Let f(x)= [x/3] (where f(x) is the ceiling function). We learned that the floor and the ceiling functions are NOT invertible, but we also learned about the set of preimages of any value in the Range, the set of images. Keeping that in mind, give your answer in interval notation if necessary.

a. Find f-1({5})
b. Find f-1({-2})
c. Find f-1({x | 5 = x = 9 })
d. Find f-1({x | -6 = x = -2})

Answers

Answer 1

(a) We have ⌊x⌋ = 5 if 5 ≤ x < 6, and similarly ⌊x/3⌋ = 5 if

5 ≤ x/3 < 6   ==>   15 ≤ x < 18

(b) ⌊x⌋ = -2 if -2 ≤ x < -1, so ⌊x/3⌋ = -2 if

-2 ≤ x/3 < -1   ==>   -6 ≤ x < -3

In general, ⌊x⌋ = n if n ≤ x < n + 1, where n is any integer.

I do not understand what is being asked in (c) and (d), so you'll have to clarify...

The first term of an A.P is -8.the ratio of the 7th term to the 9th term is 5:8.calculate the numbers

Answers

Answer:

The 7th term is 10 and the 9th term is 16

(and the common difference d = 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If by calculate the numbers, you mean the 7th term and 9th term, first, you will determine the common difference.

The nth term of an A.P is given by the formula

Tₙ= a+(n-1)d

Where Tₙ is the nth term

a is the first term

and d is the common difference

From the question,

a = -8

T₇ : T₉ = 5:8

From the formula

T₇ = a + (7-1)d = a + 6d

and T₉ = a + (9-1)d = a + 8d

Then.

a + 6d : a + 8d = 5:8

But a = -8

∴ -8 + 6d : -8 + 8d = 5:8

We can write that

(-8 + 6d) / (-8 + 8d) = 5/8

Cross multiply

8(-8+6d) = 5(-8+8d)

-64 + 48d = -40 + 40d

48d - 40d = -40 + 64

8d = 24

d = 24/8

d = 3

∴ The common difference is 3

Now, for the 7th term

From

T₇ = a + 6d

T₇ = -8 + 6(3)

T₇ = -8 + 18

T₇ = 10

and for the 9th term

T₉ = a + 8d

T₉ = -8 + 8(3)

T₉ = -8 + 24

T₉ = 16

Hence, the 7th term is 10 and the 9th term is 16

Question 6 plz show ALL STEPS

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

6a. Both the x and y coordinates are negative so this means isn't must be in the Third Quadrant.

6b. The measure of this using the unt circle is

[tex] \cos(x) - \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \sin(x) = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

In the unit circle, this occurs about

an angle of 240 degrees. We can find coterminal angles within the interval of 2 pi to -2 pi. Just subtract 260 from theta.( which is 240)

[tex]240 - 360 = - 120[/tex]

So the angles in the interval is

240, -120.

6c. pi/2 is the same as 90 degrees so this means that

[tex](240 + 90) = 330[/tex]

In the unit circle, we know that at 330 degrees,

[tex] \cos(330) = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

[tex] \sin(330) = \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

So the coordinates are

(sqr root of 3/2, 1/2).

6d. pi is the same as 180 degrees so this means that

[tex](240 - 180) = 60[/tex]

In the unit circle, we know that 60 degrees,

[tex] \cos(60) = \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

[tex] \sin(60) = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

So the coordinates are

(1/2, sqr root of 3/2)

7. Ten samples of 15 parts each were taken from an ongoing process to establish a p-chart for control. a. Develop a p-Chart for 95 percent confidence (1.96 standard deviation). b. Based on the plotted data points, what comments can you make

Answers

Answer: Hello the table related to your question is attached below

answer:

a) attached below

b) The process is out of control because two ( 2 ) values from the defect rate table are out of the control limits at 95% as seen in the p-chart in question ( A )

Step-by-step explanation:

a) p-chart for 95% confidence

std = 1.96

Total defects = ∑ number of defective items in the sample = 10

number of samples = 10

sample size ( n ) = 15

The P value for the process is calculated as :

Total defects / ( number of sample * sample size )

