Answer:
(A) Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu_1 \geq \mu_2[/tex]
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu_1<\mu_2[/tex]
(B) The value of t-test statistics is -18.48.
(C) The P-value is Less than 0.005%.
(D) Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the cans of diet soda have mean weights that are lower than the mean weight for the regular soda.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the Data on the weights (lb) of the contents of cans of diet soda versus the contents of cans of the regular version of the soda is summarized to the right;
Diet Regular
μ μ1 μ2
n 20 20
x 0.78062lb 0.81645 lb
s 0.00444 lb 0.00745 lb
Let [tex]\mu_1[/tex] = mean weight of contents of cans of diet soda.
[tex]\mu_2[/tex] = mean weight of contents of cans of regular soda.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu_1 \geq \mu_2[/tex] {means that the contents of cans of diet soda have weights with a mean that is more than or equal to the mean for the regular soda}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu_1<\mu_2[/tex] {means that the contents of cans of diet soda have weights with a mean that is less than the mean for the regular soda}
The test statistics that will be used here is Two-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviations;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_1- \mu_2)}{s_p \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t__n_1_+_n_2_-_2[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X_1[/tex] = sample mean weight of cans of diet soda = 0.78062 lb
[tex]\bar X_2[/tex] = sample mean weight of cans of regular soda = 0.81645 lb
[tex]s_1[/tex] = sample standard deviation of cans of diet soda = 0.00444 lb
[tex]s_2[/tex] = sample standard deviation of cans of regular soda = 0.00745 lb
[tex]n_1[/tex] = sample of cans of diet soda = 20
[tex]n_2[/tex] = sample of cans of diet soda = 20
Also, [tex]s_p =\sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)s_1^{2}+ (n_2-1)s_2^{2}}{n_1+n_2-2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(20-1)\times 0.00444^{2}+ (20-1)\times 0.00745^{2}}{20+20-2} }[/tex] = 0.00613
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{(0.78062-0.81645)-(0)}{0.00613 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_3_8[/tex]
= -18.48
The value of t-test statistics is -18.48.
Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;
P-value = P( [tex]t_3_8[/tex] < -18.48) = Less than 0.005%
Now, at a 0.01 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of -2.429 at 38 degrees of freedom for the left-tailed test.
Since the value of our test statistics is less than the critical value of t as -18.48 < -2.429, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that the contents of cans of diet soda have weights with a mean that is less than the mean for the regular soda.

2) A basketball player scores 70% of his shots on average. What is the probability that he scores at least 18 successful shots tonight if he gets 20 shots?
Answer:
3.54%
Step-by-step explanation:
This question represents a binomial distribution. A binomial distribution is given by:
[tex]P(x)=\frac{n!}{(n-x)!x!} p^xq^{n-x}[/tex]
Where n is the total number of trials, p is the probability of success, q is the probability of failure and x is the number of success.
Given that:
A basketball player scores 70% of his shots on average, therefore p = 70% = 0.7. Also q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3.
The total number of trials (n) = 20 shots
The probability that he scores at least 18 successful shots tonight if he gets 20 shots = P(x = 18) + P(x = 19) + P(x = 20)
P(x = 18) = [tex]\frac{20!}{(20-18)!18!}*0.7^{18}*0.3^{20-18}=0.0278[/tex]
P(x = 19) = [tex]\frac{20!}{(20-19)!19!}*0.7^{19}*0.3^{20-19}=0.0068[/tex]
P(x = 20) = [tex]\frac{20!}{(20-20)!20!}*0.7^{20}*0.3^{20-20}=0.0008[/tex]
The probability that he scores at least 18 successful shots tonight if he gets 20 shots = P(x = 18) + P(x = 19) + P(x = 20) = 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.0354 = 3.54%

{B) x= 0 ou x= 2}
{C) x= 0 ou x= 9}
{D) x= 2 ou x= -7/2}
{E) x= 0 ou x= 9/2}
Answer:
E) x= 0 or x= 9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following equation:
[tex]2x^2-7=7(x-1)+2x[/tex] (1)
In order to find the solutions for x of the equation (1), you simplify it and factorize in a convenient way, as follow:
[tex]2x^2-7=7x-7+2x\\\\2x^2-9x=0\\\\x(2x-9)=0[/tex] (2)
Then, by the previous factors, it is necessary that either x=0 or 2x-9 = 0.
Thus, one of the solution is x=0. The other solution is:
[tex]2x-9=0\\\\x=\frac{9}{2}[/tex]
Hence, the solutions of the equation (1) are:
E) x= 0 or x= 9/2

