/4 years

135 = [tex]\frac{12000*R}{100*4}[/tex]

[tex]135 = \frac{12000R}{400}\\ 54000 = 12000R\\R = \frac{54000}{12000}\\ R = 4.5\ %[/tex]

The annual rate of simple interest is 4.5%

Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation. This gives you 10x = 4x - 18.Subtract 4x from both sides of the equation. This gives you 6x = -18.Divide both sides by 6. This gives you x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide a pizza, or anything else, equally among a certain number of people, we need to divide the total of pizza available by the number of people who will eat the pizza. In this case there are 8 slices and 'p' people, therefore:

[tex]y(p) = \frac{8}{p}[/tex]

Will mark brainliest !!!!!!!!!!!! Read this excerpt from Thomas Paine's essay "Common Sense":Mankind being originally equals in the order of creation, the equality could only be destroyed by some subsequent circumstance; thedistinctions of rich, and poor, may in a great measure be accounted for, and that without having recourse to the harsh, ill-sounding namesof oppression and avarice. Oppression is often the CONSEQUENCE, but seldom or never the MEANS of riches; and though avarice willpreserve a man from being necessitously poor, It generally makes him too timorous to be wealthy.But there is another and greater distinction, for which no truly natural or religious reason can be assigned, and that is, the distinction ofmen into KINGS and SUBJECTS. Male and female are the distinctions of nature, good and bad the distinctions of heaven; but how a race ofmen came into the world so exalted above the rest, and distinguished like some new species, is worth inquiring Into, and whether they arethe means of happiness or of misery to mankind.What is Thomas Paine's central claim in this excerpt?OA.OB.There will always be a distinction between kings and their subjects.The equality that humans enjoyed during creation has been ruined because of war and famine.Not all people who belonged to the upper sections of society were cruel.The differences between the kings and the subjects were not religious or natural.C.D.Reset Next
