definition of the difference quotient of a function
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference quotient is a measure of the average rate of change of the function over an interval (in this case, an interval of length h). The limit of the difference quotient (i.e., the derivative) is thus the instantaneous rate of change.

determine which lines are parallel??
Answer:
looks like the parallel lines are "l" and "n"
Step-by-step explanation:
when two lines are parallel, they should be across from each other going the same way. For example: / / , or \ \ sometimes even on top of each other. It can't be line "m" because it seems a little slanted. Parallel lines have to be the same length and same size. It can't be line "t" because the line is going in a different direction.

7. Which strategy will give him the most representative sample of students at his college?
A. Strategy 1
B. Strategy 2
C. Strategy 3
Answer:
Strategy 1:
I) D: Systematic Sampling
II) D: non - response bias.
Strategy 2:
I) B: Convenience Sampling
II) A: Selective bias
Strategy 3:
I) B: Cluster Sampling
II) B: non - response bias.
7) A: Strategy 1
Step-by-step explanation:
For Strategy 1,
I) the sampling method is systematic sampling. This is because Systematic sampling is a kind of method for probability sampling whereby sample members from a larger population will be selected according to a random starting point but it will be for a fixed or periodic interval.
Now, we were told that he chooses a random number k between 1 and 15 and then samples that person and every kth person on the list. This corresponds to a random starting point as shown in systematic sampling above.
We are also told that he emails the survey to each of the people in the sample and asks them to complete it by next Friday. This corresponds to a fixed time interval in the definition too. Thus, it is proven to be systematic sampling.
II) The bias here will be Nonresponse bias Strategy. This is because all the students may not respond to the survey as it is possible that the students may forget to fill the survey or may ignore it or may be too busy to reply. Thus, it is a non - response bias.
For Strategy 2: He gives out the survey only to his friends, and makes sure each one of them fills out the survey
I) The sampling method here is convenience sampling which can be defined as a sampling method where the sampling units are selected in line with how convenient it is for the researcher. In this case he has given it to only his friends and made sure they filled. Which means he did it with a convenience bias.
II) Because he gave it to only his friends, he may not have a true reflection of the research as it was inky his friends instead of being random where he can have diverse views that can truly represent the population. Thus, it is a selection bias.
For strategy 3;He randomly chooses 3 floors of the largest dorm on campus and distributes a paper survey to each resident on those floors. He places a box in the common room of the dorm to collect the completed surveys.
I) The type of sampling used here is cluster sampling which is defined as a sampling method where the population is divided into clusters and random sample picked from each cluster. In this case, the population has been divided into 3 floors and he randomly distributed to residents on each of those floors. Thus, it is an example of Cluster sampling
II) The bias here will be non - response bias because the could choose not to respond to the paper survey for various reasons and thus not all will respond. This leads to a non - response bias.
7) Strategy 1 will give the most representative sample of students at his college because he selected from the entire list of 1500 students.

What is the area of the shaded portion to the nearest hundredth? Enter the answer in the box.
square yards
What is the answer of the green portion?
Answer : The area of the shaded portion is 33.72 yd².
Step-by-step explanation :
Given:
Length of the box = 10 yd
Width of the box = 4 yd
Area of the shaded portion = Area of rectangular box - Area of half circle
First we have to calculate the area of rectangular box.
Area of rectangular box = Length of the box × Width of the box
Area of rectangular box = 10 yd × 4 yd
Area of rectangular box = 40 yd²
Now we have to calculate the area of half circle.
As we know that:
Area of circle = π × r²
where,
r = radius of circle
Area of half circle = [tex]\frac{\pi \times r^2}{2}[/tex]
Radius of circle = [tex]\frac{4yd}{2}=2yd[/tex]
Area of half circle = [tex]\frac{3.14 \times (2yd)^2}{2}[/tex]
Area of half circle = 6.28 yd²
Now we have to calculate the area of the shaded portion.
Area of the shaded portion = Area of rectangular box - Area of half circle
Area of the shaded portion = 40 yd² - 6.28 yd²
Area of the shaded portion = 33.72 yd²
Therefore, the area of the shaded portion is 33.72 yd².
Point J is between H and K on line segment HK. Use the given information to solve for X. Also find the length of line segment HJ.
HK = 33
HJ = 3x-4
JK = 2x+7
X= ?
The length of line segment HJ= ?
Answer:
x=-3, so now u plug it in, 3(-3)-4=?
answer: HJ is -13.
Using line segments concepts, it is found that:
The value of x is 6.The length of line segment HJ is 14.-------------------------------
Point J is between H and K in a line segment HK, thus:[tex]HK = HJ + JK[/tex]
-------------------------------
We are given that:
[tex]HK = 33[/tex][tex]HJ = 3x - 4[/tex][tex]JK = 2x + 7[/tex]Thus, replacing into the equation, it is possible to solve for x.
-------------------------------
[tex]HK = HJ + JK[/tex]
[tex]33 = 3x - 4 + 2x + 7[/tex]
[tex]5x + 3 = 33[/tex]
[tex]5x = 30[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{30}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x = 6[/tex]
The value of x is 6.
-------------------------------
The length of line segment HJ is:
[tex]HJ = 3x - 4 = 3(6) - 4 = 18 - 4 = 14[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
In the year 2004, a survey was undertaken to find whether citizens of a certain political party supported their party's candidate for governor. In a sample of 300 citizens of this party, 95% of them expressed support for their party's candidate. A similar survey was conducted four years later and showed that 91% of a sample of 350 citizens of this party expressed support for their party's candidate. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions of citizens of this party who supported their gubernatorial candidate in 2004 and citizens of this party who supported their gubernatorial candidate four years later. Assume that random samples are obtained and the samples are independent. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) z0.10 z0.05 z0.025 z0.01 z0.005 1.282 1.645 1.960 2.326 2.576
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions is (0.001, 0.079).
Step-by-step explanation:
The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions is:
[tex]CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}[/tex]
The information provided is as follows:
[tex]\hat p_{1}=0.95\\\hat p_{2}=0.91\\n_{1}=300\\n_{2}=350\\[/tex]
The critical value of z for 95% confidence level is 1.96.
Compute the 95% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions as follows:
[tex]CI=(\hat p_{1}-\hat p_{2})\pm z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_{1}(1-\hat p_{1})}{n_{1}}+\frac{\hat p_{2}(1-\hat p_{2})}{n_{2}}}[/tex]
[tex]=(0.95-0.91)\pm 1.96\times\sqrt{\frac{0.95(1-0.95)}{300}+\frac{0.91(1-0.91)}{350}}\\\\=0.04\pm 0.0388\\\\=(0.0012, 0.0788)\\\\\approx (0.001, 0.079)[/tex]
Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions is (0.001, 0.079).

Which is an equation of the line with slope 2 that passes through (3, 1)? Ay-1 = 2(x-3) By + 1 = 2(x + 3) Cy-3 = 2(x - 1) Dy- 3 = (x - 2)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = 2 and (a, b) = (3, 1 ), thus
y - 1 = 2(x - 3) → A
The equation of the line with slope 2 that passes through (3, 1) is [tex](y-1)=2(x-3)[/tex] and this can be determined by using the one-point slope form.
Given :
The line with slope 2 that passes through (3, 1).
The following steps can be used in order to determine the equation of the line with slope 2 that passes through (3, 1):
Step 1 - The one-point form of the line can be used in order to determine the equation of the line with slope 2 that passes through (3, 1).
Step 2 - The equation that shows one-point form is given below:
[tex](y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)[/tex]
where m is the slope and [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is the point on the line.
Step 3 - Substitute the values of the known terms in the above equation.
