The graph of the piecewise function f(x) is shown.

On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 2 connecting lines. The first line has a closed circle at (negative 2, negative 5) and goes up to a closed circle at (2, negative 1). The second line has a closed circle at (2, negative 1) and goes down to an open circle at (4, negative 2).

What is the range of f(x)?
{x | −2 ≤ x < 4}
{x | −2 < x ≤ 4}
{y | −5 < y < −1}
{y | −5 ≤ y ≤ −1}

In a study of the relationship between socio-economic class and unethical behavior, 129 university of california undergraduates at berkeley were asked to identify themselves as having low or high social-class by comparing themselves to others with the most (least) money, most (least) education, and most (least) respected jobs. they were also presented with a jar of individually wrapped candies and informed that the candies were for children in a nearby laboratory, but that they could take some if they wanted. after completing some unrelated tasks, participants reported the number of candies they had taken. it was found that those who were identiď¬ed as upper-class took more candy than others. in this study, identify: (a) the cases, (b) the variables and their types, (c) the main research question, (d) identify the population of interest and the sample in this study, and (e) comment on whether or not the results of the study can be generalized to the population, and if the ď¬ndings of the study can be used to establish causal relationships.

Consider the image of klmn for the translation (x, y) → (x – 2, y – 1). what is the ordered pair of l′?

Rachel is studying the population of a particular bird species in a national park. she observes every 10th bird of that species that she can find in the park. her conclusion is that the birds living in the park who belong to that species generally feed on insects. rachel's sample is . based on the sample she picked, rachel's generalization is
