Data set B has higher frequencies around the center value (20) compared to Data set A, resulting in equal means for both data sets.

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{250}{500} \times 100 = 50\% \).

Calculate the percentages: Candidate A received \( \frac{600}{1000} = 0.6 \), or 60%. Candidate B received \( \frac{400}{1000} = 0.4 \), or 40%. If 10,000 people vote, Candidate A is expected to receive \( 0.6 \times 10000 = 6000 \) votes, and Candidate B \( 0.4 \times 10000 = 4000 \) votes. The difference is \( 6000 - 4000 = 2000 \) votes.

Since the function decreases by 45%, it retains 55% of its value at each step. Thus, the multiplier for the decay is 0.55. Therefore, the correct equation is \( q(x) = 14(0.55)^x \).

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{4}(x - 8)^2 + 6 \) occurs at \( (8, 6) \). This represents the minimum height of the drone. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 8 \) and \( k = 6 \), the minimum height is 6 meters above the ground.

The decay factor is 0.75 per half-year, which means it decays by 25% every six months. Over a year, this represents a 25% drop, so \(q = 25\).

To find \( p \), use the equation: \( 39 = \frac{p}{100} \times 65 \Rightarrow p = \frac{39 \times 100}{65} = 60 \). Then, calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 39 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 39 = 23.4 \).

We use the Pythagorean theorem: \( c^2 = 16^2 + 30^2 = 256 + 900 = 1156 \). Therefore, \( c = \sqrt{1156} = 34 \). The hypotenuse can be written as \( 2\sqrt{289} \), so \( d = 289 \).

Substitute \( t = 30 \) into the equation: \( 6m + 2(30) = 180 \Rightarrow 6m + 60 = 180 \Rightarrow 6m = 120 \Rightarrow m = 20 \).

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{8 \pm \sqrt{64 - 28}}{2} = 4 \pm \sqrt{9}\). So, the solution can be written as \(4 + \sqrt{9}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 9.

After testing the answer choices, only \( (1, 0) \) satisfies both equations.

From \(\frac{x}{y} = 8\), we know \(x = 8y\). Substitute into \(\frac{56x}{my} = 8\) to get \(\frac{56(8y)}{my} = 8\). Simplify to \(\frac{448y}{my} = 8\), cancel \(y\) and solve to find \(m = 56\).

Using \( P = 40,000 \) and \( C = 5,000 \), set up the equation \( 40,000 = 5,000(2)^{5r} \). Dividing both sides by 5,000 gives \( 8 = (2)^{5r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides yields \( 3 = 5r \). Therefore, \( r = \frac{3}{5} \).

In the function j(x) = -0.5x + 10, the y-intercept (where x = 0) represents the initial amount of water the runner had before starting the marathon. When x = 0, j(0) = 10, indicating that the runner started with 10 liters of water.

Since the triangles are similar, corresponding angles have the same trigonometric ratios. Thus, \( \sin(D) = \sin(A) = \frac{120}{125} \).

Expanding the right side results in \( 10a - 3 \), which is identical to the left side. Therefore, the equation holds for all values of a, implying infinitely many solutions.

Rearrange and substitute to find that \( y = 10 \).

With \( h(4) = 810 \), substitute into \( h(x) = 10 \cdot c^x \): \( 10 \cdot c^4 = 810 \Rightarrow c^4 = 81 \Rightarrow c = 3 \). Now find \( h(-1) \): \( h(-1) = 10 \cdot 3^{-1} = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{3} = \frac{10}{3} \).

Rewrite \(f(x)\) in vertex form as \(2(x + 2)^2 - 2\). The minimum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = -2\), so \(g(x) = f(x + 1)\) shifts this to \(x = -3\).

Rewrite both equations in slope-intercept form. To have no solution, the slopes must be equal but the y-intercepts must differ. Solving, we find m = -6.

Factor out the greatest common factor, \(4x\), from the expression: \(4x(x^2 + 8x + 24)\). Then factor \(x^2 + 8x + 24\) as \((x + 4)(x + 6)\). The smallest possible value of \(b\) is 4.