A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21. What is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8? Round to nearest thousandth
Answer: 0.476
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A = Event of choosing an even number ball.
B = Event of choosing an 8 .
Given, A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21.
Sample space: S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., 21}
n(S) = 21
Then, A= {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)}
i.e. n(A)= 10
B= {8}
n(B) = 1
A∪B = {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)} = A
n(A∪B)=10
Now, the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8 is
[tex]P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{10}{21}\approx0.476[/tex]
Hence, the required probability =0.476
WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST 4. Suppose there is a card game where you are dealt a hand of three cards. You have already learned that the total number of three-card hands that can be dealt from a deck of 52 cards is: 52C3=52!/49!3! 52C3=22100 Calculate the probability of getting a hand that has exactly two aces in it (A A X). Do this by finding out the number of possible hands that have exactly two aces, and then dividing by the total possible number of three-card hands that is stated above. Part A: Use the multiplication principle to tell the total number of three-card hands (permutations) that can be made with two aces. (2 points) Part B: In the answer from Part I, each two-ace hand got counted twice. For example, A A X got counted as a separate hand from A A X. Since order should not matter in a card hand, these are really the same hand. What is the actual number of two-ace hands (combinations) you can get from a deck of 52 cards?(2 points) Part C: Find the probability of drawing a three-card hand that includes two aces from a deck of 52 cards. Write your answer as a fraction. (2 points)
Answer:
Part A- 6
Part B- 3
Part C- 3/22100
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A-
Use the permutation formula and plug in 3 for n and 2 for k.
nPr=n!/(n-k)!
3P2=3!/(3-2)!
Simplify.
3P2=3!/1!
3P2=6
Part B-
Use the combination formula and plug in 3 for n and 2 for k.
nCk=n!/k!(n-k)!
3C2=3!/2!(3-2)!
Simplify.
3C2=3!/2!(1!)
3C2=3
Part C-
It is given that the total number of three-card hands that can be dealt from a deck of 52 cards is 22100. Use the fact that the probability of something equals the total successful outcomes over the sample space. In this case the total successful outcomes is 3 and the sample space is 22100.
I believe the answer is 3/22100
I honestly suck at probability but I tried my best.
What is the measure of x?
Answer:
9 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the line 10 in. and line 4 in. are parallel, then the two triangles are similar.
As such, the ratio of the sides would give the same results.
Hence,
4/6 = 10/(6 + x)
cross multiplying
4(6 + x) = 60
Dividing both sides by 4
6 + x = 15
collecting like terms
x = 15 - 6
= 9
PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE EVERYTHING Amare wants to ride a Ferris wheel that sits four meters above the ground and has a diameter of 50 meters. It takes six minutes to do three revolutions on the Ferris wheel. Complete the function, h(t), which models Amare's height above the ground, in meters, as a function of time, t, in minutes. Assume he enters the ride at the low point when t = 0.
Answer:
[tex]h(t)=-25\cos(\pi t)+29[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing to understand is that we will be producing a sine or cosine function to solve this one. I'll use a cosine function for the sake of the problem, since it's most easily represented by a cosine wave flipped over. If you're interested in seeing a visualization of how a circle's height converts to one of these waves, you may find the Better Explained article Intuitive Understanding of Sine Waves helpful.
Now let's get started on the problem. Cosine functions generally take the form
[tex]y=a\cos(b(x-c))+d[/tex]
Where:
[tex]|a|[/tex] is the amplitude
[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] is the period, or the time it takes to go one full rotation around the circle (ferris wheel)
[tex]c[/tex] is the horizontal displacement
[tex]d[/tex] is the vertical shift
Step one, find the period of the function. To do this, we know that it takes six minutes to do three revolutions on the ferris wheel, so it takes 2 minutes to do one full revolution. Now, let's find [tex]b[/tex] to put into our function:
[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=2[/tex]
[tex]2\pi=2b[/tex]
[tex]\pi=b[/tex]
I skipped some of the basic algebra to shorten the solution, but we have found our b. Next, we'll get the amplitude of the wave by using the maximum and minimum height of the wheel. Remember, it's 4 meters at its lowest point, meaning its highest point is 54 meters in the air rather than 50. Using the formula for amplitude:
[tex]\frac{\max-\min}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{54-4}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{50}{2}=25=a[/tex]
Our vertical transformation is given by [tex]\min+a[/tex] or [tex]\max-a[/tex], which is the height of the center of the ferris wheel, [tex]4+25=29=d[/tex]
Because cosine starts at the minimum, [tex]c=0[/tex].
The last thing to point out is that a cosine wave starts at its maximum. For that reason, we need to flip the entire function by making the amplitude negative in our final equation. Therefore our equation ends up being:
[tex]h(t)=-25\cos(\pi t)+29[/tex]

