-6.7

Answers

Answer 1

The z-score corresponding to an observation is -1.02

From the given data μ=335

σ=50

X=284

It is a way to compare the results from a test to a “normal” population.

If X is a random variable from a normal distribution with mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ), its Z-score may be calculated by subtracting mean from X and dividing the whole by standard deviation.

Z-score formula is X- μ/σ

Where, x = test value

μ is mean and

σ is SD (Standard Deviation)

For the average of a sample from a population ‘n’, the mean is μ and the standard deviation is σ.

X=284 now we have to find Z score

so from the formula the Z score corresponding to observation X=284 is we have

Z=X- μ/σ

=[tex]\frac{284-335}{50}[/tex]=-1.02

Therefore, the z-score is -1.02.

Answers

Answer: 1402

Step-by-step explanation:

Im assuming u mean [tex]6k^{4} +2k^{3} -6[/tex]

sub in the k value when k = -4

[tex]6(-4)^{4} +2(-4)^{3} -6[/tex]

1536−128−6=1402

First I’m not sure if it was supposed to be 6k4 or 6k^4 but I did it 6k^4
In order to solve for f(-4) we know what the value is for K

So in the formula f(k)=6k^4 +2k^3 -6 we would replace K with (-4)

f(-4)= 6(-4)^4+2(-4)^3-6

Then start solving the exponents first
(-4)^4=256
(-4)^3=-64

f(-4)= 6(256)+2(-64)-6
= 1536-128-6
=1408-6
f(-4)= 1402

The function that matches the graph is f(x) = (17/24)(x + 2)²(x + 6).

What is a graph?

A graph is a diametrical representation of any function between the dependent and independent variables.

The graph is easy to understand the behavior of the graph.

As per the given graph,

The function is symmetric at x = -2 so it will be an even degree function as (x + 2)².

The function is not symmetric about x = -6 so it will have an odd degree as (x + 6)¹.

The function will be f(x) = C(x + 2)²(x + 6).

The constant will be C = 17/(2² × 6) = 17/24

Hence "The function that matches is f(x) = (17/24)(x + 2)²(x + 6)".

Answers

The iterated integral by converting to polar coordinates [tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] is 7a^4/12.

In the given question, we have to evaluate the iterated integral by converting to polar coordinates.

The given integral is

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex]

Let polar coordinate.

x = rcosθ, y = rsinθ, x^2 + y^2 = r^2

So dxdy = rdrdθ

r from 0 to a and θ from π/2 to π

Now the integral is

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}\int_{0}^{a}7(r\cos\theta)^2(r\sin\theta)drd\theta[/tex]

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}\int_{0}^{a}7(r^2\cos^2\theta)(r\sin\theta)drd\theta[/tex]

Now integrating the first integral

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]7\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}\left[\frac{r^4}{4}\right]_{0}^{a}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta d\theta[/tex]

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]7\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}\left[\frac{a^4}{4}-\frac{0^4}{4}\right]\cos^2\theta\sin\theta d\theta[/tex]

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7a^4}{4}\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}\cos^2\theta\sin\theta d\theta[/tex]

Let cosθ = t

So -sinθ = dt/dθ

So sinθdθ = -dt

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]-\frac{7a^4}{4}\int_{\pi/2}^{\pi}t^2dt[/tex]

[tex]\int_{0}^{a}\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{0}7x^2ydxdy[/tex] = [tex]-\frac{7a^4}{4}\left[\frac{t^3}{3}\right]_{\pi/2}^{\pi}[/tex]

a 6 ft tall man walks at the rate of 5 ft/sec toward a street light that is 16 ft above the ground. a. at what rate is the length of his shadow changing when he is 10 ft from the base of the light? b. at what rate is the tip of his shadow moving?

Answers

(a) When he is 10 feet from the base of the light, the rate at which the length of his shadow changing is 7.5 ft/s

(b) When he is 10 feet from the base of the light, the rate at which the tip of his shadow changes is 2.5 ft/s.

We have, the height of man, CD = 6 feet

Height of light , AB = 16 feet

Rate of walk by man, dx/dt = 5 feet per second.

a) we have to calculate the rate at which the length of his shadow is moving when he is 10 feet from the base of the light.

let x feet be the distance between the light and man and y feet be the distance between the light and man's shadow(E) i.e BC = x ft. and BE = y ft.

By using ratio of similar triangles,

16/y = 6/(y - x)

On cross multiplication,

16(y - x) = 6y

16y - 15x = 6y

16y - 6y = 15x

10y = 15x

Dividing by 3 on both sides,

2y = 3x

On differentiating both sides with respect to t,

2(dy/dt) = 3(dx/dt)

dy/dt = (3/2)(dx/dt)

dy/dt = (3/2)(5)

dy/dt = 15/2

dy/dt = 7.5 ft/s

Therefore, the rate at which the length of his shadow is changing is 7.5 ft/s.

b) We have to calculate the rate at which the length of his shadow is changing when he is 10 feet from the base of the light.

Length of shadow, CE = y - x

Rate of change of shadow is calculated by differentiating length with respect to time.

d(CE)/dt = dy/dt - dx/dt

d(CE)/dt = 7.5 - 5

= 2.5 ft/s

Therefore, the rate at which the length of his shadow is changing is 2.5 ft/s.