To find \( a \), set \( g(x) = 0 \) and solve: \( -2x + 10 = 0 Rightarrow x = 5 \), so \( a = 5 \). For the y-intercept \( b \), set \( x = 0 \): \( g(0) = 10 \). Therefore, \( a + b = 5 + 10 = 15 \).

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{120}{400} \times 100 = 30\% \).

For the system to have no solution, the slopes must be equal. Converting both equations to slope-intercept form reveals that k must equal -14.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(q x - 64) + 20 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)q^2 < 16[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]q[/latex] is 4.

Dividing the equation by 16, completing the square, and simplifying gives n = 8.

In the equation 3𝑠 + 50𝑡 = 8,000, the coefficient 3 corresponds to the trail, meaning 𝑠 represents the total number of streetlights per kilometer along the trail.

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 180 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 180 to get \(P = \frac{w}{90}\).

Start with the slope \( -\frac{5}{6} \) and point \( (-6, 4) \). Using the point-slope formula, the equation is \( y = -\frac{5}{6}x + 4 \).

Solving for \( y \) using substitution or elimination, we find that \( y = 30 \).

The two equations are not multiples of each other, but after simplifying, they end up being parallel lines. The slopes are the same but the y-intercepts are different, which means the lines never intersect.

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{16}(x - 5)^2 + 2 \) occurs at \( (5, 2) \). This represents the minimum height of the roller coaster car. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 5 \) and \( k = 2 \), the minimum height is 2 feet above the ground.

Set up the equation \( 24,000 = 1,500(2)^{12r} \). Divide both sides by 1,500 to obtain \( 16 = (2)^{12r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides yields \( 4 = 12r \). Therefore, \( r = \frac{1}{3} \).

Both sides simplify to \( 8z + 4 \), making the equation true for all values of z. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{\text{Part}}{\text{Whole}} \times 100 \). Here, \( \frac{50}{200} \times 100 = 25\% \).

Since the side lengths of square P are 20 times the side lengths of square Q, the area of square P is \( 20^2 = 400 \) times the area of square Q. Therefore, \( k = 400 \).

Since \(\frac{r}{s} = 6\), we get \(r = 6s\). Substitute into \(\frac{48r}{ks} = 6\) to obtain \(\frac{48(6s)}{ks} = 6\). Simplify to \(\frac{288s}{ks} = 6\), cancel \(s\) and solve for \(k = 48\).

For a quadratic in the form \( y = ax^2 + bx + c \), the minimum or maximum value of \( y \) occurs at \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \). Here, \( a = 1 \) and \( b = -10 \), so \( x = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \).

Expanding the equation, we obtain \( 2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 4x^2 - 24x \). Rearranging terms, we get \( -2x^2 + 27x - 9 = 0 \). Using the quadratic formula, the sum of the solutions is given by \( -b/a \), where \( a = -2 \) and \( b = 27 \), which yields \( 27/2 \).

Since \(g(x) = f(x+3) = 3(6)^{x+3} = 3 \cdot 216 \cdot (6)^x = 648(6)^x\), the correct answer is g(x) = 648(6)^x.

To find \( p \): \( 45 = \frac{p}{100} \times 90 \implies p = \frac{45 \times 100}{90} = 50 \). Calculate \( 50 \% \) of \( 45 \): \( \frac{50}{100} \times 45 = 22.5 \).

We use the Pythagorean theorem: \( c^2 = 9^2 + 12^2 = 81 + 144 = 225 \). Therefore, \( c = \sqrt{225} = 15 \). The hypotenuse can be written as \( 3\sqrt{25} \), so \( d = 25 \).

Isolate \(10a + 3b\) by multiplying both sides by \((10a + 3b)\), resulting in \(m = q(10a + 3b)\). Dividing by \(q\) gives \(10a + 3b = \frac{m}{q}\).

First, find the measure of angle Q in radians: \( \frac{5\pi}{6} + \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{14\pi}{12} = \frac{7\pi}{6} \). Then, convert to degrees by multiplying by \( \frac{180}{\pi} \): \( \frac{7\pi}{6} \cdot \frac{180}{\pi} = 210 \) degrees.
