Answer:

Using the clustering estimation approach, the total approximate weight of the grapefruits is B. 35 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weights of the grapefruits are seen to hover just below or above 7, hence we will take 7 as our clustering value for our estimate, represented as follows:

Weights

7.47 ⇒ 7

7.23  ⇒ 7

6.46  ⇒ 7

7.48  ⇒ 7

6.81  ⇒ 7

Next, we'll sum 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 to calculate the weights of the grapefruits, leading us to an approximate total weight of B. 35 ounces.

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry at x = –3.5 and a zero at –9. What is the distance from the given zero to the line o
Svet_ta [12734]

Given:

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry positioned at x = –3.5 with one root located at –9.

To find:

The second root.

Solution:

It is understood that the line of symmetry splits the quadratic function's graph into two identical halves. Hence, both roots are equidistant from this line.

This implies that the line of symmetry passes through the midpoint of the two roots.

Let the other root be denoted as x.

-3.5=\dfrac{(-9)+x}{2}

Multiply both sides by 2.

-7=-9+x

Add 9 to both sides.

-7+9=-9+x+9

2=x

Consequently, the other zero of the quadratic function is concluded to be 2.

Jake forgot to replace the cap on a bottle of deodorant. The deodorant began to evaporate at the rate of 12% per day. If the ori
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

graph representing the function f of x equals 30 multiplied by 0.88 raised to the exponent of x

Step-by-step explanation:

The deodorant starts to evaporate, indicating a mass reduction, thus 12% represents the decay rate. In exponential decay, the function's graphical representation adheres to the formula:

y=a(1-r)^x

Where a signifies the starting quantity (a=30), r is the decay rate (r=0.12) and x denotes the time intervals, measured in days for this case. By inserting the given values into the formula:

y=30(1-0.12)^x\\y=30(0.88)^x

Which aligns with the "graph representing the function f of x equals 30 multiplied by 0.88 raised to the exponent of x".

The probability that an individual is left-handed is 0.12. in a class of 39 students, what is the probability of finding five le
Svet_ta [12734]

We start with the following information:

p = probability = 0.12<span>
n = total number of students = 39 </span>

x = number of left-handers = 5<span>
u = mean = p * n = 4.68
σ = standard deviation = √(n*p*(1-p)) = √(39 * 0.12 * 0.88) = 2.03</span>

Finding the z score:

z = (x – u) / σ

<span> z = (5 – 4.68) / 2.03
</span>

z = 0.1576 = 0.16

<span>

</span>Applying standard tables for z gives the p value as:

p value = 0.5636 = 56.36%

 

Consequently, there is a 56.36% probability.
