1. a given binomial distribution has a mean of 153.1 and a standard deviation of 18.2. would a value of 187 be considered usual or unusual? why? a. unusual, because the result is less than the maximum usual value. b. usual, because the result is less than the minimum usual value. c. unusual, because the result is greater than the maximum usual value. d. usual, because the result is between the minimum and maximum usual values.

A. plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid and connect the points. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) 1/9 1/3 1 3 9 x -2 -1 0 1 2 g(x) -4 -2 0 2 4 b. which function could be described as exponential and which as linear? explain. c. if the functions continue with the same pattern, will the function values ever be equal? if so, give estimates for the value of x that will make the function values equals. if not, explain why the function values will never be equal.

After a dreary day of rain, the sun peeks through the clouds and a rainbow forms. you notice the rainbow is the shape of a parabola. the equation for this parabola is y = -x2 + 36. graph of a parabola opening down at the vertex 0 comma 36 crossing the x–axis at negative 6 comma 0 and 6 comma 0. in the distance, an airplane is taking off. as it ascends during take-off, it makes a slanted line that cuts through the rainbow at two points. create a table of at least four values for the function that includes two points of intersection between the airplane and the rainbow. analyze the two functions. answer the following reflection questions in complete sentences. what is the domain and range of the rainbow? explain what the domain and range represent. do all of the values make sense in this situation? why or why not? what are the x- and y-intercepts of the rainbow? explain what each intercept represents. is the linear function you created with your table positive or negative? explain. what are the solutions or solution to the system of equations created? explain what it or they represent. create your own piecewise function with at least two functions. explain, using complete sentences, the steps for graphing the function. graph the function by hand or using a graphing software of your choice (remember to submit the graph).
