Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the graph of the function F(x), when x goes from 0 to 1, F(x) is a negative number with large absolute value. Option D is correct.

A function that wraps an algebraic expression in absolute value symbols is known as an absolute value function. Remember that a number's distance from 0 on the number line represents its absolute value.

When the value of x goes from 0 to 1 the function shifts and the value is decreased gradually, thus giving F(x) as negative number with a large absolute value.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

Answer:

  -0.155

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the slope of Bob's descent when he descends 3200 feet in a horizontal distance of 3.9 miles.

To find the slope of Bob Dean's descent, we can use the formula:

  slope = (change in elevation) / (change in horizontal distance)

In this case, the change in elevation is 3200 feet and the change in horizontal distance is 3.9 miles.

  slope = -3200 feet / (3.9 miles)

To convert the horizontal distance to feet, we multiply by 5280 (the number of feet in a mile)

  slope = -3200 feet / (3.9 * 5280 feet)

  slope = -3200 / 20,592

  slope ≈ -0.1554

The slope of Bob Dean's descent is about -0.155.

Answer:

the building is approximately 28.3 feet tall, accurate to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the building can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. In this case, the building is the hypotenuse, and the base of the ladder and the top of the ladder form the other two sides.

The height of the building can be found using the following formula:

h = √(32^2 - 15^2)

h = √(1024 - 225)

h = √(799)

h ≈ 28.3 ft

The trigonometric ratios as fractions in simplest terms are sin X= 8/17 and cos W= 8/17.

The sides and angles of a right-angled triangle are dealt with in Trigonometry. The ratios of acute angles are called trigonometric ratios of angles. The six trigonometric ratios are sine (sin), cosine (cos), tangent (tan), cotangent (cot), cosecant (cosec), and secant (sec).

In the given triangle WVX, WV=24, WX=51 and VX=45

We know that, sinθ = Perpendicular/Hypotenuse and cosθ = Base/Hypotenuse

Here, sin X= 24/51

sin X= 8/17

cos W= 24/51

cos W= 8/17

Therefore, the trigonometric ratios as fractions in simplest terms are sin X= 8/17 and cos W= 8/17.

Answer:

y = -x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Given that the point (-8,5) lies on the line and the slope of the line is m=-1, we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation to write the equation of the line.

The point-slope form of a linear equation is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line, and m is the slope of the line.

So substituting the given point (-8,5) and slope m=-1 into the point-slope form, we get:

y - 5 = -1(x + 8)

Simplifying, we get:

y = -x - 3

This equation is the slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point (-8,5) and has a slope of -1.

The required system of equation has no solution.

The more physical interpretation of the idea of two linear equations having a linear equation is that it will always have a singular solution regardless of whether the lines are parallel or coinciding.

We have,

4x + 10y = 57---------------(1)

To answer this, you get to pick any x-value and then solve for y OR you can pick any y-value and solve for x.

For this one, let's pick x = 3.  We'll then substitute 3 in for x in the equation:

       - (3) + 2y = 7

and then solve for x:

       -3 + 2y = 7

Add 3 to both sides:
              2y = 10

Divide by 2 on both sides:
                y = 5

This shows that (3,5) is a solution for the equation.

Again, you could pick any x-value and solve for y OR pick any y-value and solve for x.  There are an infinite number of solutions.

By solving a linear equation we will see that the polygon has 19 sides.

Remember that for a polygon of n sides, the sum of the interior angles is equal to:

(n - 2)*180°

Here we also know that 3 angles are:

136°, 138°, and 146°

And the rest of the angles (n - 3) angles are of 165° each.

Then the sum of the interior angles gives:

136° + 138° + 146° + (n - 3)*165°

And that must be equal to the expression above, so we can write the linear equation:

136° + 138° + 146° + (n - 3)*165°  = (n - 2)*180°

420° + n*165° - 495° = n*180° - 360°

n*165° - 75° = n*180° - 360°

360° - 75° = n*180 - n*165

285° = n*15°

285°/15° = n

19 = n

If the brain volumes (cm³) of 20 brains have a mean of 1085.2 cm³ and a standard deviation of 125.6 cm³. For such data: it is significantly low for a brain because 1386.4 cm³ is less than the upper limit.

