Given the following piecewise function, evaluate f(-1).f(x) =3x +4. X < -1-8x +8 x> -1

Answers

Answer 1

We have the expression:

[tex]3x+4\text{ if x}\leq-1[/tex]

So, when x=-1 we need to use this expression, so lets plot -1 on it:

[tex]3(-1)+4=-3+4=1[/tex]

so f(-1)=1.

The confidence level is [0.1883, 0.3866] and the  95% confidence interval for the cost is [0.25x 564.9, 0.25x1160.1] = [141.23, 290]

n = 80

a) p = 23/80 = 0.2875

% = 95

Standard error SE = √(p(1 - p)/n = √(0.2875(1 - 0.2875)/80)

z - score = 1.9599

Width of the confidence level = z x SE = 1.95996 x 0.05060 = 0.0991

Lower level of the confidence level = p - width = 0.2875 - 0.099177 = 0.1883

upper level of the confidence level = p + width = 0.2875 + 0.099177 = 0.3866778

The confidence level is [0.1883, 0.3866]

b) The 95% confidence level for the number of such customers = [0.1883 x 3000, 0.3866 x 3000] = [564.9, 1160.1]

The 95% confidence interval for the cost = [0.25x 564.9, 0.25x1160.1] = [141.23, 290]

Fifteen percent of your earnings go to taxes, and the rest goes toward the expenses for this vacation. Over next five months, what is the fewest number of extra hours per month you could work and still me enough money to take this vacation? A 35 ( C. 47 E.235 8.40 D. 200 AIS rregues stepl. In this ques we are given that guastotares family to go for at Vacation this summes need atat sum 15 Then, you need to hours at your sub this vacation

Answers

Assuming that all 5 months have 30 working days.

Let us assume that you need to do 'x' hours per month to get the extra money for vacation.

Given that overtime wage is $11.25 per hour, the wage (in $) for monthly overtime is obtained as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Monthly Overtime Wage}=\text{ Monthly overtime hours}\times\text{ Wage per hour} \\ \text{Monthly Overtime Wage}=x\times11.25 \\ \text{Monthly Overtime Wage}=11.25x \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then the total amount (TA) earned in 5 months of overtime work is calculated as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ Total Amount}=\text{ Amount per month}\times\text{ No. of months} \\ \text{Total Amount}=11.25x\times5 \\ \text{Total Amount}=56.25x \end{gathered}[/tex]

Given that the 15% of this amount earned goes for the tax, so the net amount earned is given by,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Net Amount Earned}=(1-\frac{15}{100})\times56.25x \\ \text{Net Amount Earned}=(\frac{85}{100})\times56.25x \\ \text{Net Amount Earned}=47.8125x \end{gathered}[/tex]

This net amount must be sufficient to cover the total cost of vacation $2245,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ Net Amount Earned}=\text{ Expense on vacation} \\ 47.8125x=2245 \\ x=\frac{2245}{47.8125} \\ x=46.95 \\ x\approx47 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, you have to work 47 hours of overtime monthly to cover the cost of the vacation in 5 months.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I need help on the following question (it’s one problem but with multiple parts):

Answers

Part i. We are told that the cost for 3 throws is 1 dollar. This means that if "x" is the number of throws then the total cost must be:

[tex]C(x)=\frac{1\text{ dollar}}{3\text{ throws}}x[/tex]

We can rewrite it in a simpler form as:

[tex]C(x)=\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]

If we purchased the armband then this cost is equivalent to (1/6) of a dollar per throw plus the cost of the armband, we get:

[tex]C_2(x)=\frac{1}{6}x+10[/tex]

Part ii. The graph of the two equations are two lines in the plane, like this:

In the graph, the red line represents the cost without the armband and the blue line represents the cost with the armband.

Part iii. We can see from the graph that if the number of throws is smaller than 60, then the cost is smaller without the armband, but if the cost is greater than 60 then the cost is smaller with the armband. Therefore, it makes sense to buy the armband if the number of throws is going to be greater than 60.

According to the given sequence, the difference is -4, because it's decreasing with that difference: 2-2 = -2; -2-4 = -6; and so on.

To find the explicit formula, we use the arithmetic sequence formula.

Replacing all the given information, we have.

[tex]\begin{gathered} a_n=2+(n-1)\cdot(-4) \\ a_n=2-4n+4 \\ a_n=6-4n \end{gathered}[/tex]

This explicit formula we can also express as

next substitute in your values p = 52 and l = 18

The height and weight of adults can be related by the equation y = 48.3x 127 where a is height in feet and y is weight in poundsWhat does the slope of the line represent?A. the number of pounds heavier an adult one foot taller would weighB. the height of an adult weighing zero poundsOC. the average number of pounds per foot tallD. the number of adults in the sampleReset SelectionviousNext

Answers

The slope of the line y = 48.3x - 127  represents the number of pounds heavier an adult one foot taller would weigh .

The given line is y = 48.3x - 127

So we can use this equation to find the weight of various people of different heights.

At x = 6 , y = 48.3 × 6 - 127 = 162.8 pounds

At x = 7 , y = 48.3 × 7 - 127 =  211.1 pounds

Difference of the two weights = 211.1 - 162.8 = 48.3

The slope of something like a line in the plane consisting of the x and y axes is typically denoted by the letter m. This slope is calculated by dividing the linear change in the y coordinate between two separate points on the line by the equivalent change in the x coordinate.

Hence the slope which is 48.3 represents the difference in height of people who are a feet taller.

What are the coordinates of the y- intercept of this function y 6 -5 1 2

Answers

The coordinates of the y-intercept of the function can be obtained if we follow the steps below

Step 1: we can get the equation of the graph using the equation below

[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2\text{ -}x_1}\text{ = }\frac{y\text{ -}y_1}{x\text{ -}x_1}[/tex]

Step 2: Select two coordinates that will be substituted into the equation

Selecting the points

(-2, -6) and (-1, -5)

[tex]\frac{-5\text{ -(-6)}}{-1\text{ -(-2)}}\text{ =}\frac{y-(-6)}{x\text{ -(-2)}}[/tex][tex]\frac{1}{1}=\frac{y+6}{x+2}[/tex]

Cross multiplying

y + 6 = x + 2

y = x + 2 - 6

y = x -4

The equation of the line is y = x - 4

The next step is to obtain the y-intercept which is obtained by substituting x = 0 into the equation of the line.

If x = 0

then y = 0 - 4

Hence y = -4

Therefore the coordinates of the y-intercept are (0, -4)
