Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The piece of plastic needed to cover the sand pit is the same as the area of the sand pit. Since the sand pit has a width of 2.56meters and a length of 8.75meters, it means that the sand pit is rectangular in shape. The area of the sand pit is given by the formula:

Area = length × width

Area = 2.56 meters × 8.75 meters

Area = 22.4 m²

The plastic needed to cover the sand pit needs to have an area of 22.4 m²

For which function does f decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

f(x) = 0.85^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function that decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is given by:

f(x) =  {(1 - 0.15)}^{x}

We simplify the parenthesis to get:

f(x) = 0.85^{x}

Therefore the decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is

f(x) =  {0.85}^{x}

The second choice is correct.

Given f(x) = x3 – 2x2 – x + 2, the roots of f(x) are
kolezko [41]
You have the following expression given in the problem:

f(x) = x³ – 2x²<span> – x + 2

 Therefore, to find the roots, you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have:

 0 </span><span>= x3 – 2x2 – x + 2

 2. Then, when you factor, you obtain:

 (x-2)(x-1)(x+1)=0

 3. Therefore, you have that the roots are the following:

 x1=-1
 x2=1
 x3=2</span>

The number of bagels sold daily for two bakeries is shown in the table. Bakery A Bakery B 53 34 52 40 50 36 48 38 53 41 47 44 55
IrinaK [193]
You are given the number of bagels sold daily for bakeries A and B and are shown in the table above. Based on the above data, it is better to describe the centers of distribution in terms of the mean than the median. This is because all of the data from bakery A and B have values that are near the average and no data sample have possible outliers. For instance,

bakery A
mean (A) = [<span>53 + 34 + 52 + 40 + 50 + 36 + 48 + 38]/8 = 43.88

Bakery B
mean (B) =  [</span>53 + 41 + 47 + 44 + 55 + 40 + 51 + 39]/8 = 46.25

Even if bakery A and B has the 38 and 39 as the lowest data respectively, they are still near the average data.
