If f(x) = 3x2 + 1 and g(x) = 1 – x, what is the value of (f – g)(2)?

Amass weighing 16 pounds stretches a spring 8/3 feet. the mass is initially released from rest from a point 2 feet below the equilibrium position, and the subsequent motion takes place in a medium that offers a damping force that is numerically equal to 1/2 the instantaneous velocity. find the equation of motion if the mass is driven by an external force equal to f(t)=cos(2t).

Astudent found the solution below for the given inequality. |x-9|< -4 x-9> 4 and x-9< -4 x> 13 and x< 5 which of the following explains whether the student is correct? -the student is completely correct because the student correctly wrote and solved the compound inequality. -the student is partially correct because only one part of the compound inequality is written correctly. -the student is partially correct because the student should have written the statements using “or” instead of “and.” -the student is completely incorrect because there is no solution to this inequality.

Aresearch study is studying the effects of a new drug for osteoporosis alzheimer's disease (ad) for women above the age of 65 years. a group of individuals with osteoporosis is randomized into two groups. one group is treated conventionally, and the second group is treated with the new medication. assessments are made at 3, 6, 12, 36, and 48 months. the conventionally treated group is assessed for ad using a serum blood test, and the treatment group is assessed for ad using a pet radiotracer that binds to beta-amyloid plaques. in comparing these 2 trial arms, the authors of the study may encounter which type of bias? a. selection bias on the risk of developing b. measurement bias c. confounding bias d. recall bias e. lead-time bias
