===========================================================
Explanation:
The given function is
[tex]f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}[/tex]
which is the same as writing f(x) = ( sqrt(2x-6) )/(x-3)
The key for now is the square root term. Specifically, the stuff underneath. This stuff is called the radicand.
Recall that the radicand cannot be negative, or else the square root stuff will result in a complex number. Eg: [tex]\sqrt{-4} = 0+2i[/tex]
The question is basically asking: what is the smallest x such that [tex]\sqrt{2x-6}[/tex] is a real number?
Well if we made 2x-6 as small as possible, ie set it equal to 0, then we can find the answer
[tex]2x-6 = 0\\\\2x = 6\\\\x = 6/2\\\\x = 3\\\\[/tex]
I set the radicand equal to 0 because that's as small as the radicand can get (otherwise, we're dipping into negative territory).
So 2x-6 set equal to 0 leads to x = 3.
This means x = 3 produces the smallest radicand (zero) and therefore, it is the smallest allowed x value for that square root term.
But wait, if we tried x = 3 in f(x), then we get...
[tex]f(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2x-6}}{x-3}\\\\f(3) = \frac{\sqrt{2*3-6}}{3-3}\\\\f(3) = \frac{\sqrt{0}}{0}\\\\[/tex]
which isn't good. We cannot have 0 in the denominator. Dividing by zero is not allowed. The result is undefined. It doesn't even lead to a complex number. So we'll need to bump x = 3 up to x = 4. You should find that x = 4 doesn't make the denominator 0.
----------------
In short, we found that x = 3 makes the square root as small as possible while staying a real number, but it causes a division by zero error with f(x) overall. So we bump up to x = 4 instead.
Referring to the scale, 1:50 what is the actual measurement of the wall marked 18 cm on the plan?
Answer:
900 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
1 : 50
We need the first number to be 18 so multiply by 18

Which of the following describes a positive correlation?
As the number of hours spent on homework increases, the tests scores increase.
As the number of apples eaten per year increases, the number of times visiting the doctor every year remains the same.
As the number of times going to bed early increases, the number of times waking up late decreases.
The amount of time a team spent practicing increases, the number of games lost in a season decreases.
THIS IS A MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
Answer:
First Choice: As the number of hours spent on homework increases, the tests scores increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
The definition of a positive correlation is a relationship between two given variables, in which both variables are moving in the same direction. This can mean when one variable increases and the other variable increases, too, or one variable decreases and the other decreases as well.
The first choice is a positive correlation because both variables are changing (increasing) in the same direction. As you spend more time on homework, you're likely to get a higher test score.
The second choice cannot be a positive correlation because only one variable is having some kind of change (increasing). The doctor visits amount remains the same, so we can call this a zero-correlation relationship because the number of apples eaten yearly doesn't affect the amount of doctor visits. An apple a day keeps the doctor a way is just a proverb, not to be taken literally.
The third choice cannot be a positive correlation because the two variables are going different directions. Even though the number of times going to bed early is increasing, the number of times waking up late decreases, which is not moving in the same direction as the other variable.
The fourth choice cannot be a positive correlation because, similarly to the third choice, the two variables are going different directions. One variable is increasing, which is the amount of practice time. Meanwhile, the other variable is decreasing (going in the opposite direction), which is the number of games lost in a season.
If you wanted to make a game where you pay $5 if you can't guess a random dogs weight within 16lbs what payout should you offer you make the game zero-expected value
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Step-by-step explanation:
The population std. dev of the dog weight=8
[tex]\sigma=8\\\\P(\text{guess with in 16 lbs}) = P(|X-\mu|\leq 16)\\\\=P(-2 \leq Z \leq 2) = 0.9544\\\\[/tex]
Calculating the payout w s.t:
[tex]E[netpay]=0=(-5) \times 0.9544+w\times (1-0.9544)\\\\ w =(5 \times \frac{0.9544}{1-0.9544}) =\$ 104.65[/tex]
therefore, we assume that the weight of the dog is a normal distribution with std. deviation that is 8.
Evaluate 3|x|+2x-1 when x = -5.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
To start off, we are going to input our x value into our expression.
3|-5| + 2(-5) - 1
Next, we are going to find the absolute value (always positive) of -5 and multiply 2 and -5.
3(5) - 10 -1
Now, we will multiply 3 and 5.
15 - 10 -1
Finally, we are going to combine our like terms (15, -10, and -1)
4
So! Our final answer for this expression is 4!
Hope this Helps! :)

What is the equation
Answer:
D.) y = 2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the slope.
Lets use the points (0, 2) and (-2, -2).
Using the formula for calculating slope, we get 2 as our slope.
Since the equation should be in slope-intercept form, we use this formula.
y = mx + b
We'll use our first point (0, 2) to substitute for x and y and use 2 to substitute for m (slope):
2 = 2(0) + b
2 x 0 = 0
2 = 0 + b
-0 = -0
= 2 = b
Now, substitute b for 2 for 2 for m.
= y = 2x + 2.
Hope this helps!

