Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of an absolute value function contains the points (–3, 5), (0, 2) and (3, 5). Which could be the function represented by this graph? Check all that apply.

f(x) = |x| + 2
f(x) = –|x| + 2
f(x) = |x| – 2
f(x) = |–x + 2|
f(x) = |–x| + 2
f(x) = –|x| – 2
f(x) = |x + 2|

Answers

The absolute value functions that contains the points are:

f(x) = |x| + 2f(x) = |-x| + 2

Which could be the function represented by this graph?

Here we have the points (-3, 5), (0, 2), and (3, 5). We want to see which ones of the given functions have that points.

To check that, we need to evaluate the functions in the first value of each point and see if the outcome is the second value of the correspondent point.

For example, for the first equation:

f(-3) = |-3| + 2 = 5   so it has the point (-3, 5)f(0) = |0| + 2 = 2  so it has the point (0, 2)f(3) = |3| + 2 = 5  so it has the point (3, 5).

The other option that also contains these 3 points is:

f(x) = |-x| + 2

f(-3) = |3| + 2 = 5  so it has the point (-3, 5)f(0) = |-0| + 2 = 2  so it has the point (0, 2)f(3) =  |-3| + 2 = 5  so it has the point (3, 5).

And all the other options can be trivially discarded (by evaluating them).

So the two correct options are:

f(x) = |x| + 2f(x) = |-x| + 2

The ratio of surface area to volume for the cube is 2.

The volume of the sphere is 113.14 in³

The surface area of the sphere is 113.14 in²

The ratio of surface area to volume is 1.

What is the surface area and volume of each solid?

The volume of a cube = side length³

3³ = 27 in³

The surface area of a cube = 6a²

a = side length

6 x (3²) = 54 inches²

Ratio of surface area to volume = 54 / 27 = 2

4/3 x 22/7 x 3³ = 113.14 in³

The surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

A beverage company produces cans of lemonade. According to the label a can contains a volume of 375mL of lemonade. A consumer group tested this claim by measuring the volume of lemonade in 2,500 cans. They found that the volume was normally distributed with a standard deviation of 5mL and a mean of 372mL.

If a can is chosen at random, find:

P (its volume is ≥382mL)

Answers

The probability that the volume of a can chosen at random is ≥382 is 0.47725

Normal distribution probability

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur. For the given question, we need to calculate the  z value as shown;

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Given the following parameters

[tex]x=382mL\\\mu (mean)=372mL\\\sigma(S.D)=5mL[/tex]

Substitute

[tex]z=\dfrac{382-372}{5} \\z=\dfrac{10}{5}\\ z=2[/tex]

In order to calculate the probability that the volume of a can chosen at random is ≥382, we will look for (z≥2)

z≥2 according to probability table is equivalent to 0.47725

As the sample size increases, the margin of error _____.

Answers

As the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases.

What is margin of error?

A margin of error is known to be a statistical measurement that states the difference between apparent and projected results in a random sample survey.

From the formula:

MOE = z × √σ²/n

Where

σ = standard deviation

z = quantile

n = sample size

MOE = margin of error

From the formula, sample size is inversely proportional to the margin of error.

Hence, as the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases.

the perimeter of a rectangle is 20 cm and it's area is 24cm^2 find the length and breath of the rectangle​

Answers

Answer:

length = 6cm , breadth = 4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume length = l

breadth = b

Given perimeter of a rectangle = 20 cm

2(l+b) = 20

l+b = 20/2

l+b = 10

l = 10 - b____(1)

Given area of rectangle = 24 cm²

l×b = 24____(2)

(1) in (2) => l × b = 24

(10-b) × b = 24

10b - b² = 24

10b = 24 + b²

0 = b² - 10b + 24

b² - 10b + 24 = 0

b² + 6b + 4b + 24 = 0

b(b+6) +4(b+6) = 0

(b+4)(b+6) = 0

b+4 = 0. &. b+6 = 0

b = -4. b = -6

breadth must be less than length and it should be positive

So b = 4 cm

b=4 in (1)

(1)=> l = 10 - b

l = 10 - 4

l = 6
