Using the conditions for continuity, we find that the function D.) is continuous.
How to check if a function is continuous?A function f(x) is said to be continuous at a point x = a, in its domain if the following three conditions are satisfied:
f(a) exists (i.e. the value of f(a) is finite)the right-hand limit = left-hand limit, and both are finite.right-hand limit = left-hand limit = f(a)Since for -4 <= x < -2, -2 <= x < 4 and 4 <= x <= 8, the function f(x) is defined by straight lines , the function will be continuous for all x ≠ -2 and 4. Now for x = -2, 4, let us check all the three conditions:
A.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 6 = 4
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.
B.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 -2 = -4
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = -2. No need to check further.
C.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.
f(4) = 25 - 3*4 = 13
left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8
right hand limit = 25 - 3*4 = 13
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit, the function is not continuous at x = 4.
D.
f(-2) = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
left hand limit = -2 + 4 = 2
right hand limit = 0.5 * (-2)² = 2
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = -2.
f(4) = 20 - 3*4 = 8
left hand limit = 0.5 * (4)² = 8
right hand limit = 20 - 3*4 = 8
Since, left hand limit is not equal to right hand limit is equal to f(-2), the function is continuous at x = 4.
Thus, the function is continuous.

what are the zeroes of f(x)=(x-7)(x+8)
Answers
Answer:
The zeroes of f(x) = (x-7)(x+8) are 7 and -8.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to figure out what makes each of the equal to zero.
Step 1 : Make the 2 equations both equal 0.
x-7 = 0
x+8 = 0
Step 2: Solve for x
x-7 = 0
x=7
x+8 = 0
x=-8
So 7 and -8 are both zeroes of this function.

the amount of mil available per child in a day care centrr is given by the function m(x) =25/x, where x is the number of children and m is the quantity of available milk in liters. if 50 children are present on a day how much milk is available per child
Answers
Answer:
0.5 liters of milk are available per child.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of milk available per children:
The amount of milk, in liters, available for x children is given by:
[tex]m(x) = \frac{25}{x}[/tex]
50 children are present on a day
This means that [tex]x = 50[/tex]
How much milk is available per child?
This is m(50). So
[tex]m(50) = \frac{25}{50} = 0.5[/tex]
0.5 liters of milk are available per child.

Answers
Answer:
her salary will increase by $ 145 for every week
Step-by-step explanation:
x=1st paycheck (integer).
weekly raise = $ 145.
After completing the 1st week she will get $ (x+145).
Similarly after completing the 2nd week she will get
$ (x + 145) + $ 145.
= $ (x + 145 + 145)

Suppose you invest a certain amount of money in account that earns 3% annual interest. You also invest that same amount + $2000 that earns 4% annual interest. If the total interest from both accounts at the end of the year is $535, how much has been invested in each account?
Answers
Second account: $8500
Set x is amount of money in first account
=> x + 2000 is money in second account.
X*3% + (x+2000)*4% = 535
=> x = (53500 - 8000) / 7
X = 45500 / 7 = 6500
=> account #1 = x = 6500
Acc #2 = x + 2000 = 6500 + 2000 = 8500

A river is 212 mile long. What is the length of the river on a map, if the scale is 1 inch : 50 miles?
Answers
Answer:
4.24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1 inch / 50 miles = x / 212 miles Cross multiply
1 inch * 212 miles = 50 miles * x Divide by 50 miles
1 inch * 212 miles / 50 miles = x
x = 4.24 inches.
How much is 0.24 of an inch?
0.24 * 50 = 12
So 0.24 inches represents 12 miles.

x = -3 +/- square root(22)
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -b +/- square root(b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
these are both the quadratic formula but one is solved for the x and another for 0
a= 1
b= 6
c = -13
x= -6 +/- square root( 6^2 - 4(1)(13)) / 2(1)
x = -6 +/- sqrt( 36 + 52) / 2
x= -6 +/- sqrt (88) / 2
sqrt of 88 = 2 x sqrt (22)
divide 2 on each
x= -3 +/- sqrt (22)
For each of the following, assume that the two samples are obtained from populations with the same mean, and calculate how much difference should be expected, on average, between the two sample means.

d)3.00
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
n=4 scores
[tex]S^2_1=68[/tex]
[tex]S^2_2=76[/tex]
We have to find the difference should be expected, on average, between the two sample means.
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{S^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{S^2_2}{n_2}}[/tex]
[tex]n_1=n_2=4[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68}{4}+\frac{76}{4}}[/tex]
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68+76}{4}}[/tex]
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{36}=6[/tex]
Option d is correct.
Now, replace n by 16
[tex]n_1=n_2=16[/tex]
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68}{16}+\frac{76}{16}}[/tex]
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{\frac{68+76}{16}}[/tex]
[tex]S_{M_1-M_2}=\sqrt{9}=3[/tex]
Option d is correct.

+4d on both sides:
[tex]3xd + 4d = 4c[/tex]
Factorise d out of the left-hand side:

The weights of a certain type of captured fish can be described by a bell-shaped distribution (symmetric and unimodal) with a mean of 1050 grams and a standard deviation of 375 grams. What is the probability of fish that have weights above 675g
Answers
Answer:
0.913716
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a normal distribution :
Mean, x = 1050
Standard deviation, σ = 375
The Zscore = (x - mean) / σ
Zscore = (675 - 1050) / 275
Zscore = - 1.364
The probability :
P(Z > - 1.364)
P(Z > - 1.364) = 1 - P(Z < - 1.364) = 1 - 0.086284
P(Z > - 1.364) = 0.913716

Descriptive statistics refers to aspect of statistics which is employed when summarizing data. Descriptive statistics often use measure of center such as, mean, median and mode to give consider summary of both sample and population data. Measures of spread such as standard deviation and variance and so on also form part of descriptive statistics used for data summarization.

Step-by-step explanation:
The speedometers are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this question:
7 + 2 = 9 speedometers, which means that [tex]N = 9[/tex]
2 are not correctly calibrated, which means that [tex]k = 2[/tex]
3 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
Complete the probability distribution table.
Probability of each outcome.
So
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,0}*C_{7,3}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.4167[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,1}*C_{7,2}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{7,1}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.0833[/tex]
Only 2 defective, so [tex]P(X = 3) = 0[/tex]
