Answer:

Option D.   [tex]g(x)=5(0.8)^{x}+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Main concepts

Concept 1: identifying horizontal asymptote

Concept 2: assuring decreasing exponential function

Concept 1. identifying horizontal asymptote

Any exponential function of the form [tex]y=a*b^x[/tex] has a horizontal asymptote on the x-axis.  A constant (positive or negative) added to the end of the exponential expression will shift the graph of the exponential function up (if positive) or down (if negative) the number of units equal to the magnitude of the number.  Since the original function f(x) has a "+2" at the end, it has been shifted up 2 units.  Thus, we can eliminate answers A and C from feasible answers since they each shift the exponential function up 3 units, not 2.

Concept 2. assuring decreasing exponential function

Exponential functions of the form [tex]y=a*b^x[/tex] increase or decrease based on the value of "b".

Observe that the graph of the function f(x) is decreasing, and the value of b=0.5.

To ensure that g(x) also decreases, the b-value must be between 0 and 1, which eliminates option B.

Option D is the correct answer because the value of "b" is between 0 and 1 (making the graph of the function a decreasing exponential), and the number added at the end is "+2", causing the horizontal asymptote to be at a height of positive 2.

The calculated values of the angle measures when converted to radians are 1.31π rad and 3.34π rad

To convert angles from degrees to radians, we multiply the number of degrees by π/180.

This means that

Angle = Degree measure * π/180

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

Angle 236 = 236 * π/180

Evaluate the products

Angle 236 = 1.31π rad

Next, we repeat the same process for the second angle 601 degrees

Angle 601 = 601 * π/180

Evaluate the products

Angle 601 = 3.34π rad

Hence, the angles are 1.31π rad and 3.34π rad

The percentage increase in the number of water bottles the company manufactured from February to April is 19%.

In March, the company manufactured 7% more water bottles than in February:

Number of water bottles in March = 4,100 + 7% of 4,100

Number of water bottles in March = 4,387

In April, the company manufactured 500 more water bottles than in March:

Number of water bottles in April = 4,387 + 500

Number of water bottles in April = 4,887

To find the percent increase from February to April, we can use the following formula:

percent increase = (new value - old value) / old value x 100%

percent increase = (4,887 - 4,100) / 4,100 * 100%

Although weight and mass are frequently used interchangeably, they have distinct meanings in the study of physics. Weight is a measurement of the force of gravity acting on an item, whereas mass is a measure of the amount of matter that makes up an object. Weight is typically expressed in newtons (N) or pounds, while mass is typically expressed in kilogrammes (kg) (lb). While an object's mass remains constant, its weight can change depending on how strongly gravity is pulling on it.

46. We know that,

1 fluid ounce = 29.5735 mL

4 fluid ounces = 4 x 29.5735 = 118.294 mL

Each dose is 12.5 mL:

118.294 / 12.5 = 9.46

So there are 9 complete doses available from the bottle.

47. Given, 1 tablespoon is equal to 15 mL.

To answer these, we can use the standard normal distribution & z-scores. A z-score represents the number of standard deviations a value is from the mean. The formula to calculate a z-score is: z = (x - μ) / σ, where x is the value, μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation.

A) To find the proportion of pregnancies that last more than 278 days, we first calculate the z-score for 278 days: z = (278 - 272) / 12 = 0.5. Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the proportion of values above a z-score of 0.5 is approximately 0.3085. So, about 30.85% of pregnancies last more than 278 days.

B) To find the proportion of pregnancies that last between 257 and 275 days, we first calculate the z-scores for both values: z1 = (257 - 272) / 12 = -1.25 and z2 = (275 - 272) / 12 = 0.25. Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the proportion of values between z-scores of -1.25 and 0.25 is approximately 0.3944. So, about 39.44% of pregnancies last between 257 and 275 days.

