For a confidence level of 85%, find the critical value for a normally distributed variable. The sample mean is normally distributed if the population standard deviation is known.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The  value is  [tex]Z_{\alpha } = 1.439[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  confidence level is  C  =  85%  

Generally the level of significance is mathematically represented as

         [tex]\alpha = (100 - 85 )\%[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 0.15[/tex]

Now from the normal distribution table  the critical value  of [tex]\alpha[/tex] is  

     [tex]Z_{\alpha } = 1.439[/tex]

None of these.

Answers

Answer: None of these

Explanation:

f(g(5)) first let’s find g(5)

We know:
g(x) = x - 2
g(5) = 5 - 2
g(5) = 3

Thus, f(g(5)) = f(3) because g(5) = 3

=> f(3) = 3(3) + 10
=> f(3) = 9 + 10
=> f(3) = 19

Therefore, f(g(5)) = 19

The value of the function f (g (5)) will be 10.

What is substitution method?

To find the value of any one of the variables from one equation in terms of the other variable is called the substitution method.

Given that;

The function are,

f(x) = 3x + 10 and g(x) = x - 2

Now,

Solve the function as;

f (g (5)) = f (5 - 2)

          = f (3)

          = 3 × 3 + 10

          = 9 + 10

          = 10

Thus, The value of the function f (g (5)) will be 10.

A group of college students is volunteering for Homes for the Community during their spring break. They are putting the finishing touches on a house they built. Working alone, Wade can paint a certain room in 6 hours. Rhonda can paint the same room in 3 hours. How long will it take them working together to paint the room? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given,

Wade can do the work alone in 6 hours.

Rhonda can do the same work in 3 hours.

Next, we shall determine how much work is done by Wade and Rhonda in 1 hour each. This is illustrated below:

If Wade can do the work alone in 6 hours.

Then Wade can do 1/6 of the work in 1 hour.

If Rhonda can do the same work in 3 hours.

Then Rhonda can do 1/3 of the work in 1 hour.

Next, we shall determine the work done by Wade and Rhonda when they work together. This is illustrated below:

Wade's 1 hour work = 1/6

Rhonda's 1 hour work = 1/3

Therefore, work done by Wade and Rhonda together in 1 hour = 1/6 + 1/3 = 3/6 = 1/2

Since they completed 1/2 of the work in 1 hour, it means they will complete the work in 2 hours.

There are 5 different pairs of gloves, where left and right are distinguishable. Select 4 of the 10 gloves. (a) How many are there to select 2 pairs of gloves? (b) How many ways are there to select 4 gloves out of the 10 such that 2 of the 4 make a pair. (a pair consists of any right glove and left glove.)

Answers

Answer:

(a) How many are there to select 2 pairs of gloves?

10 ways

(b) How many ways are there to select 4 gloves out of the 10 such that 2 of the 4 make a pair. (a pair consists of any right glove and left glove.)

130 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above questions using Combination

Combination = C(n, r) = nCr

= n!/n! ×(n - r)!

(a) How many are there to select 2 pairs of gloves?

We have 5 pairs of gloves. Therefore, the number of ways to select 2 gloves =5C2

= 5!/2! × (5 - 2)!

= 5!/2! × 3!

= 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1/(2 × 1) × (3 × 2 × 1)!

= 10 ways.

(b) How many ways are there to select 4 gloves out of the 10 such that 2 of the 4 make a pair. (a pair consists of any right glove and left glove.)

We are told to select 4 gloves out of the 10 gloves = 10C4

We have 5 pairs, we need to make sure that two out of the selected 4 make a pair = 5 × 2⁴

= 80

Hence,

10C4 - 5C4

= [10!/4! × (10 - 4)!] - 80

= 210 - 80

= 130 ways

When a number is increased by 3 and that number is doubled, the result is -8. What was the original number?​

Answers

Answer:

The original number is -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this section, we are trying to figure out a mysterious number. Let's call this number y. To find the value of y, we need to create an equation. Our equation will be based on clues hidden in the text. So, what do we know?

