Answer:

V shape.

Vertex at (4,0)

Intersect with y axis at (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you just ahve to search fo the graph that grows like a V because when you deal with functions that have absolute values you can have negative and positive values for the independent variable but not for the dependent, in this case x is the independent so x will have negative and positive values while Y will only grow in the postives, now the vertex of the function is found where Y=0 so to calculate that you equal the function to 0

y=|x-4|

0=|x-4|

x=4

So the vertex will be at (4,0) and the intersect with the y axis will be located where x=0, so you evaluate the function for 0:

y=|x-4|

y=|o-4|

y=|-4|

y=4

So the intersect with the y axis will be at (0,4).

You have not shared the graphs from which you have to choose your answer.

Why not graph y=|x-4| yourself, to help you choose the correct answer?

First, graph y=|x|. It looks like a "v" opening up, with the vertex at (0,0).
Next, move the whole "v" graph 4 units to the right.

Compare your result to the given answer choices.

A golfer keeps track of his score for playing nine holes of golf (half a normal golf round). His mean score is 8080 with a sta

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and $11\sqrt2$ respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

For the first 9 holes X:

E(X) = 80

SD(X)=13

For the second 9 holes Y:

E(Y) = 80

SD(Y)=13

For the sum W=X+Y, the following properties holds for means , variance and standard deviation :

E(W)=E(X)+E(Y)

and

V(W)=V(X)+V(Y)

⇒SD²(W)=SD²(X)+SD²(Y) [ Variance = (standard deviation)²]

$\Rightarrow SD(W)=\sqrt{SD^2(X)+SD^2(Y)}$

∴E(W)=E(X)+E(Y) = 80 +80=160

and

∴ $SD(W)=\sqrt{SD^2(X)+SD^2(Y)}$

$=\sqrt{11^2+11^2}$

$=\sqrt{2.11^2}$

$=11\sqrt2$

Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and $11\sqrt2$ respectively.

Vincent is watching a movie that last one hour and 37 minutes.he has watched 52 minutes so far. how many minutes are left in the

nataly862011 [7]

So 1 hour = 60 minutes, you do 60 + 37 and you get 97, Vincent has watched 52 minutes of the movie, so you subtract 97 by 52 and you get 45, hope this helped. It will appreciated if you give me a star so I can help even more people that are having trouble :)

A geometry class has a total of 27 students. The number of females is 13 less than the number of males. How many males and how m

boyakko [2]

Answer:

20 males and 7 females

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the number of females is x and the number of males is y.

We know that the total number of students is 27, which can also be written as x + y. So, these two expressions are equal: x + y = 27.

There are 13 fewer females than males, so: x = y - 13.

Now, we can use substitution to solve this system of linear equations.

Since x = y - 13, we can plug in y - 13 for x in x + y = 27:

x + y = 27 ⇒ (y - 13) + y = 27 ⇒ 2y - 13 = 27 ⇒ 2y = 40 ⇒ y = 20

Then, we use this value of y to solve for x:

x = y - 13 = 20 - 13 = 7

Thus, there are 20 males and 7 females.

Hope this helps!
