A 90% confidence interval for the average weight (in pounds) of Americans was found to be (185, 210). The point estimate for this confidence interval is:_______

a. 25
b. 12.5
c. 197.5
d. 1.645

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the lowe confidence interval = 185

The upper confidence interval = 210

Mean of X = (lower confidence + upper confidence interval)/2

Mean of X = 185 + 210/2

= 197.5

The margin of error = the upper confidence interval - mean of X

= 210-197.5

= 12.5

You stand 20 ft from a bottle rocket on the ground and watch it as it takes off vertically into the air at a rate of 18 ft/sec. Find the rate at which the angle of elevation from the point on the ground at you feet and the rocket changes when the rocket is 40 ft in the air. At the moment the rocket is 40 ft in the air, the angle of elevation is changing at a rate of rad/se.

Answers

Answer:

9/50 rad/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

let the angle be represented as ∅

distance form bottle rocket on the ground = 20 ft

height of rocket = 40 ft

solution

first we differentiate w.r.t.time

= sec²(∅)*(d(∅)/dt))=(1/20)*dh/dt   --------- ( 1 )

=  d(∅)/dt = (1/20)cos²(∅)* (dh/dt)   ------- ( 2 )

note :  1/sec(∅) =cos(∅)

therefore ; dh/dt = 18 ft/sec

applying Pythagoras theorem

Tan ∅ =  40 / 20

 h^2( hypotenuse )  = a^2( height )  + b^2 ( distance from bottle rocket )

                     h = √ 40^2 + 20^2 =  √ 2000

also cos ( ∅ ) = b / h  =  20 / √ 2000

hence cos²∅ = 1/5

Back to equation 2

d(∅)/dt=(1/20)×(1/5)×(18)

= 18/100  = 9/50 ( changing rate of angle of elevation )

what are all values of x for which the series shown converges? ​

Answers

Answer:

One convergence criteria that is useful here is that, if aₙ is the n-th term of this sequence, then we must have:

Iaₙ₊₁I < IaₙI

This means that the absolute value of the terms must decrease as n increases.

Then we must have:

[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}}[/tex]

We can write this as:

[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}} = \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n + 1)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}[/tex]

If we assume that n is a really big number, then:

n + 1 ≈ 1

And we can write:

[tex]\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}[/tex]

Then we have the inequality

[tex]1 > (x - 2)/3[/tex]

And remember that this must be in absolute value, then we will have that:

-1 < (x - 2)/3 < 1

-3 < x - 2 < 3

-3 + 2 < x < 3 + 2

-1 < x < 5

The first option looks like this, but it uses the symbols ≤≥, so it is not the same as this, then the correct option will be the second.

TIME (HOURS)

Answers

Answer:

15) The ratio of hours to miles is 1 hour to 75 miles; 1/75

16) They will have traveled 900 miles.

17) It will take them around 9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

15) Finding the unit rate of the trend (which in this case I considered to be line) can be done by finding the slope and simplifying it. There is a constant linear slope in this graph so it was evident that as the x-values increased by 1, the y-values increased by 75. All you had to do was convert the values into ratio form which would be 1/75. The 1 should remain "numerator" and the 75 as denominator because it is the hour-to-mile ratio (the units were listed in thw instructions in the chronological order in which they were to be answered in ratio form; 1 hour to 75 miles).

16) You can set up an equivalent-ratios equation. Because we know that the unit ratio is 1 hour to 75 miles, and we were given the value of 12 hours, we can set up the equation like this: 1/75=12/x. I would then multiply the 75 miles by 12 so that the ratios will be proportionate. This gives me 900 miles. Now I know, based on the ratio 12 hours to 900 miles (12/900), that if the family travels for 12 hours, they will have traveled 900 miles.

17) We can do the same thing as we did in number 16. We just have to switch the value we use in the second ratio. This means that the equivalent-ratios equation will look like 1/75=x/700, because 700 miles is our given value as opposed to a value with a unit of hours, and miles are the denominators in these ratios. Now we have to see how many times 75 goes into 700 to figure out what to multiply the 1 by to get our proportionate ratios. We have to divide 700 by 75 which is roughly 9 (rounded down from 9.3). The ratio now reads: 1/75=9/700. This means that it will take the family around 9 hours to drive 700 miles (9 hours to 700 miles was the ratio).

An insurance company offers a term life insurance policy with a renewable premium.

The first year premium is $900

The premiums increase 5.5% each year,

[tex]A=Pe^r^t[/tex]

5.5%=5.5/100 =0.055

[tex]A = 900(e)^0^.^0^5^5^\times^7[/tex]

Which function has vertical asymptotes at x=-1 and x=-2, an x-intercept at(8,0) , and no holes?

Answers

Answer:

y = (x - 8)/((x + 1)(x + 2))

Step-by-step explanation:

vertical asymptotes are given as at x=-1 and x=-2

Now, vertical assymptotes are values of x when the denominator is zero.

Thus, the function of the denominator can be written as;

(x + 1)(x + 2)

We are also told that x-intercept at (8,0).

Which means that y is zero when x is 8.

Thus, numerator is 8 when y is zero.

Thus, numerator can be expressed as (x - 8)

Thus,the function is now;

y = (x - 8)/((x + 1)(x + 2))

Proportions 6. A certain salsa is made with 6 parts tomato and 2 parts bell pepper. How many cups of tomato should be combined with 1.5 cups bell pepper? Write a proportion, then solve. ​

Answers

Answer:

4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the salsa is made with 6 parts tomato and 2 parts bell pepper.

Let t be tomatoes and b be bell peppers

The proportion will be:

t:b

The ratio of tomatoes to bell pepper will be:

6:2

This ratio simplifies to 3:1

This means no matter how much more the tomatoes and peppers are, the simplified ratio will be same.

Now the bell peppers are 1.5 cups then the proportion will be:

[tex]t:b::t:b\\6:2::t:1.5\\\frac{6}{2} = \frac{t}{1.5}\\3 = \frac{t}{1.5}\\t = 1.5 * 3\\t =4.5[/tex]

Hence,

4.5 cups of tomatoes should be combined with 1.5 cups of bell peppers.

A sample of 29 boxes of cereal has a sample standard deviation of 0.81 ounces. Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation of the filling process for the boxes of cereal.
a. ( 0.427,1.144)
b. (0.515,1.105)
c. (0.726,0.726)

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is   [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 29

    The sample standard deviation is [tex]s = 0.81[/tex]

  Generally the 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation  is mathematically represented as  

                      [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_( \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_(1- \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} }[/tex]

Generally from the  chi -distribution table  the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex]  is  

            [tex]X^2 _{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 28 } =44.46079184[/tex]

Generally from the  chi -distribution table  the critical value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex]  is  

             [tex]X^2 _{(1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}) , 28 } = 15.30786055[/tex]

So

                 [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{ 44.46079184 } } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{15.315.307860551 }[/tex]

=>              [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]

Answers

Odpowiedź:

48 cm

Wyjaśnienie krok po kroku:

Jeśli się uwzględni:

Wysokość trapezu = 6 cm

Długość podstaw:

Podstawa 1 = a = 9 cm

Podstawa 2 = b = (a - 2) = 9 - 2 = 7 cm

Uaing relacji:

Powierzchnia trapezu = 1/2 (a + b) * h

Powierzchnia trapezu = 0,5 (9 + 7) * 6

Powierzchnia trapezu = 0,5 (16) * 6

Powierzchnia trapezu = 8 * 6

Powierzchnia trapezu = 48 cm