The cost of plastering the 4 walls of a room which is 4m high and breadth one third of its length is Rs. 640 at the rate of Rs. 5/m². What will be the cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m².
Answer:
Rs. 32,000
Step-by-step explanation:
height = 4m
let length = x m
breadth = x/3 m
Area of the 4 walls = 2(length × height) + 2(breadth × height)
Area = 2(4×x) + 2(4 × x/3) = 8x + (8x)/3
Area = (32x)/3 m²
1 m² = Rs. 5
The cost for an area that is (32x)/3 m²= (32x)/3 × 5 Rs.
The cost of plastering 4 walls at Rs.5 per m² = 640
(32x)/3 × 5 = 640
(160x)/3 = 640
x = length = 12
Area = (32x)/3 m² = (32×12)/3 = 128m²
The cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m²:
= 128m² × Rs. 250/m² = 32,000
The cost of carpeting its floor at the rate of Rs. 250/m² = Rs. 32,000

Answer:
Volume: 112 m³.
Surface area: 172 m².
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume is the base times height times length. So, the volume will be 2 * 8 * 7 = 16 * 7 = 112 m³.
The surface area is 2lw + 2lh + 2wh. l = 8; w = 7; h = 2.
2(8)(7) + 2(8)(2) + 2(7)(2) = 2 * 56 + 2 * 16 + 2 * 14 = 112 + 32 + 28 = 112 + 60 = 172 m².

For questions 13-15, Let Z1=2(cos(pi/5)+i Sin(pi/5)) And Z2=8(cos(7pi/6)+i Sin(7pi/6)). Calculate The Following Keeping Your Answer In Polar Form. 13. z1z2 14. z2 15. z1/z2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following complex values Z₁=2(cos(π/5)+i Sin(πi/5)) And Z₂=8(cos(7π/6)+i Sin(7π/6)). We are to calculate the following complex numbers;
a) Z₁Z₂ = 2(cos(π/5)+i Sin(πi/5)) * 8(cos(7π/6)+i Sin(7π/6))
Z₁Z₂ = 18 {(cos(π/5)+i Sin(π/5))*(cos(7π/6)+i Sin(7π/6)) }
Z₁Z₂ = 18{cos(π/5)cos(7π/6) + icos(π/5)sin(7π/6)+i Sin(π/5)cos(7π/6)+i²Sin(π/5)Sin(7π/6)) }
since i² = -1
Z₁Z₂ = 18{cos(π/5)cos(7π/6) + icos(π/5)sin(7π/6)+i Sin(π/5)cos(7π/6)-Sin(π/5)Sin(7π/6)) }
Z₁Z₂ = 18{cos(π/5)cos(7π/6) -Sin(π/5)Sin(7π/6) + i(cos(π/5)sin(7π/6)+ Sin(π/5)cos(7π/6)) }
From trigonometry identity, cos(A+B) = cosAcosB - sinAsinB and sin(A+B) = sinAcosB + cosAsinB
The equation becomes
= 18{cos(π/5+7π/6) + isin(π/5+7π/6)) }
= 18{cos((6π+35π)/30) + isin(6π+35π)/30)) }
= 18{cos((41π)/30) + isin(41π)/30)) }
b) z2 value has already been given in polar form and it is equivalent to 8(cos(7pi/6)+i Sin(7pi/6))
c) for z1/z2 = 2(cos(pi/5)+i Sin(pi/5))/8(cos(7pi/6)+i Sin(7pi/6))
let A = pi/5 and B = 7pi/6
z1/z2 = 2(cos(A)+i Sin(A))/8(cos(B)+i Sin(B))
On rationalizing we will have;
= 2(cos(A)+i Sin(A))/8(cos(B)+i Sin(B)) * 8(cos(B)-i Sin(B))/8(cos(B)-i Sin(B))
= 16{cosAcosB-icosAsinB+isinAcosB-sinAsinB}/64{cos²B+sin²B}
= 16{cosAcosB-sinAsinB-i(cosAsinB-sinAcosB)}/64{cos²B+sin²B}
From trigonometry identity; cos²B+sin²B = 1
= 16{cos(A+ B)-i(sin(A+B)}/64
= 16{cos(pi/5+ 7pi/6)-i(sin(pi/5+7pi/6)}/64
= 16{ (cos 41π/30)-isin(41π/30)}/64
Z1/Z2 = (cos 41π/30)-isin(41π/30)/4
Answer:
13. 16(cos(41 π/30)+ isin(41 π/30))
14. Mine asked for z2 magnitude so I got 8 (magnitude is the same as modulus which is r)
15. 1/8 (cos(29 π/30)+ isin(29 π/30))
Step-by-step explanation:
13. Since we’re multiplying z1, and z2, use De Moivre’s theorem by multiplying the r values (2 and 8) and adding the theta values (π/5 and 7π/6). Adding the angle values should lead you to have 41 π/30, and the rest is self-explanatory.
14. Explanation is in the answer, just take the r value from z2 for magnitude (at least that’s what’s on my practice assignment)
15. Use De Moivre’s theorem again, this time with division, so you will divide the r values (2 divided by 8) and subtract the theta values (π/5 minus 7π/6). 2/8 simplifies to 1/8 and when subtracting with 6π/30 - 35π/30 (finding common denominators) you should get 29π/30.

