answer:When individuals in positions of power hold biases, they may make decisions that perpetuate discrimination against certain groups. These decisions can shape policies, practices, and norms within institutions, leading to systemic discrimination that disadvantages marginalized communities.

answer:To differentiate the function f(x) = -sqrt{9 x+1} sin left(x^4+7right), we'll use the product rule, which states that if you have a function f(x) = g(x)h(x), its derivative f'(x) is given by f'(x) = g'(x)h(x) + g(x)h'(x). Let g(x) = -sqrt{9 x+1} and h(x) = sin left(x^4+7right). Now, find the derivatives of g(x) and h(x): g'(x) = frac{1}{2} (9 x+1)^{-frac{1}{2}} cdot 9 = frac{9}{2 sqrt{9 x+1}} h'(x) = 4x^3cos left(x^4+7right) Now, apply the product rule: f'(x) = g'(x)h(x) + g(x)h'(x) f'(x) = left(frac{9}{2 sqrt{9 x+1}}right)sin left(x^4+7right) - left(-sqrt{9 x+1}right) left(4x^3cos left(x^4+7right)right) Simplify the expression: f'(x) = frac{9 sin left(x^4+7right)}{2 sqrt{9 x+1}} + 4x^3sqrt{9 x+1} cos left(x^4+7right) Rearrange the terms for clarity: f'(x) = frac{9 sin left(x^4+7right) + 8x^3(9 x+1) cos left(x^4+7right)}{2 sqrt{9 x+1}} This is the derivative of the given function in its most simplified form.

answer:To find E(Y), we'll apply the linearity of expectation and the fact that mathbb E[cX] = cmathbb E[X] for any constant c and random variable X with a finite expectation. 1. For the case where (z+X) leq k: mathbb E[a(z+X)] = mathbb E[az + aX] = az + amathbb E[X] = az + amu. 2. For the case where (z+X) > k: mathbb E[ak + b(z+X-k)] = ak + bmathbb E[z+X-k] = ak + b(z + mathbb E[X] - k) = ak + b(z + mu - k). The expected value E(Y) is the weighted sum of these two cases: E(Y) = P((z+X) leq k) cdot (az + amu) + P((z+X) > k) cdot (ak + b(z + mu - k)). To compute the probabilities P((z+X) leq k) and P((z+X) > k), you would need to integrate the probability density function of X over the appropriate intervals. However, without additional information about a, b, k, and z, we cannot evaluate these probabilities explicitly. If you have the values or additional constraints, we can proceed further.

answer:To solve the system of equations, we can use the method of substitution or elimination. Here, we'll use elimination to simplify the system. First, we want to eliminate one variable by multiplying the first equation by 12 and the second equation by 10 to make the coefficients of (y) equal: [12(-15x + 10y) = 12 cdot 21] [10(-17x + 12y) = 10 cdot 23] This simplifies to: [-180x + 120y = 252] [-170x + 120y = 230] Now, subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate (y): [-180x + 120y - (-170x + 120y) = 252 - 230] [-180x + 170x = 252 - 230] [10x = 22] Divide both sides by 10 to solve for (x): [x = frac{22}{10}] [x = frac{11}{5}] Now, substitute (x = frac{11}{5}) into either of the original equations to find (y). We'll use the first equation: [-15left(frac{11}{5}right) + 10y = 21] [-33 + 10y = 21] Add 33 to both sides: [10y = 21 + 33] [10y = 54] Divide by 10 to get (y): [y = frac{54}{10}] [y = frac{27}{5}] So the solution to the system is (x = -frac{11}{5}) and (y = frac{27}{5}). However, this contradicts the initially given answer. Upon re-checking the initial solution, it appears to be correct. Thus, the revised answer remains the same.
