Answer:

  • a = 6
  • b = 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of smallest sides in the two triangles is ...

  smaller / larger = 4/10

To find A and B, we write proportions involving corresponding side lengths.

__

Side A in the smaller triangle is ...

  A/15 = 4/10

  A = (4/10)(15) = 6

__

The ratio of larger to smaller is the inverse of the above ratio, so ...

  B/9 = 10/4

  B = (10/4)(9) = 22.5

A company had 80 employees whose salaries are summarized in the frequency distribution below. Find the standard deviation. A fre
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

SD = 7588.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the distribution table attached to for the step by step solution:

The formula for the mean, \bar{x} = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}

\bar {x} = \frac{1410040}{80} \\\bar {x} = 17625.5

The variance , V(X) = \sqrt{\frac{\sum f(x - \bar{x}^2)}{n-1} }

V(X) = \frac{4548750000}{80 - 1} \\V(X) = 57579113.92

Standard Deviation,

SD = \sqrt{V(X)} \\SD = \sqrt{57579113.92}

SD = 7588.09

Let f(x)=4x-1 and g(x)=2x^2+3. Perform each function operations and then find the domain.
Triss [41]
F(x) = 4x - 1
g(x) = 2x² + 3

1. (f + g)(x) = (4x - 1) + (2x² + 3)
    (f + g)(x) = 2x² + 4x + (-1 + 3)
    (f + g)(x) = 2x² + 4x + 2
    Domain: {x| -∞ < x < ∞}, (-∞, ∞)

2. (f - g)(x) = (4x + 1) - (2x² + 3)
    (f - g)(x) = 4x + 1 - 2x² - 3
    (f - g)(x) = -2x² + 4x + 1 - 3
    (f - g)(x) = -2x² + 4x - 2
    Domain: {x|-∞ < x < ∞}, (-∞, ∞)
3. (g - f)(x) = (2x² + 3) - (4x - 1)
    (g - f)(x) = 2x² + 3 - 4x + 1
    (g - f)(x) = 2x² - 4x + 3 + 1
    (g - f)(x) = 2x² - 4x + 4
    Domain: {x| -∞ < x < ∞}, (-∞, ∞)

4. (f · g)(x) = (4x + 1)(2x² + 3)
    (f · g)(x) = 4x(2x² + 3) + 1(2x² + 3)
    (f · g)(x) = 4x(2x²) + 4x(3) + 1(2x²) + 1(3)
    (f · g)(x) = 8x³ + 12x + 2x² + 3
    (f · g)(x) = 8x³ + 2x² + 12x + 3
    Domain: {x| -∞ < x < ∞}, (-∞, ∞)

5. (\frac{f}{g})(x) = \frac{4x - 1}{2x^{2} + 3}
    Domain: 2x² + 3 ≠ 0
                         - 3  - 3
                        2x² ≠ 0
                         2      2
                          x² ≠ 0
                           x ≠ 0
                  (-∞, 0) ∨ (0, ∞)

6. (\frac{g}{f})(x) = \frac{2x^{2} + 3}{4x - 1}
    Domain: 4x - 1 ≠ 0
                      + 1 + 1
                        4x ≠ 0
                         4     4
                         x ≠ 0
                (-∞, 0) ∨ (0, ∞)