B. 11.000
C.11.172
D.11.983
9514 1404 393
Answer:
B. 11.000
Step-by-step explanation:
The function looks like a reflected and translated exponential function with a horizontal asymptote near y = 11.000. The rate of change is decreasing so fast that the next value is expected to be very near 10.994. The closest one among the answer choices is 11.000.
_____
First differences are 0.811 and 0.011. The latter is about 0.0136 times the former. At that rate of change, we expect the next first difference to be about 0.000149, which would make the next number in sequence be about 10.9941—very little change from 10.994.
Clearly, first differences are not constant, so the function is not linear. Ratios of the numbers are not constant, so this is not an exponential (geometric) sequence. A reflected exponential function of the type described is a good fit.
With only 3 points given, the rule is not at all obvious. The next term could legitimately be anything you like, and a rule could be made that would fit it.

y = 95°, find the measure of x
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 100°
y = 95°
Step-by-step explanation:
It is probably easier to find y first. Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...
y = 180° -85° = 95°
The measure of an arc is double the measure of the inscribed angle subtending it. The arc subtended by angle y is ...
90° +x = 2y
x = 190° -90° = 100°
_____
Additional comment
The rule cited above regarding opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral comes from the theorem regarding inscribed angles. In the given diagram, the diagonal from the bottom vertex to the top one is a chord that divides the circle into two arcs. Their sum is 360°. The inscribed angle theorem tells you ...
2y +2(85°) = 360°
y + 85° = 180° . . . . . . . divide by 2; opposite angles are supplementary

Step-by-step explanation:
p = 0.67 ; q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.67
Sample size, n = 36
x = 23
Test for normality :

For a normal distribution :
np ≥ 5 and n(1 - p) ≥ 5
The hypothesis :
H0 : p = 0.67
H1 : p < 0.67
The Test statistic :
Z = (phat - p) / √[(p(1 -p))/n]
Phat = x / n = 23 / 36
Z = ((24/36) - 0.67)) / √[(0.67(1 -0.67))/36]
Z = - 0.031 / 0.0783687
Z = - 0.396983
Z = - 0.397

you really need help for typing numbers into your calculator ? because there is nothing else to do here.
we get 3 values of x and need to calculate the functional values based on the given expressions by using each given value for x.
the only thing that requires a bare minimum of intelligence is to find the fitting expression.
so, for g(1) and g(2) we need to use the middle one, and for g(3) the third one. uhhhh, very difficult ...
typing it in here is way more effort than doing it directly on the calculator or really in the head.
so, g(1) = (1-1)² - 2 = -2
g(2) = (2-1)² - 2 = 1 - 2 = -1
g(3) = 1/2 ×3 - 2 = 3/2 - 2 = 3/2 - 4/2 = -1/2
uhhhh, come in, you could have done that too. and way faster.

What is the range of the function f(x) = 3x + 2 overthe interval -6 < x < 5?
Answer:
(-16, 17)
Step-by-step explanation:
The range of the function will be (-16, 17)
The range of function f(x) = 3x + 2 overthe interval -6 < x < 5 is (-13,14)
What is Range?The difference between the highest and lowest values.
The given function is f(x) = 3x + 2
f(x) equal tp three times of x plus two.
The given interval is minus six less than x less than five.
-6 < x < 5
Which means the x values are -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2,3,4
Plus in the function
f(-5)=-15+2=-13
f(-4)=-10
f(-3)=-9+2=-7
f(-2)=-6+2=-4
f(-1)=-3+2=-1
f(0)=0+2=2
f(1)=3+2=5
f(2)=6+2=8
f(3)=9+2=11
f(4)=12+2=14
Hence the range of function f(x) = 3x + 2 overthe interval -6 < x < 5 is (-13,14)

A campus deli serves 101 customers over its busy lunch period from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. A quick count of the number of customers waiting in line and being served by the sandwich makers shows that an average of 18 customers are in process at any point in time. What is the average amount of time (in minute) that a customer spends in process?
Answer:
21.38 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
the total number served = 101
teh number of hours that is spent in serving from 11.30 to 1.30 = 2 hours
Lq = average number of those that are in line = 18 customers
from here we are to find the flow rate
= [tex]\frac{total served}{service hour}[/tex]
= 101/2 = 50.5
the average time in waiting =
Lq/flow rate
= 18/50.5
= 0.3564 hours
convert to minutes = 0.3564 * 60 minutes
= 21.38 minutes

Answer:
x = 5/3 x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
|3x-1| = 4
There are two solutions, one positive and one negative
3x-1 =4 and 3x-1 = -4
Add 1 to each side
3x-1+1 = 4+1 3x-1+1 = -4+1
3x = 5 3x = -3
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 5/3 3x/3 = -3/3
x = 5/3 x = -1
