Answer:
Use the appropriate entry method for piecewise functions for the graphing calculator of interest.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Desmos, the entry looks like ...
f(x) = {x ≤ 2: -2x-1,-x+4}
_____
For a TI-84 calculator, the entry may look like ...
Y₁ = (-2X–1)(X≤2) + (-X+4)(X>2)
The symbols ≤ and > come from the TEST menu, which is the (2nd) shift of the MATH key.
Note that the function is the sum of the pieces, each piece multiplied by a test. For something like 0≤x<2, the multiplier would be a pair of tests:
... (0≤X)(X<2)
Answer: -9 = a(1 - 3)² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex Form Equation:
y = a(x - h)² + k
vertex: (h, k) which means
h = 3
k = 3
because your vertex is (3, 3).
Your point is (1, -9) which is (x, y).
This means
x = 1
y = -9
Now, plug everything into your Vertex Form Equation:
-9 = a(1 - 3)² + 3
That’s your equation and final answer, but of course, if you need to, you can solve for a if you need to.
If a is positive, the parabola opens up. If a is negative, the parabola opens down.
Hope this helps!
To solve this we are going to use the half life equation
Where:
is the initial sample
is the time in years
is the half life of the substance
is the remainder quantity after
years
From the problem we know that:
Lets replace those values in our equation to find
:
We can conclude that after 1600 years of radioactive decay, the mass of the 100-gram sample will be
91.7 grams.
Answer:
Sample mean =119.42
Median = 92
25% trimmed mean = 102.42
10% trimmed mean = 95.69
Step-by-step explanation:
Data in increasing order :
12 13 20 23 31 35 40 43 48 49 58 62 66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141 147 159 161 168 183 207 249 262 289 323 388 513
Total no. of observations = 50
Sample mean = 
= 
= 119.42
Median: Since we have even number of observation
Median = 
= 
= 92
10% Trimmed Mean: We remove 5 values from each side
Trimmed set = 35 40 43 48 49 58 62 66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141 147 159 161 168 183 207 249
Trimmed mean = 
= 
= 102.42
25% Trimmed Mean: We remove 12 values from each side.
Trimmed set = 66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141
Trimmed mean = = 
= 95.69
