we know that

The multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function between two points is equal to

$[f(b) / f(a) ] / (b-a)$

Let

$A(1,6)\\B(2,4)$

we have that

$f(a)=6\\f(b)=4\\a=1\\b=2$

substitute in the formula

$[4 / 6 ] / (2-1)=4/6=2/3$

Let

$A(3,8/3)\\B(4,16/9)$

we have that

$f(a)=8/3\\f(b)=16/9\\a=3\\b=4$

substitute in the formula

$[(16/9) / (8/3) ] / (4-3)=48/72=2/3$

therefore

the answer is the option

B.) 2/3

Gina has 5 2/6 feet of silver ribbon and 2 4/6 of gold ribbon. how much more silver ribbon does gina have than golden ribbon?

MrRissso [65]

To answer the question above, we are simply to subtract the length of the gold ribbon which is 2 4/6 ft from the length of the silver ribbon, 5 2/6 feet. Mathematically,
5 2/6 feet - 2 4/6 feet = 8/3 feet
Therefore, Gina has 8/3 feet more of the silver ribbon than the golden ribbon.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

13 (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the equation 7000(1-0.19)^x and then the inequality y<500, the point of intersection should be 12.524, so the answer will be rounded up to 13 i think

Solve the equation. Negative StartFraction 9 Over 15 EndFraction y + StartFraction 3 Over 21 EndFraction = StartFraction 5 Over

mina [271]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9/15y + 3/21 = 5/15 y - 14/21. Adding 14/21 to both sides we then get 9/15y + 17/21 = 5/15y. Subtracting 5/15y from both sides, we get 4/15y + 17/21 = 0.

Then we get 4/15y = -17/21. Dividing by 4/15 gets us -17/21 * 4/15 = -68/315 = y.

The extract of a plant native to Taiwan has been tested as a possible treatment for Leukemia. One of the chemical compounds prod

True [87]

Answer:

a) 57.35%

b) 99.99%

c) 68.27%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a random variable X that is normally distributed with mean $\large\bf \mu$ and standard deviation $\large\bf \sigma$ , then

The probability that the random variable has a value less than a, P(X < a) = P(X ≤ a) is the area under the normal curve with mean $\large\bf \mu$ and standard deviation $\large\bf \sigma$ to the left of a.

The probability that the random variable has a value greater than b, P(X > b) = P(X ≥ b) is the area under the normal curve with mean $\large\bf \mu$ and standard deviation $\large\bf \sigma$ to the right of b.

The probability that the random variable has a value between a and b, P(a < X < b) = P(a ≤ X ≤ b) = P(a < X ≤ b)= P(a ≤ X < b) is the area under the normal curve with mean $\large\bf \mu$ and standard deviation $\large\bf \sigma$ between a and b.

In this case, the random variable is the collagen amount found in the extract of the plant. The mean is 63 g/ml and the standard deviation is 5.4 g/ml

(a) What is the probability that the amount of collagen is greater than 62 grams per mililiter?

As we have seen, we need to find the area under the normal curve with mean 63 and standard deviation 5.4 to the right of 62 (see picture).

You can find this value easily with a calculator or a spreadsheet. If you prefer the old-style, then you have to standardize the values and look up in a table.

If you have access to Excel or OpenOffice Calc, you can find this value by introducing the formula:

1- NORMDIST(62,63,5.4,1) in Excel

1 - NORMDIST(62;63;5.4;1) in OpenOffice Calc

and we will get a value of 0.5735 or 57.35%

(b) What is the probability that the amount of collagen is less than 90 grams per mililiter?

Now we want the area to the left of 90

NORMDIST(90,63,5.4,1) in Excel

NORMDIST(90;63;5.4;1) in OpenOffice Calc

You will get a value of 0.9999 or 99.99%

(c) What percentage of compounds formed from the extract of this plant fall within 1 standard deviations of the mean?

You can use either the rule that 68.27% of the data falls between $\large\bf \mu -\sigma$ and $\large\bf \mu +\sigma$ or compute area between 63 - 5.4 and 63 + 5.4, that is to say, the area between 57.6 and 68.4

In Excel

NORMDIST(68.4,63,5.4,1) - NORMDIST(57.6,63,5.4,1)

In OpenOffice Calc

NORMDIST(68.4;63;5.4;1) - NORMDIST(57.6;63;5.4;1)

In any case we get a value of 0.6827 or 68.27%

Mia’s work to find the slope of a trend line through the points (3, 10) and (35, 91) is shown below.

pochemuha

For this case the first thing you should know is that by definition the slope of the line is given by:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Where we have two ordered pairs:
P1 = (x1, y1)
P2 = (x2, y2)
We observe then that according to the formula, the error of mine was to invert the numerator with the denominator.
Answer:
C: Mia switched the numerator and the denominator.