Step-by-step explanation:
The amount remaining after d days is ...
a = (1/2)^(d/7)
We want to find d when a = 0.14
log(a) = (d/7)log(1/2)
d = 7·log(0.14)/log(1/2) ≈ 19.855 ≈ 19.9

25 points will mark brainlest as part of the save nature campaign the city Forest department has decided to grow more trees to kick off the campaign they start by planting 2 pine trees it has been decided that every year they will increase the amount of trees but 1 tree less than the square of the previous year's count which of the following recursives formulas can be used to determine the total number of tree planted in the future assume there is in limited space for trees and n is the number of years of the program's operation
Answer:
N(n+1) = N(n)^2 - 1, n>=0, N(0) = 2
or equivalently
N(n) = N(n-1)^2 - 1, n>0, N(0) = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Year 0 = 2 trees
year 1 = 2^2-1 = 3
year 2 = 3^2-1 =8
year 2 = 8^2-1 =63
...
Recursive formula
Let
n = integer year number
N(n) = number of trees to plant in year n
N(n+1) = N(n)^2-1, n>=0, N(0) = 2
or equivalently
N(n) = N(n-1)^2, n>0, N(0) = 2

Find the largest integer which belongs to the following interval: [−∞, 31]
Answer:
Largest integer in the interval [−∞, 31] is 31.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the interval: [−∞, 31]
To find: The largest integer in this interval.
Solution:
First of all, let us learn about the representation of intervals.
Two kind of brackets can be used to represent the intervals. i.e. () and [].
Round bracket means not included in the interval and square bracket means included in the interval.
Also, any combination can also be used.
Let us discuss one by one.
1. [p, q] It means the interval contains the values between p and q. Furthermore, p and q are also included in the interval.
Smallest p
Largest q
2. (p, q) It means the interval contains the values between p and q. Furthermore, p and q are not included in the interval.
Smallest value just greater than p.
Largest value just smaller than q.
3. [p, q) It means the interval contains the values between p and q. Furthermore, p is included in the interval but q is not included in the interval.
Smallest value p.
Largest value just smaller than q.
4. (p, q] It means the interval contains the values between p and q. Furthermore, p is not included in the interval but q is included in the interval.
Smallest value just greater than p.
Largest value q.
As per above explanation, we can clearly observe that:
The largest integer which belongs to the following interval: [−∞, 31] is 31.
The value of a car dropped from $7400 to $6800 over the last year. What percent decrease is this?
Answer:
8.1% decrease
Step by step
To find precentage decrease we use formula:
Percent decrease= original amount-new amount/original amount(100%)
percent decrease= 7,400-6,800/7,400(100%)=300/37=8.1%
