Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
You need the smallest positive integer for which f(x) > 0.
f(1) = 3 -4 -3 -1 = -5
f(2) = ((3·2 -4)2 -3)2 -1 = (4 -3)2 -1 = 1
x = 2 is the smallest integer for which f(x) > 0.
NEED HELP FOR THIS QUESTION
I want to buy some Botswana pulas and the exchange rate is 8.25 BWP = £1 if I buy them abroad using a credit card or 8.5 BWP = £1 for a cash transaction at a Bureau de Change. The credit card company will charge me 2.3% commission on a credit card transaction whereas a Bureau de Change charges 2% commission plus a fee of £3.
Write down an expression for the cost (including commission) of buying a particular number of Botswana pulas
(a) by credit card and
(b) from a Bureau de Change.
c. Evaluate each of these expressions for 700 BWP, 800 BWP, and 1000 BWP respectively.
d. Hazard a guess as to the number of pulas you would have to buy for the cost to be the same whether you use a credit card or cash.
Answer:
(a) A = 0.00278787878787878x
(b) B = 0.00235294117647058x + 3
(c) The answers are as follows:
For buying by credit card
For 700 BWP: Cost = A = £1.95
For 800 BWP: Cost = A = £2.23
For 800 BWP: Cost = A = £2.79
For buying from a Bureau de Change
The equation (4) is used as follows:
For 700 BWP: Cost = B = £4.65
For 800 BWP: Cost = B = $4.88
For 1000 BWP: Cost = B = £5.35
(d) You would have to buy 6,897.54 pulas for the cost to be the same whether you use a credit card or cash.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) by credit card
For the exchange rate, we have:
8.25 BWP = £1 ⇒ 8.25 / 8.25 BWP = £1 / 8.25 = 1.00 BWP = £0.121212121212121
The expression can therefore be written as follows:
A = £0.121212121212121 * r * x ................. (1)
Where;
A = cost (including commission) of buying a particular number of Botswana pulas by credit card
r = commission on a credit card transaction = 2.3%, or 0.023
x = the number of pulas bought
Substituting for r into equation (1), we have:
A = £0.121212121212121 * 0.023 * x
A = 0.00278787878787878x ................. (2)
Equation (2) is the expression.
(b) from a Bureau de Change
For the exchange rate, we have
8.5 BWP = £1 ⇒ 8.5 / 8.5 BWP = £1 / 8.5 = 1.00 BWP = 0.117647058823529
B = (£0.117647058823529 * r * x) + F ................. (3)
Where;
B = cost (including commission) of buying a particular number of Botswana pulas by from a Bureau de Change.
r = commission charged by Bureau de Change. = 2%, or 0.02
x = the number of pulas bought
F = fee = £3
Substituting for r and F into equation (3), we have:
B = (£0.117647058823529 * 0.02 * x) + £3
B = 0.00235294117647058x + 3 ................. (4)
Equation (4) is the expression.
c. Evaluate each of these expressions for 700 BWP, 800 BWP, and 1000 BWP respectively.
For buying by credit card
The equation (2) is used as follows:
For 700 BWP: A = £0.00278787878787878 * 700 = £1.95
For 800 BWP: A = £0.00278787878787878 * 800 = £2.23
For 800 BWP: A = £0.00278787878787878 * 1000 = £2.79
For buying from a Bureau de Change
The equation (4) is used as follows:
For 700 BWP: B = (£0.00235294117647058 * 700) + £3 = £1.65 + £3 = £4.65
For 800 BWP: B = (£0.00235294117647058 * 800) + £3 = £1.88 + £3 = $4.88
For 1000 BWP: B = (£0.00235294117647058 * 1000) + £3 = £2.35 + £3 = £5.35
d. Hazard a guess as to the number of pulas you would have to buy for the cost to be the same whether you use a credit card or cash.
This can be calculated by equating equations (2) and (4) and then solve for x as follows:
0.00278787878787878x = 0.00235294117647058x + 3
0.00278787878787878x - 0.00235294117647058x = 3
x(0.00278787878787878 - 0.00235294117647058) = 3
x0.0004349376114082 = 3
x = 3 / 0.0004349376114082
x = 6,897.54 pulas
Therefore, you would have to buy 6,897.54 pulas for the cost to be the same whether you use a credit card or cash.

A radio that costs $29.49 was marked up by 35%
Answer:
the new price of the radio is $39.81
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the cost by the mark up to find how much the price was raised by
29.49•0.35= 10.32
then add the mark up to the original price
10.32+29.49= $39.81
and I rounded to the hundreds place because it's money

There is a theory that children wearing superhero costumes are more likely to harm themselves because of the unrealistic impressions of invincibility that these costumes could create. Below there is data about the severity of injury (on a scale from 0, no injury, to 100, death) for children reporting to the emergency center at hospitals and information on which superhero costumes they were wearing (Spiderman, Superman, Batman).