C) To find the probability that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 266 days, we first calculate the z-score for 266 days: z = (266 - 272) / 12 = -0.5. Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the proportion of values below a z-score of -0.5 is approximately 0.3085. So, there is about a 30.85% chance that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 266 days.

D) To determine if very preterm babies are unusual, we first calculate the z-score for 242 days: z = (242 - 272) / 12 = -2.5. Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the proportion of values below a z-score of -2.5 is approximately 0.0062. Since this value is less than 0.05, we can conclude that very preterm babies are unusual.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula for continuous compounding to determine how long it will take each account to reach $1,800.

For Michael's account, the formula is:

A = P*e^(rt)

where:

A is the amount in the account after t years

P is the principal

r is the annual interest rate

t is the time in years

Plugging in the values given, we get:

1,800 = 1,000*e^(0.0475t)

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:

ln(1,800/1,000) = 0.0475t

t = ln(1,800/1,000)/0.0475

t ≈ 8.55 years

So it will take approximately 8.55 years for Michael's account to reach $1,800.

Similarly, for Peter's account, the formula is:

A = P*e^(rt)

where:

A is the amount in the account after t years

P is the principal

r is the annual interest rate

t is the time in years

Plugging in the values given, we get:

1,800 = 1,200*e^(0.0425t)

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:

ln(1,800/1,200) = 0.0425t

t = ln(1,800/1,200)/0.0425

t ≈ 9.03 years

So it will take approximately 9.03 years for Peter's account to reach $1,800.

Therefore, Michael's account will grow to $1,800 first as it will take less time (8.55 years) compared to Peter's account (9.03 years).

Answer:

√75 =8.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 75 is an irrational number where the numbers after the decimal point go up to infinity. √75 = 8.660.√75 cannot be written in the form of p/q, hence it is an irrational number. irrational with never-ending digits.

Let's see how to find the square root of 75 by the long division method.

Step 1: Express 75 as 75.000000. We take the number in pairs from the right. Take 75 as the dividend.

Step 2: Now find a quotient which is the same as the divisor. Multiply quotient and the divisor and subtract the result from 75.

Step 3: Now double the quotient obtained in step 2. Here is 2 × 8 = 16. 160 becomes the new divisor.

Step 4: Apply decimal after quotient '8' and bring down two zeros. We have 1100 as the dividend now.

Step 5: We need to choose a number that while adding to 160 and multiplying the sum with the same number we get a number less than 1100. 160+ 6 = 166 and 166 × 6 = 996. Subtract 996 from 1100. We get 104

Step 6: Bring down two zeros again and place it after 104, so that it becomes 10400 which is the new dividend. Now multiply the number in the quotient by 2. Here it is 86. We get 172. Have it as 1720. Now find a number at the unit's place of 1720 multiplied by itself gives 10400 or less. We find that  1726  × 6 = = 10356. Find the remainder.

Step 7 : Repeat the process until we get the remainder equal to zero. The square root of 75 up to two places is obtained by the long division method. Thus √75 = 8.66

40(2.25)ˣ function equation is represented by the graph transformation.

What do graph transformations mean?

Changes to the graph of a parent function are referred to as transformations. Transformations may be divided into three categories: translations, reflections, and dilations. There are two types of transformations that may be done to a function: vertical (which affects the y-values) and horizontal.

                               (affects the x-values). The following guidelines apply to the function translation and transformation: The function is moved up b units by f (x) + b. The function is moved downward by the notation f (x) b. The function is moved left by the value of f (x + b).

Let the function be of the form

  f(X ) = a(b)ˣ

Then the point (0,40) lies on the graph of this function. This point must satisfy the equation of the function.

We substitute the point to get,

  40 = a(b)⁰

This implies that,

   40 = a(1)

    40 = a

We substitute a=40 into the function equation to get,

         f(x) = 40(b)ˣ

The point (1,90) also lies on the graph of the function. This gives us,

       90 = 40(b)¹

       90 = 40b

      b = 90/40

       b = 2.25

We substitute the value of b also into function to get,