= 10 / ( 15 * 10 ) = 10 / 150 = 0.067

standard deviation ( σ ) = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n } } = \sqrt{\frac{0.067(1-0.067)}{15} }[/tex]  =  0.065

next we determine the limits ( i.e. upper and lower )

UCL = p + zSp = 0.067 + 1.96(0.065 ) = 0.194

LCL = p - zSp = 0.067 - 1.96(0.065) = -0.060 ≈ 0 ( because LCL ≠ negative)

attached below is the required p-chart

b) The process is out of control because two ( 2 ) values from the defect rate table are out of the control limits at 95% as seen in the p-chart in question ( A )

The work of a student to solve a set of equations is shown:

Equation A: y = 15 − 2z
Equation B: 2y = 3 − 4z


Step 1: −2(y) = −2(15 − 2z) [Equation A is multiplied by −2.]
2y = 3 − 4z [Equation B]
Step 2: −2y = 15 − 2z [Equation A in Step 1 is simplified.]
2y = 3 − 4z [Equation B]
Step 3: 0 = 18 − 6z [Equations in Step 2 are added.]
Step 4: 6z = 18
Step 5: z = 3

It takes 12 people 15 hours to complete and certain job.how many hours would it take 18 people, working at the same rate to complete 2/5 of the same job?

Answers

Answer:

2 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Required man hours to complete the full job = 12 *15

                                                                           =180 Man hours

Required man hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 180/5

                                                                                      = 36 Man hours

if 18 peoples are working,

required hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 36 /18

                                                                            = 2 hours

6.(a) A laptop was bought at Canadian $ 770. If the tax of 20% and 13% VAT should be paid, find the least selling price of it in Nepali rupee that prevents the shopkeeper from loss?​

Answers

The LEAST selling price of the laptop should be ;

$1024.1 in other to avoid loss.

Price of laptop = $770

Tax = 20%

VAT = 13%

TO avoid loss ;

both the VAT percentage and TAX must be added to the price of the laptop:

Total percentage = VAT + TAX = (20 + 13) = 33%

THEREFORE, Least selling price should be :

Price of laptop * (1 + 33%)

770 * 1.33

Answers

Given:

The function is:

[tex]g(x)=f(x+2)-3[/tex]

To find:

The statement that best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x).

Solution:

The transformation is defined as

[tex]g(x)=f(x+a)+b[/tex]                .... (i)

Where, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

We have,

[tex]g(x)=f(x+2)-3[/tex]               ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]a=2[/tex]

[tex]b=-3[/tex]

Therefore, the graph of g(x) is shifted 2 units left and 3 units down.

Hence, the correct option is C.

You need to design a rectangle with a perimeter of 14.2 cm. The length must be 2.4 cm. What is the width of the
rectangle? (You might want to draw a picture.)

a) Let w = the width of the rectangle. Write the equation you would use to solve this problem.


b) Now solve your equation
* cm.
The width of the rectangle must be. Cm

Answers

Part (a)

Answer: 2(2.4+w) = 14.2

--------------

Explanation:

L = 2.4 = length

W = unknown width

The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)

We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2

========================================================

Part (b)

Answer:   w = 4.7

--------------

Explanation:

We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)

2(2.4+w) = 14.2

2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2

4.8+2w = 14.2

2w = 14.2-4.8

2w = 9.4

w = 9.4/2

w = 4.7

The width must be 4.7 cm.

SAT scores are normally distributed with a mean of 1,500 and a standard deviation of 300. An administrator at a college is interested in estimating the average SAT score of first-year students. If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 88% confidence interval to 15 points, how many students should the administrator sample? Make sure to give a whole number answer.

Answers

Answer:

The administrator should sample 968 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.88}{2} = 0.06[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.06 = 0.94[/tex], so Z = 1.555.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation of 300.

This means that [tex]n = 300[/tex]

If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 88% confidence interval to 15 points, how many students should the administrator sample?

This is n for which M = 15. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]15 = 1.555\frac{300}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]15\sqrt{n} = 300*1.555[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 15

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 20*1.555[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (20*1.555)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 967.2[/tex]

Rounding up:

The administrator should sample 968 students.
