The Graph Models The Height Of A Burning Candle Over A 10-hour Period.What Is The Rate Of Change Of The

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. -1.5 cm/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change = [tex] \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]

Using the coordinates of the two points on the line, (0, 18) and (4, 12),

Let,

[tex] (0, 18) = (x_1, y_1) [/tex]

[tex] (4, 12) = (x_2, y_2) [/tex]

Plug the values into the formula for rate of change.

Rate of change = [tex] \frac{12 - 18}{4 - 0} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{-6}{4} [/tex]

Simplify

[tex] = \frac{-3}{2} = -1.5 [/tex]

Rate of change = -1.5 cm/hour

Flight Path of a Bird

In this activity, you'll use quadratic equations to model situations and interpret the solutions to the equation

The flight path of a bird can be represented by this equation, where x represents the horizontal distance, in feet, from a tree

branch and y represents the height, in feet, relative to the ground.

y = 2x2 - 8x + 10

Part A

Question

Rewrite the equation modeling the path of the bird in vertex form by completing the square,

Substitute the values of a, h, and k to complete the equation.

Answers

Answer:

The equation modeling the path of the bird in vertex form is [tex]y=2(x-2)^2+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

General vertex form equation: [tex]f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k[/tex]

where (h,k) is the vertex

The flight path of a bird can be represented by this equation: [tex]y = 2x^2 - 8x + 10[/tex]

To convert the equation in vertex form

Completing the square :

[tex]y = 2(x^2 - 4x + 5)\\y = 2(x^2 - 4x + 5 +(2)^2-(2)^2)\\y = 2(x^2 - 4x + 5 +(2)^2-4)\\y = 2((x-2)^2-4+5)\\y = 2((x-2)^2+1)\\y=2(x-2)^2+2[/tex]

Where:

(h,k)=(2,2)

a=2

Hence the equation modeling the path of the bird in vertex form is [tex]y=2(x-2)^2+2[/tex]

Suppose that X is a random variable with mean 20 and standard deviation 5. Also suppose that Y is a random variable with mean 40 and standard deviation 10. Assume that the correlation between X and Y is 0.5. Find the mean and variance of the random variable Z = ????3X ???? 2Y . Be sure to show all your work.

Answers

Answer:

a

 [tex]E(Z) =  202 [/tex]  

b

[tex]E(Z) = 198[/tex]

c

[tex]E(Z) = -140  [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mean of X  is [tex] E(X)  =  20[/tex]

   The standard deviation of X is  [tex]s_1 = 5[/tex]

   The mean of Y  is [tex]\= y  =  40[/tex]

    The standard deviation of Y is  [tex]s_2 = 10[/tex]

Considering question a  

Generally the mean of   Z = 2 + 10X. is mathematically  represented

    [tex]E(Z) = E[2 + 10X ][/tex]

=> [tex]E(Z) =  2 +  10 E(X)[/tex]

=>  [tex]E(Z) =  2 +  10 * 20 [/tex]        

=>  [tex]E(Z) =  202 [/tex]          

Considering question b

Generally the mean of   Z = 10X - 2.. is mathematically  represented  

        [tex]E(Z) = E[10X -2 ][/tex]

   => [tex]E(Z) = 10E(X) - 2[/tex]

  =>  [tex]E(Z) = 10* 20  - 2[/tex]

  =>  [tex]E(Z) = 200  - 2[/tex]

 =>  [tex]E(Z) = 198[/tex]

Considering question c

Generally the mean of   -3X - 2Y is mathematically  represented

     [tex]E(Z) = E[-3X -2Y ][/tex]

     [tex]E(Z) = -3 E(X) -2E(Y) [/tex]

=>   [tex]E(Z) = -3 * 20 -2* 40 [/tex]

=> [tex]E(Z) = -140  [/tex]

Suppose that a sample of n students at the same university​ (instead of n​) determines that ​% of the sample use the web browser. At the level of​ significance, is there evidence that the market share for the web browser at the university is greater than the worldwide market share of ​%?

Answers

Complete Question

The worldwide market share for a web browser was 20.5​% in a recent month. Suppose that a sample of 200 random students at a certain university finds that 50 use the browser.

At the 0.05 level of​ significance, is there evidence that the market share for the web browser at the university is greater than the worldwide market share of 20.5​%?

Answer:

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There is no sufficient evidence to show that the market share for the web browser at the university is greater than the worldwide market share of  20.5 ​%?

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The population proportion is  [tex]p = 0.205[/tex]

          The sample size is  n  =  200

          The number that uses the browser is  k =  50

          The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

         

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\^ p = \frac{50}{200}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\^ p = 0.250[/tex]

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.205[/tex]

The  alternative hypothesis  is  [tex]H_a : p > 0.205[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

          [tex]z = \frac{ \^ p - p }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ p (1 - p )}{ n} } }[/tex]

=>       [tex]z = \frac{ 0.250 - 0.205 }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.205 (1 - 0.205 )}{ 200} } }[/tex]

=>       [tex]z = 1.5764[/tex]

Generally the area under  [tex]z = 1.5764[/tex]  to the right is  

     [tex]p-value = P( Z > 1.5764 ) = 0.057467[/tex]

From the value we obtained we can see that the [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex] hence

 The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

   The conclusion is

There is no sufficient evidence to show that the market share for the web browser at the university is greater than the worldwide market share of 20.5 ​%?

2. 0

3. See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (1):

From the list of given options, Option C. Rational Algebraic Expression answers the question.

And it is always of the form P/Q where P and Q are polynomials

Take for instance

P = x² - x + 2 and Q = x² + 2x - 4

P/Q = (x² - x + 2)/(x² + 2x - 4)

The above expression is a perfect example of a Rational Algebraic Expression

Solving (2): The denominator of a rational algebraic expression must not equal 0

Hence, option A answers the question

Solving (3): The options are missing.

Physicists estimate that there are between 1078 and 1082 atoms in the universe. How do these two numbers compare with one another? If the larger number is right, how many universes with the smaller number of atoms would fit inside the larger universe?

Answers

Answer:

10,000 universes with the smaller number of atoms would fit inside the larger universe

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is as follows;

Physicists estimate that there are between 10^78 and 10^82 atoms in the universe. How do these two numbers compare with one another? If the larger number is right, how many universes with the smaller number of atoms would fit inside the larger universe?

Solution

To find the amount of the smaller number of atoms that will fit into the larger, we simply divide

Thus, we have;

10^82/10^78 = 10^4 = 10,000

Estimates are used to give the approximated value of a quantity.

10000 of the smaller universe will fit in the larger universe.

The number of atoms is:

[tex]\mathbf{n_1 = 10^{78}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n_2 = 10^{82}}[/tex]

(a) The larger universe

By comparison,

[tex]\mathbf{10^{82} > 10^{78}}[/tex]

This means that: the atoms in the second universe are larger than the number of atoms in the first.

(b) The number of small universe in the large universe

This is calculated by dividing the number of atoms in the large universe by the small universe

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{n = \frac{n_2}{n_1}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = \frac{10^{82} }{ 10^{78}}}[/tex]

Apply law of logarithm

[tex]\mathbf{n = 10^{82 - 78} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 10^{4} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 10000 }[/tex]

Hence, 10000 of the smaller universe will fit in the larger universe.
