Write a function to represent the set of ordered pairs. {(2, -8), (3, -18), (4, -32), (5, -50)}

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -2x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of ordered pairs is:

(x₁, y₁) = (2, -8)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, -18)

(x₃, y₃) = (4, -32)

(x₄, y₄) = (5, -50)

First let's check if this is linear.  For even increments of x, Δy is:

Δy₂₁ = y₂ − y₁ = -18 − -8 = -10

Δy₃₂ = y₃ − y₂ = -32 − -18 = -14

Δy₄₃ = y₄ − y₃ = -50 − -32 = -18

Δy isn't constant, so this isn't linear.  However, the difference of the differences is constant:

Δy₃₂ − Δy₂₁ = -14 − -10 = -4

Δy₄₃ − Δy₃₂ = -18 − -14 = -4

So this is a quadratic.

y = ax² + bx + c

To find the coefficients of a, b, and c, we can either plug in three points from the set and solve the system of equations:

-8 = a(2)² + b(2) + c

-18 = a(3)² + b(3) + c

-32 = a(4)² + b(4) + c

Or, if it's simple, we can use a little trial and error.

-8 = -2 (2)²

-18 = -2 (3)²

-32 = -2 (4)²

So the function is:

y = -2x²

• Shift 5 units right.
• Shift 7 units down,

Answers

Answer:

The new function is g(x) = Ix - 5I - 7 ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the translation of a function

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

- If the function f(x) translated vertically up  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) + k

- If the function f(x) translated vertically down  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) – k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ f(x) = IxI

∵ f(x) is shifted 5 units to the right

∵ If the function f(x) shifted to the right  by h units

∴ g(x) = f(x - h)

- Change IxI to Ix - 5I ⇒ (1)

∵ f(x) is shifted 7 uints down

∵ If the function f(x) shifted down  by k units

∴ g(x) = f(x) - k

- Change f(x) to f(x) - 7 ⇒ (2)

- From (1) and (2) the new function is:

 g(x) = Ix - 5I - 7

* The new function is g(x) = Ix - 5I - 7

If the alternate hypothesis of an experiment is “The true mean height of the giraffes is more than 15 feet” what is the null hypothesis?

Answers

Answer: "The true mean height of the giraffes is less than or equal to 15 feet".

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis in a statement that is made about a statistical parameter of a population.

A null hypothesis [tex]H_0[/tex] is usually the hypothesis that is tried to reject by an alternate hypothesis [tex]H_a[/tex]

In this case  [tex]H_a[/tex] is:

"The true mean height of the giraffes is more than 15 feet".

Therefore, for this case, the null hypothesis must be:

 "The true mean height of the giraffes is less than or equal to 15 feet".

Consider the graph of the equation y = 5. Which statements are true? Check all that apply.
The graph of y = 5 is a vertical line.
The graph of y = 5 is a horizontal line.
The graph of y = 5 is neither a vertical line nor a horizontal line,
The point (5,3) lies on the line.
The point (-4, 5) lies on the line.

Answers

Answer:

y=5 is horizontal

(-4,5) is on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

y= a number is always a horizontal line

x= b number is always a vertical line

So y=5 is horizontal and it includes every single ordered pair with a y-coordinate of 5. So it contain the ordered pair (-4,5).

So there are two statements.

The correct statements are :

The graph of y = 5 is a vertical line.

The point (-4, 5) lies on the line.

What are equations?

An equation is a mathematical statement which equate two algebraic expressions. An equation has an equal to (=) sign in between the expression.

How to know which statements are true?The equation y = 5 is a line parallel to the y axis .So, the line is vertical.The line also passes through all the points with ordinate 5

So the line passes through ( -4,5)

So options A and D are correct.

Answers

Answer:

The game’s expected value of points earned for a turn is 71.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we know that:

Points     Frequency

50           55

75            32

150          13

Here points earned is a random variable.

We need to find its expected value,

Finding Expected value:

Expected value of a random variable is its mean value. So we will first find the mean value of points earned per turn from the table we are given.

Total number of turns = sum of frequencies

= 55 + 32 + 14 = 100

Total points earned = 50(55) + 75(32) + 150(13)

= 7100

Expected value of points earned for a turn = Mean value of points

= Total points/no. of turns

= 7100/100

= 71

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to get the line in the form of y = mx + b

2x - 4y = 10                  Subtract 3x from both sides

-4y = - 2x + 10              3x on the left disappears. Divide by - 4

-4y/-4 =-2x/-4 +10/-4    Do the division

y = (2/4)x - 2.5

y = (1/2)x - 2.5

The slope is the number in front of the x

y = 0.5x - 2.5

the equation of line is
y = mx + b, where m is the slope
2x - 4y = 10
-4y=-2x +10
y= -2x/-4 + 10/-4
y= 1/2 x -2.5

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let child one = x

Let child two = y

Let child three = z

Equations

x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 100

xy + xz + yz = 150

Solution

There's a trick here. The square of their weights added together is equal (with some modification) to the given conditions. Start by squaring (x+y+z).

