Biologists conducted a study to investigate the flying velocity of mosquitoes both before and after feeding. The following scatt

erplot shows the velocity after feeding, in centimeters per second, and the proportional increase in weight after feeding relative to the weight before feeding. For example, 0.5 indicates a 50 percent weight gain after feeding. One point on the graph is labeled M.

Answer:

It represents a mosquito that flew very fast after feeding relative to all other mosquitoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point is unusual because the velocity of the mosquito is substantially greater than all other velocities and is probably an outlier.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : At Deb’s Deli, a customer may choose either a sandwich and a salad or a sandwich and a soup for the lunch special.

The number of choices for sandwiches = 5

The number of choices for salad = 4

The number of choices for soup = 3

Now, the number of  possible lunch special combinations can be ordered will be :-

5\times4+5\times3=20+15=35

Hence, the number of  possible lunch special combinations can be ordered will be 35.

Which statements are true about the reflectional symmetry of a regular heptagon? Check all that apply. It has only 1 line of ref
Sav [38]

The answer is:

1- A line of symmetry will connect a vertex and a midpoint of an opposite side.

2- It has 7-fold symmetry.

The explanation for this answer is shown below:

1- By definition, a line of symmetry is an imaginary line that divides a figure into two equal images or equal halves. If you connect a vertex and a midpoint of an opposite side of an heptagon by drawing a line, you will obtain two equal halves.

2- An heptagon has seven vertices, therefore, based on the information mentioned above, it has 7-fold symmetry.

A student is deriving the quadratic formula. Her first two steps are shown. Step 1: –c = ax2 + bx Step 2: -c = a[x^2+b/ax] Which
marta [7]

Given choices:

(1) division property of equality

(2) factoring the binomial

(3)completing the square

(4)subtraction property of equality

Answer : (2) factoring the binomial

Step 1: -c = ax^2 + bx

Step 2:-c = a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]

In step 2, 'a' is taken out from ax^2 + bx. when we take out 'a' we divide each term by 'a'. so it becomes a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]

'a' is factored out in step 2. we call it as factoring a binomial.

The graph of f(x) = |x| is transformed to g(x) = [X + 11-7. On which interval is the function decreasing?
puteri [66]

Answer:

The interval of the decreasing function is (-∞ , -1) ⇒ g(x)

The interval of the decreasing function is (-∞ , 0) ⇒ f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve it

- Decreasing function means a function with a graph that moves

 downward as it is followed from left to right.

- For example, any line with a negative slope is decreasing function

- Lets look to the attached graph to understand the meaning of the

 decreasing function

∵ f(x) = IxI ⇒ green graph

∵ g(x) = Ix + 1I - 7 ⇒ purple graph

- From the graph f(x) translated 1 unit to the left and 7 units down to

 form g(x)

- The domains of f(x) and g(x) are all real numbers {x : x ∈ R}

- The range of f(x) is {y : y ≥ 0}

- The range of g(x) is {y : y ≥ -7}

# For f(x)

- The slope of the green line from (-∞ , 0) is negative

- The slope of the green line from (0 , ∞) is positive

# For g(x)

- The slope of the purple line from (-∞ , -1) is negative

- The slope of the purple line from (-1 , ∞) is positive

∵ The line with negative slope represent decreasing function

∴ The interval of the decreasing function is (-∞ , -1) ⇒ g(x)

∴ The interval of the decreasing function is (-∞ , 0) ⇒ f(x)

In college basketball, some teams get most of their points from just one player, and other teams are more balanced in scoring. C
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Baylor University</u>

6 players who each score 12 points per game

6 players who each score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,12,12,12,12,12,12

Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+12+12+12+12+12+12}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{12+0}{2}=6

<u>University of Maryland</u>

1 player scores 58 points per game,

1 player scores 14 points per game,

The rest(10) of the players score 0 points per game.

The Scores are: 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,14,58

Mean=\frac{0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+14+58}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{0+0}{2}=0

<u> Dartmouth College</u>

4 players score 5 points per game,

4 players score 6 points per game,

4 players score 7 points per game.

The Scores are: 5,5,5,5,6,6,6,6,7,7,7,7

Mean=\frac{5+5+5+5+6+6+6+6+7+7+7+7}{12} \\Mean=6\\Median=\frac{6+6}{2}=6

The following applies:

(B) At Maryland, the mean number of points per player per game is greater than the median number of points per player per game.

(D)The mean number of points per player per game is the same at all 3 schools.
