• Graph II shows Item II which represents the second function.
Let's determine the increasing and decreasing function.
For Item I, we can see that as the values of x increase, the values of y also increase. Since one variable increases as the other increases, the function in item I is increasing.
For the graph which shows item II, as the values of x increase, the values of y decrease, Since one variable decreases as the other variable decreases, the function in item I is decreasing.
Therefore, the function in item I is increasing, and the function in item II is decreasing.
ANSWER:
A. The function in item I is increasing, and the function in item II is decreasing.

Function f is defined by f(x) = 2x – 7 and g is defined by g(x) = 5*
Answers
Answer
f(3) = -1, f(2) = -3, f(1) = -5, f(0) = -7, f(-1) = -9
g(3) = 125, g(2) = 25, g(1) = 5, g(0) = 1, g(-1) = 0.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following functions
f(x) =2x - 7
g(x) = 5^x
find f(3), f(2), f(1), f(0), and f(-1)
for the first function
f(x) = 2x - 7
f(3) means substitute x = 3 into the function
f(3) = 2(3) - 7
f(3) = 6 - 7
f(3) =-1
f(2), let x = 2
f(2) = 2(2) - 7
f(2) = 4 - 7
f(2) =-3
f(1) = 2(1) - 7
f(1) = 2 - 7
f(1) =-5
f(0) = 2(0) - 7
f(0) =0 - 7
f(0) = -7
f(-1) = 2(-1) - 7
f(-1) = -2 - 7
f(-1) = -9
g(x) = 5^x
find g(3), g(2), g(1), g(0), and g(-1)
g(3), substitute x = 3
g(3) = 5^3
g(3) = 5 x 5 x 5
g(3) = 125
g(2) = 5^2
g(2) = 5 x 5
g(2) = 25
g(1) = 5^1
g(1) = 5
g(0) = 5^0
any number raised to the power of zero = 1
g(0) = 1
g(-1) = 5^-1
g(-1) = 1/5
g(-1) = 0.2

1) To find the relative maxima of a function, we need to perform the first derivative test. It tells us whether the function has a local maximum, minimum r neither.

An outdoor equipment store surveyed 300 customers about their favorite outdoor activities. The circle graph below shows that 135 customers like fishing best, 75 customers like camping best, and 90 customers like hiking best.
Answers
it is given that,
total customer surveyed is 300 customers
also, it is given that,
135 customers like fishing best, 75 customers like camping best, and 90 customers like hiking best.
the total 300 customers representing the whole circle and circle has a complete angle of 360 degrees
so, 300 customers = 360 degrees,
1 customer = 360/300
= 6/5 degrees,
so, for fishing
135 customer = 135 x 6/5 degrees
= 27 x 6
= 162 degrees,
so, for camping
75 x 6/5 = 90 degrees,
for hiking
90 x 6/5 = 108 degrees,

State all integer values of X in the interval that satisfy the following inequality.

We solve the inequality
Adding 5:
-5x - 5 +5 < 8 +5

-5x < 13
We need to divide by -5, but we must be careful to flip the inequality sign. It must be done when multiplying or dividing by negative values
Dividing by -5 and flipping the sign:
x > -13 / 5
Or, equivalently:
x > -2.6
I am here, I'm correcting the answer. the interval was [-4,2] I misread the question. do you read me now?
Any number greater than -2.6 will solve the inequality, but we must use only those integers in the interval [-4,2]

The integers that are greater than -2.6 are
-2, -1, 0, 1, 2

Answers
To find the answer, we need to prove for every sequence as:
Answer A.
If n=1 then:
A(1) = 16(1-1) = 16*0 = 0
Since 0 is not in the sequence so, this is not the answer
Answer B.
If n=1 then:
A(1) = 15 + 16*1 = 31
Since 31 is not the first number of the sequence, this is not the answer
Answer D.
If n=1 then:
16n = 16*1 = 16
Since 16 is not in the sequence so, this is not the answer
Answer C.
If n = 1 then:
A(1) = 15 + 16(1-1) = 15
A(2) = 15 + 16(2-1) = 31
A(3) = 15 + 16(3-1) = 47
A(4) = 15 + 16(4-1) = 63

Answers
We have to find the 80% confidence interval for a population proportion.
The sample size is n = 362 and the number of successes is X = 54.
Then, the sample proportion is p = 0.149171.
[tex]p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{54}{362}\approx0.149171[/tex]The standard error of the proportion is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sigma_s=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} \\ \sigma_s=\sqrt{\frac{0.149171*0.850829}{362}} \\ \sigma_s=\sqrt{0.000351} \\ \sigma_s=0.018724 \end{gathered}[/tex]The critical z-value for a 80% confidence interval is z = 1.281552.
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

1. How much less is the area of a rectangular field 60 by 20
meters than that of a square field with the same perimeter?
Answers
The area of the rectangular field is 400m² less than the area of the square field.
How to find the area of a rectangle and square?A rectangle is a quadrilateral that has opposite sides equal to each other. Opposite side are also parallel to each other.
A square is a quadrilateral that has all sides equal to each other.
Therefore,
area of the rectangular field = lw
where
l = lengthw = widthTherefore,
area of the rectangular field = 60 × 20
area of the rectangular field = 1200 m²
The square field have the same perimeter with the rectangular field.
Hence,
perimeter of the rectangular field = 2(60 + 20)
perimeter of the rectangular field = 2(80)
perimeter of the rectangular field = 160 meters
Therefore,
perimeter of the square field = 4l
160 = 4l
l = 160 / 4
l = 40
Hence,
area of the square field = 40²
area of the square field = 1600 m²
Difference in area = 1600 - 1200
Difference in area = 400 m²
Therefore, the area of the square field is 400 metre square greater than the rectangular field.

The point of the problem is to remember the cosine relation. It says, in this case, that
[tex]\cos (?)=\frac{\text{adjacent side}}{Hypotenuse}\Rightarrow\begin{cases}\text{adjacent side}=6 \\ \text{Hypotenuse}=13\end{cases}\Rightarrow\cos (?)=\frac{6}{13}[/tex]Converting the last equation by the inverse function, we get
[tex]?=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{6}{13})\approx62.5[/tex]For the first decimal place (5) equals 5, and by the rounding rule to the nearest degree, we get 63. The answer is A.
the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 5 ft long. the shorter leg is 1 ft shorter than the longer leg. find the side lengths of the triangle
Answers
the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle is h = 5 ft
it is given that
the shorter leg is 1 ft shorter than the longer leg.
let the shorter leg is a and longer leg is b
the
b - a = 1
b = 1 + a
in the traingle using Pythagoras theorem,
[tex]a^2+b^2=h^2[/tex]put he values,
[tex]a^2+(1+a)^2=5^2[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} a^2+1+a^2+2a=25 \\ 2a^2+2a-24=0 \\ a^2+a-12=0 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} a^2+4a-3a-12=0_{} \\ a(a+4)-3(a+4)=0 \\ (a+4)(a-3)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]a + 4 = 0
a = - 4
and
a - 3 = 0
a = 3
so, the longer leg is b = a + 1 = 3 + 1 = 4
thus, the answer is
shorter leg = 3 ft
longer length = 4 ft
hypotenuse = 5 ft