- A number, aka y, is increased by 3. (y+3)

-That number is doubled. 'That number' refers to the answer of y+3. So, (y+3)x2.

-Finally, the end result is -8.

Great! Now we know our equation: 2(y+3)=-8. We need to figure out what y equals, so let's isolate the y term with some algebra.

2(y+3)=-8; Original formula

2y+6=-8; Distribute the (y+3)

2y=-14; Carry the 6 to the other side of the equation.

y=-7: Divide

Thus, our mysterious number is -7. Hope this helps:)))

PLEASE HELP ME, I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

Answers

Hello,

First of all, dividing by 0 is not defined we will take x different from 1/3 (because -1+3x= 0 <=> x = 1/3)

Then, dividing this polynomial by (-1+3x) means that you have to have Q(x), a polynomial of degree 1 and R a real number such that

[tex]\dfrac{9x^2-6x+2}{-1+3x}=Q(x)+\dfrac{R}{-1+3x}\\\\\text{We can multiply by (-1+3x)}\\\\9x^2-6x+2=(-1+3x)Q(x)+R[/tex]

Either you do the division and you can select the correct answer or you check the different answer to identify the correct one.

For instance, for the first answer, let's estimate

[tex](-1+3x)(3x-3)+\dfrac{-1+3x}{3x-1}\\\\=-3x+3+9x^2-9x+1\\\\=9x^2-12x+4[/tex]

and this is not equal to our initial polynomial, so this is not the correct answer.

Second Answer.

[tex](-1+3x)(3x-1)+\dfrac{-1+3x}{3x-1}\\\\=-3x+1+9x^2-3x+1\\\\=9x^2-6x+2[/tex]

And this is our initial polynomial. So this is the [tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bf \text{correct answer}}[/tex]

Thank you.

PS: in this example, you can even notice the following (so it makes the division trivial)

[tex](3x-1)^x=9x^2-6x+1 \\\\\text{So}\\\\9x^2-6x+2= (3x-1)^2+1\\\\\text{And, then.}\\\\\dfrac{9x^2-6x+2}{-1+3x}=3x-1+\dfrac{1}{3x-1}[/tex]

What is the y-intercept of the graph of the following data? a (-1, 0) b (0, 3) c (0, -3) d (1, 6).

Let (6,-5) be a point on the terminal side of θ. Find the exact values of sin θ, sec θ, and tan θ.

Answers

Answer:

sinθ = -5/√61

secθ = √61/6

tanθ = -5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given coordinate (6, -5), x = 6 and y = -5. This shows that the point lies in the 4th quadrant. In the fourth quadrant, only cos θ is positive, both sin θ and tan θ are negative.

Let us get the value of the radius 'r' first before calculating the trigonometry identities.

Using the Pythagoras theorem;

[tex]r^2 = x^2 + y^2\\r^2 = 6^2 + (-5)^2\\r^2 = 36+25\\r^2 = 61\\r = \sqrt{61}[/tex]

Using SOH, CAH, TOA to get the trigonometry identities;

Given x = 6, y =5 and r = √61

[tex]sin \theta = opp/hyp = y/r\\sin \theta = 5/\sqrt{61} \\[/tex]

Since sin θ, is negative in the fourth quadrant, [tex]sin \theta = -5/\sqrt{61} \\[/tex]

[tex]cos \theta = adj/hyp = x/r\\cos \theta = 6/\sqrt{61} \\[/tex]

[tex]sec \theta = \frac{1}{cos \theta} \\sec \theta = \frac{1}{6/\sqrt{61} } \\sec \theta = \frac{\sqrt{61} }{6}[/tex]

For tanθ:

[tex]tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj} = \frac{y}{x} \\tan \theta = \frac{5}{6}\\[/tex]

Since tan θ, is negative in the fourth quadrant, [tex]tan \theta = -5/6[/tex]

 [tex]SIN\Theta=\frac{-5}{\sqrt{61} }[/tex],

[tex]SEC\Theta=\frac{\sqrt{61} }{6}[/tex]  

[tex]TAN\Theta=\frac{-5}{6}[/tex].

