F^1(-2) = 2(-2) = -4
f(-4) = 1/2 * -4 = -2

f(f^-1(x)) = x so answer is -2

Answer: The required values are

$f^{-1}(-2)=-4,~~f(-4)=-2,~~f(f^{-1}(-2))=-2.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given a function f(x) and its inverse as follows :

$f(x)=\dfrac{1}{2}x,\\\\\\f^{-1}(x)=2x.$

We are to find the values of $f^{-1}(x),~f(-4),~f(f^{-1}(-2)).$

The values are evaluated in the following manner :

$f^{-1}(-2)=2\times(-2)=-4,\\\\\\f(-4)=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(-4)=-2,\\\\\\f(f^{-1}(-2))=f(-4)=-2.$

Thus, the required values are

$f^{-1}(-2)=-4,~~f(-4)=-2,~~f(f^{-1}(-2))=-2.$

Amala listed her assets and liabilities. Credit Card Balance Car (Paid in full) Jewelry Student Loan Savings Account Stocks $850

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Total of Amala’s liabilities is $5500 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Liabilities is defined as the sums of money which it owes .

As given

Amala listed her assets and liabilities. Credit Card Balance Car (Paid in full) Jewelry Student Loan Savings Account Stocks $850 $2,200 $125 $2,500 $1,200 $1,500 .

As Credit card balance , car (Paid in full) and student loan are Amala liabilities .

Thus

Total amount of Amala’s liabilities = Credit card balance + car + student loan .

Putting all the values in the above

Total amount of Amala’s liabilities = 850 + 2200 + 2500

= $5500

Therefore the total of Amala’s liabilities is $5500 .

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

We conlude that it is cluster random sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

The buyer for an electronics store wants to estimate the proportion of defective wireless game controllers in a shipment of 5,000 controllers from the store's primary supplier. The shipment consists of 200 boxes each containing 25 controllers. The buyer numbers the boxes from 1 to 200 and randomly selects six numbers in that range. She then opens the six boxes with the corresponding numbers, examines all 25 controllers in each of these boxes, and determines the proportion of the 150 controllers that are defective.

We conlude that it is cluster random sample.

Many residents of suburban neighborhoods own more than one car but consider one of their cars to be the main family vehicle. The

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

95.4% of family vehicles is between 1 and 3 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 2

Standard Deviation, σ = 6 months = 0.5 year

We are given that the distribution of age of cars is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P(family vehicles is between 1 and 3 years old)

$P(1 \leq x \leq 3)\\\\ = P(\displaystyle\frac{1 - 2}{0.5} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{3-2}{0.5}) = P(-2 \leq z \leq 2)\\\\= P(z \leq 2) - P(z < -2)\\= 0.977 -0.023 = 0.954= 95.4\%$

$P(1 \leq x \leq 3) = 95.4%$

95.4% of family vehicles is between 1 and 3 years old.