(x + y + z)^2 = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2xy + 2xz + 2yz

Take out 2 as a common factor from the last three terms.

(x + y + z)^2 = (x^2 + y^2 + z^2+ 2(xy + xz + yz) )

Substitute the given conditions into the equation. (x^2 + y^2 + z^2) = 100 and 2*(xy + xz + yz) = 2 * 150

(x + y + z)^2 = 100 + 2*150

(x + y + z)^2 = 100 + 300

(x + y + z)^2 = 400

Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(x+y+z)^2 = sqrt(400)

x + y + z = 20

Note

This answer tells you nothing about the values of x y and z. On the other hand it does not ask for the values of x y and z.

Answers

Hope this helps! Please mark me as brainliest if you can. I really appreciate it!
Final answer:

The sum of the real numbers x and y is 25 and their difference is 13. To find the value of xy, we need to solve a system of equations. The value of xy is 114.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to set up a system of equations based on the given information. Let's denote x and y as the two real numbers. The sum of x and y is 25, so we can write the equation x + y = 25. The difference between x and y is 13, so the equation becomes x - y = 13. To find the value of xy, we need to solve this system of equations.

First, let's add the two equations together. (x + y) + (x - y) = 25 + 13. This simplifies to 2x = 38. Dividing both sides by 2, we find x = 19.

Now, we can substitute the value of x into one of the original equations (x + y = 25) to solve for y. 19 + y = 25. Subtracting 19 from both sides, we get y = 6.

Therefore, the value of xy is 19 * 6 = 114.

Since the first sailors left their home shores and set off for adventure, stories have been told of the strange and wondrous beasts encountered on the open ocean. With only glimpses and imagination-enhanced stories to go on, humans have made many an interesting creature into a monster. The truth is, the ocean's scariest creatures inhabit such extreme depths that humans are rarely, if ever, threatened by them. That does not mean they are not the stuff of nightmares. Consider, if you will, the following frightful fiends. Atlantic Hagfish Part eel, part sea snake, this sea serpent may have inspired many stories. Lacking the scales that most fish have, the hagfish secretes the most amazing slime to protect itself. This slime may be used to suffocate predators. The slime includes small fibers that make it almost impossible to remove. But the hagfish's truly horrific nature lies in what it does to its prey, not its predators. With an excellent sense of smell that compensates for almost total blindness, the hagfish will locate and latch on to a victim. With a circle of razor sharp teeth, the hagfish bores a hole into the side of its now-doomed prey. Once the hole is complete, the hagfish just welcomes itself inside for a meal of fish innards. It essentially eats its prey from the inside out. Like other deep-sea monsters, however, hagfish are seldom a nuisance to humans. They live most of their lives at depths of up to 5,600 feet. In fact, they prefer a soft sea bottom so they can quickly bury themselves to hide from threats. Gulper Eel Another, more hideous, fiend of the deep is the gulper eel. This creepy critter is part eel and part giant pouch. Like a pelican's enormous pouch-shaped mouth, the mouth of the gulper eel can open quite wide to gulp prey. It has a long tail tipped with a glowing organ that is used to lure in prey. Thanks in part to its tail, the gulper can reach up to six feet in length. Because its tail is so thin, it is not able to pursue prey with any speed, but it can scoop up hundreds of small crustaceans or shrimp in one bite. Often swimming through these prey groups with its mouth wide open, its large jaws allow it to feed on squid and other creatures much larger than itself. Gulper eels have only been studied because they sometimes get caught in the nets of fishermen. The depths they inhabit make it quite difficult for scientists to study them. They can go as deep as 6,000 feet, well beyond the abilities of humans to pursue them. Vampire Squid Perhaps the most frightening of the deep-sea monsters is also the smallest. The vampire squid reaches lengths of only six inches. It is also one of the most ancient of the deep-sea monsters. Scientists believe it to be the last surviving member of its order. To see the vampire squid is to wonder how many kinds of sea creatures have been mashed into this one odd-looking spook. Part squid, part octopus, and part fish, the vampire squid has features of all of these. First, it has large fins at the top of its head that look like ears. Flapping like Dumbo, the squid uses these fins to get around. It also has tentacles and a large bulbous head like an octopus. Its arms, however, are connected by webbing that allows it to form a cloak around itself when frightened. Like the octopus, it can change its colors, even making its cloak so dark that it appears invisible. Remarkably, it has the largest eyes compared to its body size of any creature on earth. Despite its mere six-inch length, its eyes are as big as those of a large dog. With its glowing orbs of eyes and its disappearing tricks, it's no wonder it's named after one of the most feared creatures of legends and folklore: the vampire. These creatures make one wonder not just about the odd members of the deep-sea community, but also what mysterious things inhabit the regions never visited by humans. What may be lurking in the deepest, darkest corners of the deep blue seas? One thing we know for certain, much like the outrageous monsters we conjure in our worst nightmares, the deep ocean is an equally imaginative source of shock, awe, and outright fright.