Solve the following maximization problem graphically.

Answers

The solution to the maximization problem P(x, y) = 7x + 9y - 5 is 33.4

How to determine the solution to the maximization problem?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Objective function:  P(x, y) = 7x + 9y - 5

Subject to: x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

2x + 3y ≤ 12

3x + 2y ≤ 12

x + y ≥ 2

Next, we plot the graph of the constraints

The vertices of the feasible region are

(0, 2), (2, 0) and (2.4, 2.4)

Substitute (0, 2), (2, 0) and (2.4, 2.4) in P(x, y) = 7x + 9y - 5

So, we have

P(0, 2) = 7(0) + 9(2) - 5 = 13

P(2, 0) = 7(2) + 9(0) - 5 = 9

P(2.4, 2.4) = 7(2.4) + 9(2.4) - 5 = 33.4

A city has a 5% sales tax. A book costs $32.55 after tax. How much did it cost before tax?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

x=cost before tax

$32.55 = x + x * 5%  ==> solve for x

$32.55 = x + x * 5/100  

$32.55 = x + 5x/100

$32.55 = 100x/100 + 5x/100 ==> make common denominators

$32.55 = (100x+5x)/100

$32.55 = 105x/100  ==> simplify

100 * $32.55 = 100 * 105x/100  ==> multiply by 100 on both sides to remove

                                                         fractions

the distribution of salaries of teachers is approximately normal. which measure of central tendency would be the best measure to determine the location of the center of the distribution?

Answers

The best measure of central tendency to determine the center of the distribution of teacher salaries is the mean.

The mean is the average of all values in a set and is calculated by adding up all the values and dividing them by the number of values. This measure is particularly useful for data that follows a normal distribution, as teacher salaries are likely to do.

The mean is the most commonly used measure of central tendency and is a good indicator of the center of the data set. It is also relatively easy to calculate. So mean will be the measure of the central tendency to determine the center of the distribution of teacher salaries.

Answers

The 4th term of an AP is 6 if the um of the 8th and 9th term is -72, The 4th term of an AP is -18.

The sum of 8th and 9th term of an AP is given as -72.

We can use the formula for the sum of any n terms of an AP,

Sn = n/2[2a + (n-1)d]

Where,

a = first term

d = common difference

n = number of terms

Therefore,

-72 = 8/2[2a + (8-1)d]

-72 = 4[2a + 7d]

-18 = 2a + 7d

Subtracting 7d from both the sides,

-18 - 7d = 2a

Dividing both the sides by 2,

(-18 - 7d)/2 = a

a = -18/2 - (7d)/2

a = -9 - (7d)/2

Do callers who use the IRS help line early in the day have a shorter wait? Suppose a sample of 50 callers who placed their calls to the IRS in the first 30 minutes that the line is open during the day have a mean waiting time of 11 minutes before an IRS telephone assister answers. Based on data from past years, you can assume that the standard deviation of waiting times is 8 minutes. Using these sample results, can you conclude that the waiting time for calls placed during the first 30 minutes the IRS help line is open each day is significantly less that the overall mean waiting time of 13 minutes? Use alpha=0.05

Answers

P-value = 0.0384

As P-value < 0.05, reject the null hypothesis.

What is test statistic?

A statistic (a number obtained from the sample) used in statistical hypothesis testing is known as a test statistic. Usually, a hypothesis test is described in words.

A test statistic is a figure obtained from a statistical analysis. It explains how distant your observed data is from the null hypothesis, which states that there is no correlation between the variables or distinction between the sample groups.

The alternative and null hypotheses are listed below.

Lack of hypothesis H0: μ = 13

Ha: 13 Alternative Hypothesis

Statistical test, z = (xbar - mu)/(sigma/sqrt(n))

z = (11 - 13)/(8/sqrt(50))

z = -1.77

Region of Rejection

For α= 0.05, this is a left-tailed test.

Z has a critical value of -1.645.

Therefore, if z -1.645, reject H0 and accept the null hypothesis.

P-value Approach

P-value = 0.0384

As P-value < 0.05, reject the null hypothesis

from a square cadrboard sheet, a 5cm wide strip was cut away. the area of the remaining rectangle is 266 cm. find the original dimensions of the square cardboard sheet.

Answers

Answer: S=19cm

Step-by-step explanation:

area = s^2

s(s-5)=266

s^2-5s=266

s^2-5s-266=0

(s-19)(s+14)=0

s=19cm

19 x 19 = 266

The original dimensions of the square cardboard sheet is 19 x 19.

What is Quadratic Equation?

ax² + bx + c = 0 is a quadratic equation, which is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable, a≠0. It has at least one solution because it is a second-order polynomial equation, which is guaranteed by the algebraic fundamental theorem. The answer could be simple or complicated.

Given:

Let the length of each side of the original square cardboard be x cm.

After cutting off a strip of 3cm wide its dimension becomes

length = x cm and breadth= (x−5) cm

So, Area = x² - 5x

266 = x² - 5x

x² - 5x - 266= 0

x² - 19x + 14x - 266= 0

x(x - 19) + 14 (x - 19)= 0

(x- 19)( x + 14) = 0

x= 19, -14.

Hence, the original dimensions of the square cardboard sheet is 19 x 19.