Compute the following descriptive statistics for each group. (30 points total)
a. Mean
b. Sample size (n) for each group
c. Standard Deviation
d. Square root of n
e. Standard error of the mean (SEM)
Answer:
[tex]Mean = 47[/tex]
[tex]n = 6[/tex]
[tex]s= 16.56[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt n = 2.45[/tex]
[tex]SEM = 11.55[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The above data
Solving (a): Mean of each group
Mean is calculated as:
[tex]Mean = \frac{\sum x}{N}[/tex]
[tex]Mean = \frac{55 + 31 + 58 + 20 + 47 + 37+68 + 32 + 85 + 69 +58 + 52+26 + 47 + 30 +35 + 53 + 43}{18}[/tex]
[tex]Mean = \frac{846}{18}[/tex]
[tex]Mean = 47[/tex]
Solving (b): The sample size of each group
This is the number of rows in each group.
Hence:
[tex]n = 6[/tex]
Solving (c): Standard deviation (s)
This is calculated as:
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x - \bar x)^2}{N}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]s= \sqrt{\frac{(55 - 47)^2 + (31 - 47)^2 +......... + (43 - 47)^2}{18}}[/tex]
[tex]s= \sqrt{\frac{4936}{18}}[/tex]
[tex]s= \sqrt{274.22}[/tex]
[tex]s= 16.56[/tex]
Solving (d): Square root of n
[tex]\sqrt n = \sqrt 6[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt n = 2.45[/tex]
Solving (e): SEM
This is calculated as:
[tex]SEM = \frac{s}{\sqrt N}[/tex]
[tex]SEM = \frac{47}{\sqrt{16.56}}[/tex]
[tex]SEM = \frac{47}{4.07}[/tex]
[tex]SEM = 11.55[/tex]

A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a ballet at a theater that has 3840 seats. The students left 2496 seats vacant. What percentage of the seats in the theater were filled by the 6th graders on the trip?
Answer:
35%
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
35%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must calculate how many seats are taken by 6th graders. We do this by subtracting the total seats by vacant seats. 3840-2496=1,334. Then, we must find the percent of students that were 6th grade who filled the seats. We do this by dividing all the chairs taken by the 6th graders and divide it by the total chairs which gets you .35. And with percentages, you move the decimal place two times to the right which gets you 35%.

Frankie factored the expression ls 14m + 21pm - 35mq as 7(2m + 3pm - 5mq) . She thinks she has factored out the greatest common factor because you cant factor out variables. Do you agree or disagree?Explain
Answer:
Disagree, as m is common to all terms of the expression and thus, can be factored. The factored expression is 7m(2 + 3p - 5q)
Step-by-step explanation:
If a variable is common to all terms of an expression, it can be factored.
14m + 21pm - 35mq
Here, m is common to all terms of the expression, so the factored expression is:
[tex]7m(\frac{14m}{7m} + \frac{21pm}{7m} - \frac{35mq}{7m}) = 7m(2 + 3p - 5q)[/tex]
Disagree, as m is common to all terms of the expression and thus, can be factored. The factored expression is 7m(2 + 3p - 5q)

1. Two walls of a room or being painted each measure 16 6/2' how many square feet will be painted
2. A rectangular canvas covers 225 inches on a wall if the canvas has a height of 18 inches then what is the base
Answer:
3.167 ft²
12.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)
Measure of each wall : 16 6/2 '
Number of walls = 2
Total area to be painted :
16 6/2' * 2 = (16 + 3) * 2 = 19 * 2 = 38 inches
1 feet = 12 inches
x = 38 inches
12x = 38
x = 38 / 12 = 3.167 ft²
2.)
Area of rectangular canvas = 225
Height = 18
Base, b =?
Area of rectangle = height * base
225 = 18 * b
225 / 18 = 18b / 18
12.5 = b
Base = 12.5 inches

The graph of a sine function is shown. Plot the line that represents the midline of this periodic function.
Answer: The midline should be a horizontal one, at y=4
Step-by-step explanation: See above answer.
Midline of the periodic function given in the picture will be y = 4.
Mid-line of the periodic function: Midline of a periodic function is the line located half-way between the maximum and the minimum values.
From the graph attached in the question,
Maximum value of the periodic function → y = 5
Minimum value of the function → y = 3
Midline of the function → [tex]y=\frac{3+5}{2}[/tex] ⇒ y = 4
Therefore, midline of the periodic function given in the picture will be y = 4.