Given coordinate of point be (6, -5).

So the point lies in the 4th quadrant. In the fourth quadrant, only cos θ is positive, both sin θ and tan θ are negative.

Since (6, -5) is on the terminal side that puts us in the fourth quadrant. If we plot that point and draw a diagonal to it from the origin, we will be able to draw a right triangle with that diagonal as the hypotenuse.That means the adjacent side is 6 and opposite side it -5.

By Pythagorean theorem, we find that the hypotenuse

[tex]H=\sqrt{6^{2} +(-5)^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]H=\sqrt{61}[/tex]

We know from trigonometric ratios,

[tex]SIN\Theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{hypotenuse} \\[/tex]

[tex]SIN\Theta=\frac{5}{\sqrt{61} }[/tex]

Since [tex]SIN\Theta[/tex] is negative in 4th quadrant,

so,

[tex]SIN\Theta=\frac{-5}{\sqrt{61} }[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]SEC\Theta=\frac{hypotenuse}{base}[/tex]

[tex]SEC\Theta=\frac{\sqrt{61} }{6}[/tex]

And,

[tex]TAN\Theta=\frac{perpendicular}{base}[/tex]

[tex]TAN\Theta=\frac{-5}{6}[/tex]

Hence,  [tex]SIN\Theta=\frac{-5}{\sqrt{61} }[/tex], [tex]SEC\Theta=\frac{\sqrt{61} }{6}[/tex]  and [tex]TAN\Theta=\frac{-5}{6}[/tex].

Which expression is equivalent to (73)5 • 74 ?

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:

Which expression is equivalent to (73) 5 • 74?

Select each correct answer:

73 • 5 + 4

73 + 5 + 4

73 + 5 • 74

73 • 5 • 74

The answer to this question is  73 • 5 • 74

Explanation:

The symbol • represents multiplication, this implies the numbers 5 and 74 should be multiplied when solving this operation. Moreover, if the expression is simplified the same symbol or a multiplication symbol should be used.

Moreover, the lack of a symbol between these numbers and 73 indicates multiplication. Indeed, in algebra and some fields of mathematics, the multiplication symbol is omitted, and two numbers standing side by side with no symbol indicate the multiplication. Thus, it is correct to place a multiplication symbol between 73 and the other numbers.

An elevator descends into mine shaft at the rate of 6m/min. If the descend starts from 10m above the ground level , how long will it take to reach the shaft which is 350m below the ground level?

Answers

Answer: Hi!

So first, I'm going to convert "350 below ground level" to -350, as this is what "below ground level" represents.

Now, we should find the total distance traveled. Take the absolute value of -350 (350) and add it to 10, the metres above ground level. This is 360.

We already know the rate of travel; 6m/min. All we have to do now is divide the total distance (360) by the rate of travel (6)!

360 ÷ 6 = 60

So, it took 60 minutes, or one hour, for the elevator to travel down the shaft!

================================

Explanation:

SSS stands for "Side side side" indicating there are 3 pairs of sides that are same length. Visually we use tickmarks to show how the sides pair up. Eg: sides that have 1 tickmark only are the same length. If we know that all 3 pairs of sides are congruent, then we have enough info to conclude the triangles are congruent.SAS means "side angle side". The angle is between the two sides. The sides in question are the ones with tickmarks to indicate how they pair up. We have two angles and a side between them. So we use ASA this time. It stands for "Angle side angle". This is slightly different from AAS.We'll use AAS here. The side is not between the two angles. So this is why AAS is different from ASA. Some books may call "AAS" as "SAA", but they're the same thing. HL stands for hypotenuse leg. This only applies to right triangles (since the hypotenuse is a special term for the longest side of a right triangle). The hypotenuse is always opposite the 90 degree angle. This is the only time when SSA will work. Otherwise, SSA is ambiguous and it is not a valid congruence theorem.
