Jonathan and Tim want to predict how many quarters are in a large jar containing 120 coins. Jonathan randomly selects a sample o

f 10 coins from the jar, while Tim randomly selects a sample of 30 coins. Then they count the number of quarters in each sample. Whose sample should more accurately predict the number of quarters in the jar? sample should give a more accurate prediction of the number of quarters in the jar.

the larger the sample the more accurate the prediction

so since Tim looked at a larger quantity of coins his would be more accurate

Tim would give a sample that should more accurately predict the numbers in the jar. He has taken out 1/4 of the coins from the jar.

Determine the domain of the function (fog) (x) where f(x) = 3x-1/x-4 and g(x)=x+1/x

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are $f(x)=\frac{3x-1}{x-4}$ and $g(x)=\frac{x+1}{x}$ .

We now composed the two functions to find:

$(f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=f(\frac{x+1}{x})$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{3(\frac{x+1}{x})+1}{\frac{x+1}{x}-4}$

$\implies (f\circ g)(x)=\frac{4x+3}{1-3x}$

This function is defined if the denominator is not zero.

$1-3x\ne0$

$x\ne\frac{1}{3}$

We write this in interval notation as:

$(-\infty,\frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

We need to be cautious here as x=0 is not in the domain of g(x).

Therefore the domain of $(f\circ g)(x)$ is

$(-\infty,0)\cup(0, \frac{1}{3})\cup (\frac{1}{3},\infty)$

Maria had planned to walk 10 1/8 miles on wednesday, if she walked 7 2/8 miles in the morning how far would she need to walk in

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Distance Maria had to walk in the afternoon is $2\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets take that Maria walked $x$ miles in the afternoon.

Distance walked in the morning + distance walked in the afternoon = $10\frac{1}{8}$

⇒ $7\frac{2}{8} +x=10\frac{1}{8}$

$\frac{58}{8} +\frac{8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$\frac{58+8x}{8} =\frac{81}{8}$

$58+8x=81$

$8x=81-58\\$

$8x=23$

$x=\frac{23}{8}$

$x=2\frac{7}{8}$
