The function f(x) varies inversely with x and f(x)=2 when x = 16.

What is f(x) when x = 4?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is:  [D]:  "8" .

Step-by-step explanation:f y varies inversely with x;  then y = k/x ; with "k" being the "constant" in this equation.  

You can find the constant by substituting the values given: x = 16,  f(x) = y = 2 ;

So, f(x) = y = 2  = k/16 ;

→  2 = k / 16 ;

Solve for the constant; "k" ;

Multiply EACH SIDE of the equation by "16"

→  16* (2) = (k / 16) * 16 ;

→  32 = k ;

 ↔  k = 32 ;  

As such, we can write the equation:

y = k/ x ; as:

→  y = 32/ x ;

Since we are given:  "x = 4" ;  Plug in that value; and solve for "y" ;

y = 32/4 = 8 .

y = 8 .

y = f(x) ;

So;  f(x) = 8 ;  which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  "8" .

Answers

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

So I divided $50.25 by 15 and I got 3.35. Then I divided $40.20 by 12 and got 3.35 again. So I multiplied 8, 11, 14, and 17 by 3.35. I got the right answer for 8 (A) and 17 (D).

HELP!!!! Read the following story carefully, and then complete the activities that follow.

"Good-bye, Mom," Tino cried as he rushed out the door. Tino had his new fishing pole with him and was anxious to try it out.

Tino Kanaha (kan' ah hah) was a Hawaiian boy. He had just turned twelve the day before and had received the fishing pole as a gift from his father.

Tino's house was about a half mile from the cliff overlooking the leeward side of Maui. Many times Tino had climbed down to the rocks below and looked for seashells while his father fished for aku.

"Now it's my turn," thought Tino as he scurried out onto one of the rocks, "and I get to do it all by myself!"

"Aku, here I come!" yelled Tino excitedly as he cast his bait into the surf.

An hour later, Tino heard someone call his name. He looked up and saw his good friend, Kona. "Have you caught anything?" Kona yelled.

"Oh, hi, Kona," Tino said disappointedly. "Wait for me, and I'll be right up."

As Tino reeled in his line, he noticed the waves were much bigger than they had been before. "The wind is stronger, too, " thought Tino as he glanced at the darkening sky.

"We'd better hurry home," Tino said to Kona as he reached the top of the hill. The two boys ran as quickly as they could. They even took the short cut through the sugar cane field to save time.

Kona raced into his yard and, without stopping, he yelled, "Good-bye, Tino! I'll see you tomorrow!"

The first big drops of rain began to fall as Tino reached the front door of his house.

"Oh, I'm glad you're home!" Mrs. Kanaha said. "It is beginning to rain very hard!"

"The storm must be the reason the fish weren't biting," Tino said as he put his fishing pole into the rack on the porch, "but I'll try again tomorrow."



Give two details that are clues that Tino did not catch any fish.

Answers

Detail 1: In the second to last paragraph Tito states that “the storm must be the reason the fish weren’t biting” indicating that the he didn’t catch any fish

Detail 2: When Tito’s friend Mona asks “Have you caught anything ?” Tito doesn’t answer the question and only says “Oh hi Kona” which shows that he didn’t catch a fish yet
Clue #1 - “Oh, hi, Kona,” Tino said DISAPPOINTEDLY. “Wait for me, and I’ll be right up.”

Clue #2- “The storm must be the reason THE FISH WERENT BITING,” Toni said as he put his fishing pole into the rack on the porch, “but I’ll try again tomorrow.”

You are a personnel director and are interested in predicting the Number of Shares of Company Stock (Y) using the Number of Years Employed with the Company (X). You randomly selected 8 employees and found that the average number of shares is 525 and the average number of years employed is 22.5. If the slope (b1) is 20.0, what is the least squares estimate of the intercept (b0)?
a. 25.0
b. 75.0
c. 40.0
d. 80.5
e. None of these are correct

Answers

Answer:

b. 75.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the least squares estimate of the intercept (b0)

Using this formula

Intercept (b0) least squares estimate=[Shares average number-(Slope (b1)*Average number of years employed)]

Let plug in the formula

Intercept (b0) least squares estimate=[525-(20.0*22.5)]

Intercept (b0) least squares estimate=525-450

Intercept (b0) least squares estimate=75.0

Therefore the least squares estimate of the intercept (b0) will be 75.0

m is your rate of change/ slope

since the slope is +5

This means that your rate of change, in this case elevation, is 5 feet per minute.

As for b which is your y intercept, the -30 can be represented by the point (0,-30) on a graph it would be -30ft below the x axis. Meaning that if the diver lets say is the point he is 30 feet below sea level and acsending at a rate of 5 feet per minute.

current).

8/5-c - 8/5+c

Find the difference in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

16c

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest form is: [tex]\frac{16c}{25-c^2}[/tex].

Total distance = 16 miles.

So each distance = 16/2=8 miles.

Given: He can paddle the kayak at an average rate of 5 miles/hour.

And the speed of the current is = c

So the speed while going up = (5-c)

The speed while going down=(5+c).

So the time while going up = [tex]\frac{8}{5-c}[/tex]

The time while going down=[tex]\frac{8}{5+c}[/tex].

So the difference is:

[tex]\frac{8}{5-c}-\frac{8}{5+c}\\=\frac{8(5+c)}{(5-c)(5+c)}- \frac{8(5-c)}{(5-c)(5+c)}\\=\frac{8(5+c)-8(5-c)}{(5-c)(5+c)}\\=\frac{40+8c-40+8c}{(5-c)(5+c)}\\=\frac{16c}{(5-c)(5+c)}\\=\frac{16c}{25-c^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is A. The missing term is A-2. The sample size would be 6.

a. To answer the question, we need to know what sample space is.

What is a sample space?

A sample space is the total number of possible outcomes of an event.

Now, since there are Doors 1, 2 and 3 and Keys A, B and C. The sample space is

Key A: A-1, A-2, A-3

Key B: B-1, B-2, B-3

Key C: C-1, C-2, C-3

So, the missing item is A-2.

b.

The sample size would be 6.

To answer the question, we need to know what sample size is.

What is sample size?

The sample size is the size of the sample space.

If there were two doors instead of 3, the sample size would be since we have 2 doors and 3 keys. The sample size is 2 × 3 = 6.

So, the sample size would be 6.

So, the answer is A. The missing term is A-2. The sample size would be 6.
