Answer:

We can use trigonometry to solve this problem. The horizontal distance covered by each rider can be found by multiplying the distance they rode by the cosine of the angle of incline. The difference between the two distances will be the amount by which Jake covered less distance than Rafael.

For Jake:

Horizontal distance = distance * cos(angle of incline)

Horizontal distance = 100 ft * cos(7.9°)

Horizontal distance = 100 ft * 0.9925

Horizontal distance = 99.25 ft

For Rafael:

Horizontal distance = distance * cos(angle of incline)

Horizontal distance = 100 ft * cos(18.3°)

Horizontal distance = 100 ft * 0.9475

Horizontal distance = 94.75 ft

Difference in horizontal distance = 99.25 ft - 94.75 ft

Difference in horizontal distance = 4.5 ft

Therefore, Jake covered 4.5 ft more horizontal distance than Rafael. The closest option is A. 4.1 ft, but that is not the exact answer.

The number of people who ate at neither McDonald's or Wendy's is given as follows:

D) 30.

Before obtaining the number of people who ate at neither place, we must obtain the number of people who ate at least one place, as follows:

At least one = McDonald's + Wendy's - (McDonald's and Wendy's).

Replacing the values given in this problem, we have that:

At least one = 55 + 35 - 20

At least one = 70.

Considering that 100 students were surveyed, the number of students who ate at neither place is given as follows:

Neither = 100 - At least one

Neither = 100 - 70

Neither = 30 students.

False. Logistic regression is used when the dependent variable is binary or categorical (i.e., a nominal or ordinal variable). It is not appropriate for continuous dependent variables.

Logistic regression models the probability of an event occurring, where the event is represented by a binary variable (such as yes/no, success/failure, etc.). The output of the logistic regression model is the probability of the event occurring given the values of the independent variables. This probability can take any value between 0 and 1.

The logistic regression model assumes that the log odds of the event occurring (i.e., the logarithm of the probability of the event divided by the probability of its complement) can be modeled as a linear function of the independent variables. The coefficients of this linear function are estimated using maximum likelihood estimation.

Overall, logistic regression is a commonly used technique in statistics and data analysis for modeling the probability of a binary or categorical outcome. It is used in various fields, such as healthcare, marketing, and social sciences.

The graph in this problem is not a function, as it contains vertically aligned points.

The domain and the range are given as follows:

A graph represents a function if it has no vertically aligned points, that is, each value of x is mapped to only one value of y. Vertically aligned points mean that a value of x is mapped to multiple values of y, that is, a single input is mapped to multiple outputs which disqualify the relation as a function.

When we trace a vertical line through the circle, it would cross the circle at two points, meaning that the graph contains vertically aligned points, and thus, is not a function.

A. This data fits a linear model because the growth rate is constant.

The justification for this is that a linear model is suitable when the growth rate of the data remains constant, suggesting that the relations between the independent and dependent quantities are relative and does not differ through time or with modifications in the input figures.

It would cause a straight-line graph to appear, where the dependent elements change linearly comparable to alterations in the independent variable.

Answer:

To find the population of Brazil in 10 more years, we can use the formula for exponential growth:

A = P(1 + r)^t

where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the annual growth rate as a decimal, and t is the number of years.

We know that the current population of Brazil is 205,822,685, and the annual growth rate is 0.9%. We want to find the population in 10 more years, so t = 10. Plugging in these values, we get:

A = 205,822,685(1 + 0.009)^10

Simplifying this expression, we get:

A = 205,822,685(1.009)^10

A = 237,832,190.44

Rounding this to the nearest whole number, we get:

A = 237,832,190

Therefore, the population of Brazil in 10 more years will be approximately 237,832,190.

- To purchase a new car in 4 years and expect the car to cost ​$76,000, you need to calculate how much money you need to deposit each month in a bank account that offers a guaranteed APR of 4.5%.

- You can use a formula called PMT to calculate the monthly deposit amount. PMT stands for payment and it is the amount of money you need to pay or deposit each period to achieve a certain future value.

- The formula for PMT is: PMT = ( FV * r) / [ ( (1+r)^n) - 1] where FV is the future value, r is the interest rate per period, and n is the number of periods.

- In your case, FV is $76,000, r is 0.045/12 (because the interest rate is 4.5% per year and there are 12 months in a year), and n is 4*12 (because you want to save for 4 years and there are 12 months in a year).

- Plugging these values into the formula, you get: PMT = (76000 * 0.00375) / [ ( (1+0.00375)^48) - 1] = 1449.72

- This means you should deposit $1449.72 each month to end up with $76,000 in 4 years.

Given that f(x) = √x is the square root function.

We know that vertical translation of a function is a transformation that shifts the graph of the function up or down without changing its shape.

Option (A) K(x)=√√√-5+x is a vertical translation of f(x) because it shifts the graph of f(x) to the right by 5 and then applies three square root operations. so, it is not a vertical translation that shifts the graph up or down.

Option (B) n(x) = -7+ √x is a vertical translation of f(x) due to it shifts the graph of f(x) down by 7 units.

Option (C) g(x)=√x -4 is a vertical translation of f(x) since it shifts the graph of f(x) down by 4 units.

Option (D) h(x)=3+√x is a vertical translation of f(x) since it shifts the graph of f(x) up by 3 units.

Option (E)  m(x)=√5x is not a vertical translation of f(x) since it involves multiplying the input of f(x) by a constant factor of 5.
