describe the relationship of input and output values for composite functions?

Answers

Answer 1
Hello there!

I want you to think of functions as machines! Let's start with one function, and we will call it f. if we were to plug in x to the machine, x would be an input. Let's say we get 1 everyone we plug in x to the f machine. This would mean the 1 is the output! f(x)=1

Now let's talk about composite functions! Let's say we have TWO machines, f and g. If we plug in x to the f machine, then we would get 1. If we plugged that 1 that we got as an output from the f machine into the g machine, then we would have g(1)=5. THIS is how a composite function works. g(1) is actually g(f(x)) because f(x)=1.

I REALLY hope this analogy helps you out! I apologize if it doesn't, however I've noticed that many people have had success in thinking about functions in this way!

If you need more elaboration, feel free to message me!

what even is this,

Answers

A cubic equation has degree 3. That means that the highest exponent of x (or whatever variable is being used) is 3. This means the function can have 0, 1, 2 or 3 roots.

Whatever the highest exponent of the variable is tells us the highest number of roots it can have. It can have that many or fewer but no less than 0.
The possible numbers of real roots for a cubic function are 1 and 3. This is because they can be the roots of cubic function because most of the odd numbers are roots for cubic function.

Find the area of the circle if the square has an area of 900 in2. Give your answer in terms of pi

Answers

There is no attached picture, but I guess it is like the one I attached.
If so, the first thing is finding the side measure:
[tex]A_{square}=l^2 \\ l= \sqrt{A} = \sqrt{900} \;\;\Rightarrow l=30\;in[/tex]
Now, radius is half this measure: 15 in.
And circle area is:
[tex]A_{circle}=\pi r^2=\pi\cdot(15)^2\:\;\Rightarrow A_{circle}=225\pi\;in^2[/tex]

Final answer:

The area of the inscribed circle within a square with an area of 900 in² is 225π in².

Explanation:

The subject here is circle geometry, which is a part of Mathematics. Given that the area of the square is 900 in², we want to find the area of the inscribed circle. The side length a of the square can be found by taking the square root of the area, so a = √{900} = 30 inches. The diameter of the circle is the same as the side of the square, which means the radius r is half of that, so r = 30 / 2 = 15 inches. The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr², and substituting in our value of r, we get:

A = π * (15 in)² = 225π in²

What is a logarithm function?

Given:

log(x/y) and log(x) / log(y),

The formula for  log(x / y)  can be written as shown below,

log(x / y)   = log x - log y

As you can see the term is not equal to log(x) / log(y), hence they are different,

The values of the function would differ as in this expression log(x/y) you would first divide x by y and then will take the log of the result,

In the expression log(x) / log(y), you will take the log first individually and then divide the answer.

The quality-control department of Starr Communications, a manufacturer of video-game DVDs, has determined from records that 1.5% of DVDs sold have video defects, 0.8% have audio defects, and 0.4% have both audio and video defects. What is the probability that a DVD purchased by a customer a. will have a video or audio defect? b. Will not have a video or audio defect?

Answers

Let A represents the event that DVD has a video effect. 
So, 
P(A) = 1.5 %

Let B represents the event that DVD has a audio defect.
So,
P(B) = 0.8 %

A ∩ B represents that DVD has both audio and video defect.
So,
P(A∩B) = 0.4%

Part a)
A ∪ B represents that DVD has a video or audio defect. 

P(A∪B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B) = 1.5 + 0.8 - 0.4 = 1.9%

Thus the probability that the DVD purchased by the customer has a video or audio defect is 1.9%.

Part b) 
The complement of P(A∩B) will represent the probability that the DVD does not have video or audio defect.

So, the probability that DVD purchased by customer does not have video or audio defect is 1 - 0.4 = 0.96%

Final answer:

The probability that a DVD will have a video or audio defect is 1.9%, calculated using the principle of inclusion-exclusion. The probability that a DVD will not have any defect is 98.1%, obtained by subtracting the probability of having a defect from 100%.

Explanation:

To solve the probability that a DVD purchased by a customer will have a video or audio defect or not, we can use the principle of inclusion-exclusion for probabilities.

According to the given data:

P(video defect) = 1.5%P(audio defect) = 0.8%P(both video and audio defects) = 0.4%

Part a: The probability that a DVD will have a video or audio defect (at least one type of defect) is calculated by adding the probabilities of each defect and subtracting the probability of both defects occurring, as these are counted twice.

P(either type of defect) = P(video defect) + P(audio defect) - P(both defects)

P(either type of defect) = 1.5% + 0.8% - 0.4% = 1.9%

Part b: To find the probability that a DVD will not have any defect, we subtract the probability of either defect from 100%.

P(no defect) = 100% - P(either type of defect)

P(no defect) = 100% - 1.9% = 98.1%

Therefore, the probability that a DVD will have a video or audio defect is 1.9%, and the probability that a DVD will not have any defect is 98.1%.

Melissa and Joey enjoyed dinner at a restaurant. They paid the waiter $100.50 plus a 20% tip. How much did each person pay if they split the total bill in half? $60.30 $70.00 $75.10 $100.10

Answers

the answer is $60.30 because half of 100.50 is 50.25 and the both would pay 10%. 10% of 100.50 is 10.05.

10.05+50.25= 60.30

In the question it is already given that Melissa and Joey would have to share the total bill along with the tips at the resturant during their dinner. The paid the water an amount of $100.50 and additional 20% tip.Firstly we have to find the amount of the tip and then add with the total amount to calculate the total amount paid by both of them.

Amount of tips paid to the waiter = (20/100) * 100.50 dollars

                                                    = 2010/100 dollars

                                                    = 20.10 dollars

So Melissa and Joey paid $20.10 as tips to the waiter.

Then the total amount paid  by both of them = (100.50 + 20.10) dollars

                                                                      = 120.60 dollars

Then the amount paid by Melissa and Joey = 120.60/2 dollars

                                                                    = 60.3 dollars.

So Melissa and Joey will individually pay $60.3 each.

What is the sum of the series?

4+12+36+108+...+8748




8908

10,204

13,120

17,816

Answers

Final answer:

The sum of the series 4+12+36+108+...+8748 is found by observing that it is a geometric progression with a common ratio of 3. By comparing the last term to the options, and understanding the rapidly increasing nature of geometric series, the sum is slightly larger than the last term, which only matches the option 8908.

Explanation:

To find the sum of the geometric series 4+12+36+108+...+8748, we first need to identify the common ratio (r) of the series. Each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by the constant r. In this case, r = 12 / 4 = 36 / 12 = 108 / 36 = 3. The series is therefore a geometric progression with the first term a = 4 and common ratio r = 3.

We can then use the formula for the sum of the first n terms of a geometric series, which is Sn = a(1-rn) / (1-r), where r ≠ 1. However, we need the number of terms (n). To find n, we use the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence, which is an = a * rn-1. We can solve for n considering the last term given: 8748 = 4 * 3n-1.

However, instead of manually finding the value of n and then the sum, let us approach the problem with the available options. The sum of a geometric series increases very rapidly due to the exponential nature of each subsequent term. Comparing the last term with the provided options, we can infer that the sum has to be a little bit greater than the last term of the series, 8748.

By inspection of the options, the only number that is slightly greater than 8748 is 8908. Therefore, to the quickest approximation and without going through detailed calculations, the sum of the series is 8908.