Mean = 1085.2 cm³

Standard deviation = 125.6 cm³

Hence,

Lower limit = Mean - 2 x Standard deviation

Lower limit  =1085.2 - 2 x 125.6

Lower limit =1161.2 - 251.2

Lower limit  =910

Upper Limit = Mean + 2 x Standard deviation

Upper Limit = 1161.2 +  2 x 125.6

Upper Limit =1161.2 +251.2

Upper Limit =1412.4

The limit of values is from 910 to 1412.4.

A value below 910 will be is considered low and a value above 1412.4  will be considered high

You want to use the graph to evaluate the compositions ...

where f(x) = x² -2x -3, and g(x) = x -2.

To find the value of a graphed function, locate the function argument on the x-axis and find the point of intersection of that vertical line with the graph. The y-coordinate of that point is the function value.

Here, we're asked to read the graph to find f(1), use that value to find g(f(1)), then use that value to find f(g(f(1))). This last value is f(-6), which is off the top of the graph. We need to use the equation to find the value:

  f(x) = (x -2)x -3

  f(-6) = (-6 -2)(-6) -3 = 48 -3 = 45

The value of f(g(f(1))) is 45. The equation must be used for this.

Reading the graph for g(0), we find the value to be -2. Then f(-2) is 5, and g(5) is 3.

The value of g(f(g(0))) is 3.

Therefore , to calculate the  average AVC, use the formula: TC at 0 output is 5, which equals fixed cost (FC) of 5.

The fixed cost per unit of output is known as the AFC, and the variable cost per unit of output is known as the AVC. We previously stated that Bob's Bakery can produce 100 loaves with FC = 40, VC = 500, and TC = 540. ATC = TC/Q = 540/100 = 5.4 as a result. Additionally, AVC = 500/100 = 5 and AFC = 40/100 = 0.4.

Here,

Total cost is equal to total fixed cost plus total variable cost, or TC.

In order to obtain the VC at each output, we must first subtract 5 from the TCs for all subsequent output levels.

AVC is now equal to VC divided by Q.

Using Squeeze theorem, the limit of the function is 0

The Squeeze Theorem states that if f(x,y) <= g(x,y) <= h(x,y) for all x,y in a region around (x0,y0) and lim (x,y)->(x0,y0) g(x,y) = L, then lim (x,y)->(x0,y0) f(x,y) = lim (x,y)->(x0,y0) h(x,y) = L.

We can use the Squeeze Theorem to find the limit of the given function by finding two other functions that bound it and have known limits as (x,y) approaches (0,0).

We can see that

(x^2+y^2)/(x^2+y^2) <= 3x^2y/(x^2+y^2) <= (3xy)/(x^2+y^2)

As x,y approaches 0, the first inequality approaches 1 and the second one approaches 0, so the limit of the given function is also 0.

Therefore, lim [(x,y) -> (0,0)] (3 . x^2 . y / (x^2 + y^2)) = 0.

The answer choice you chose is correct.

The number of tickets that Sam can buy, given the amount he has to spend and the price of admission, is 36 tickets.

The rate of change is $ 0.75 per attraction.

The table on the number of tickets and total cost is:

Number of tickets                 1                        5                 10               15

Total cost                          $ 10. 75             $ 13.75       $17.50        $ 21. 25

The number of tickets that Sam can buy when he has $ 37 is:

= (Amount to spend - Cost of admission ) / Cost per ticket

= ( 37 - 10 ) / 0.75

= 36 tickets

The rate of change is therefore the $ 0.75 charged per ticket per event.

The number of tickets for $ 10. 75 is:

= ( Total cost - Cost of admission ) / cost per ticket

= ( 10. 75 - 10 ) / 0.75

= 1 ticket

The cost of 5 tickets :
