Answer: The word "function" is used to describe that the number of days is dependent on the number of workers.

Number of days = f(number of workers).

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the more the number of workers will be involved in the harvesting of onion, the lesser days it will take to complete.

Thus, the number of workers becomes the independent variable, which is the input, and the number of days becomes the dependent variable, which is the output.

Note: I have copied this off from a good lad that goes by "fahimmohammad47", but this answer is from a different source. I did change some stuff to make it have more sense.

vivado [14]
Your question does not say what were your options, therefore I will answer generically: in order to understand if a point (ordered pair) is contained in a line, you need to substitute the x-component of the pair in the equation of the line and see if the calculations give you the y-component of the pair.

Example:
Your line is <span> y = 4/3x + 1/3
Let's see if <span>(0, 0) and (2, 3) </span>belong to this line

y</span> = <span>4/3·0 + 1/3 = 1/3 </span>≠ 0
Therefore, the line does not contain (0, 0)

y = 4/3·2 + 1/3 = 9/3 = 3
Therefore, the line contains (2, 3)

A researcher is studying psychological factors in academic achievement among teenage girls. One variable she is particularly int
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is:option A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

A researcher is studying and examining psychological factors in academic achievement amongst teenage boys. One of the variable he is particularly paying more attention is in determination.

The quantifying of variability for the variable determination suggests how stretched out are the values for determination amid teenage boys (do all boys that are still in their teenage years have the same determination) and how constant are the values of determination amid teenage boys.

According to a survey, 10% of Americans are afraid to fly. Suppose 1100 Americans are sampled. a) What is the probability that 1
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

a) 14.46%

b) 0.00%

c) 1.54%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the survey, 10% of Americans are afraid to fly.

This means p=0.10 and q=1-0.10=0.90.

If 1100 Americans are sampled, then the sample size is n=1100 .

The mean of the distribution is \mu=np.

This means \mu=1100\times 0.10=110

The standard deviation is \sigma=\sqrt{npq}

We substitute the values to get:

\sigma=\sqrt{1100\times 0.1\times 0.9}=9.95

a) We want to find the probability that 121 or more Americans in the survey are afraid to fly.

We first apply the continuity correction factor to get: P(X\ge121)=P(X\:>\:121-0.5)\\P(X\ge121)=P(X\:>\:120.5)

We now convert to Z-scores to get:

P(X\:>\:120.5)=P(z\:>\:\frac{120.5-110}{9.95})=1.06\\

From the standard normal distribution table P(z>1.06)=0.1446

As a percentage, the probability is 14.46%

b) We want to find the probability that 165 or more Americans in the survey are afraid to fly.

We apply the CCF to get:

P(X\ge165)=P(X\:>\:165-0.5)\\P(X\ge165)=P(X\:>\:164.5)

We convert to z-scores:

P(X\:>\:164.5)=P(z\:>\:\frac{164.5-110}{9.95})=5.48

From the normal distribution, P(z>164.5)=0

c)  First, 8% of 1100 is 88.

We want to find the probability that 88 or less Americans in the survey are afraid to fly.

We apply the CCF to get:

P(X\le88)=P(X\:

We convert to z-scores:

P(X\:

From the normal distribution, P(z>\:-2.16)=0.0154

As a percentage, we get 1.54%

Which statement shows how two polynomials 4x + 6 and 2x2 − 8x demonstrate the closure property when multiplied?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x is a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : polynomials 4x+6 and2x^{2} -8x

Solution:

(4x+6)*(2x^{2} -8x)

4x(2x^{2} -8x)+6(2x^{2} -8x)

8x^{3} -32x^{2}+12x^{2} -48x

8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x

Polynomial :An expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms that contain different powers of the same variable.

Thus 8x^{3} -20x^{2} -48x is a polynomial

Hence option A is correct.

A park district is building an outdoor tennis court based on a scale drawing that measures 30cm long by 13.75 cm and uses the sc
Yuliya22 [10]

The actual area of the tennis court is 264 m²

First use the scale to find the actual dimensions of the court:

1 cm : 0.8m

30 cm in the drawing would be:

= 0.8 x 30

= 24 m outside

13.75cm in the drawing would be:

= 0.8 x 13.75

= 11 m outside

Area of a rectangle (which is what the dimensions resemble):

= Length x width

= 24 x 11

= 264 m²

In conclusion, the area of the tennis court is 264 m²
