How Do I Know If The Function Is A Linear Function?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This is not a linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a quadratic function.  If you were to make a table of the x and y values of the function it would look like this:

x    y

0   -4

1   -1

2    8

Just by looking at these three values, we can see that they do not increase at a consistent rate.  It increases by 3 from 0 to 1, but increase by 9 from 1 to 2.  You can tell if a function is linear by seeing if it increases at a constant rate.  (In this case it does not)

An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, , of minutes. The standard deviation of completion times is minutes. It is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. To test this claim, a random sample of completion times under new management was taken. The sample had a mean of minutes. Assume that the population is normally distributed. Can we support, at the level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the missing values;

Mean μ = 15.5 minutes

Standard deviation = 1.7 minutes

A Random sample of 90 completion

The sample mean = 15.4 minutes

Level of significance = 0.1

Then the following analysis can be made on the above study.

Firstly, the null hypothesis is [tex]\mathbf{H_o : \mu = 15.5}[/tex]

the alternative hypothesis is [tex]\mathbf{H_a: \mu < 15.5}[/tex]  

Since, the value is less than, then this is a one-tailed test.

The Z test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{ \overline x - \mu }{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} } \ \ \sim \ \ N(0.1)[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{ 15.4-15.5 }{\dfrac{1.7}{\sqrt{90}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{ -0.1 }{\dfrac{1.7}{ 9.4868} }[/tex]

Z = −0.560

The critical value of Z at 0.1  level  of significance is:

[tex]Z_{0.1} = -1.28[/tex]

Decision Rule: We fail to reject the null hypothesis sInce -0.560 > -1.28

Conclusion: NO, there is no evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time has decreased. We conclude that the mean completion time remains at 15.5 minutes.

Suppose that Bob can decide to go to work by one of the three modes of transportation; car, bus, or train. Because of high traffic, if he decides to go by car, there is a 50% chance he will be late. If he goes by bus there is a 20% chance he will be late. If he goes by train there is only 1% chance that he will be late. Suppose he takes the car 10% of the time, the bus 1% of the time, and the train 89% of the time, What is the probability that Bob will be late getting to work?

Using the Pythagorean identity, sin^2C + cos^2C = 1, solve for sinC.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sin(C)=\pm\sqrt{1-\cos^2(C)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Pythagorean Identity:

[tex]\sin^2(C)+\cos^2(C)=1\\[/tex]

We want to solve for sin(C).

First, we will subtract cos²(C) from both sides:

[tex]\sin^2(C)=1-\cos^2(C)[/tex]

Next, we will take the square root of both sides. Since we are taking an even-root, we will need to add plus/minus. Hence:

[tex]\sin(C)=\pm\sqrt{1-\cos^2(C)}[/tex]

Meryl needs to cut down 10.5 trees for every 555 cabins she builds.

Answers

Answer:

6.3 trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Meryl needs to cut down 10.5 trees for every 5 cabins she builds.

Let us find the number of trees Meryl needs to cut down to build 1 cabin by dividing 10.5 by 5.

Now let us multiply 2.1 by 3 to find the number of trees Meryl needs to cut down to build 3 cabins.

Therefore, Meryl needs to cut down 6.3 trees, if she builds 3 cabins.

find the measure of the line segment RQ​

Answers

Answer:  RQ = 48

===========================================

Work Shown:

RS*QS = (TS)^2

RS*(QR+RS) = (TS)^2

27*(5x-12+27) = (45)^2

27*(5x+15) = 2025

135x+405 = 2025

135x = 2025-405

135x = 1620

x = 1620/135

x = 12

Use this to find the length of QR, which is the same as RQ

QR = 5x-12

QR = 5*12-12

QR = 60-12

QR = 48

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  RQ = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of secant segment lengths to the points of intersection with the circle is the same for both secants. The tangent is a degenerate case where the two points of intersection are the same.

  ST·ST = SR·SQ

  SQ = ST^2/SR = 45^2/27 = 75

  RQ = SQ -SR = 75 -27

  RQ = 48

Answers

Answer:

no, it's not.

Step-by-step explanation:

300- 284 = 16

284 - 236 = 48

236 - 156 = 80

156 - 44 = 112

for every one the top line goes up, the bottom line changes too, but it's not at a constant rate. it's not constant, therefore it cannot be linear.

the rate of change formula (or slope formula, they're the same thing) is :

y2- y1/ x2 -x1 and to solve it you plug in the points. x is the same a t and y is h

284-300/ 1-0

-16 /1

-16 (this is the rate of change between the first two points)

236- 284/ 2-1

-48/ 1

-48 (rate of change between the second and third points)

since the rate of change isn't constant, it's not possible for it to be a linear relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

we are told that the hummer gets to 300miles on 20 gallons of gas

Required

The distance that the Hummer can go on 50 gallons of gas

Step two:

if 20 gallons gets to 300miles

the 50 gallons will get to x miles

cross multiply we have

A) Findi
Consider the curve x²y + y2x = 6
dy
in terms of x and y
B) Write the equation for the tangent line where x = 2 and y = 1.

Answers

Answer:

Part A)

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy+y^2}{x^2+2xy}[/tex]

Part B)

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{5}{8}x+\frac{9}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle x^2y+y^2x=6[/tex]

Part A)

We want to find the derivative of our function, dy/dx.

So, we will take the derivative of both sides with respect to x:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}\Big[x^2y+y^2x\Big]=\frac{d}{dx}\big[6\big][/tex]

The derivative of a constant is 0. We can expand the left:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}\Big[x^2y\Big]+\frac{d}{dx}\Big[y^2x\Big]=0[/tex]

Differentiate using the product rule:

[tex]\displaystyle \Big(\frac{d}{dx}\big[x^2\big]y+x^2\frac{d}{dx}\big[y\big]\Big)+\Big(\frac{d}{dx}\big[y^2\big]x+y^2\frac{d}{dx}\big[x\big]\Big)=0[/tex]

Implicitly differentiate:

[tex]\displaystyle (2xy+x^2\frac{dy}{dx})+(2y\frac{dy}{dx}x+y^2)=0[/tex]

Rearrange:

[tex]\displaystyle \Big(x^2\frac{dy}{dx}+2xy\frac{dy}{dx}\Big)+(2xy+y^2)=0[/tex]

Isolate the dy/dx:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}(x^2+2xy)=-(2xy+y^2)[/tex]

Hence, our derivative is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy+y^2}{x^2+2xy}[/tex]

Part B)

We want to find the equation of the tangent line at (2, 1).

So, let's find the slope of the tangent line using the derivative. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}_{(2,1)}=-\frac{2(2)(1)+(1)^2}{(2)^2+2(2)(1)}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}_{(2,1)}=-\frac{4+1}{4+4}=-\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Then by the point-slope form:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Yields:

[tex]\displaystyle y-1=-\frac{5}{8}(x-2)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle y-1=-\frac{5}{8}x+\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Hence, our equation is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{5}{8}x+\frac{9}{4}[/tex]
