We have to calculate a 99% confidence interval for the mean.
The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.
The sample mean is M=71.6.
The sample size is N=19.
When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{20.4}{\sqrt{19}}=\dfrac{20.4}{4.359}=4.68[/tex]The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=19-1=18[/tex]The t-value for a 99% confidence interval and 18 degrees of freedom is t=2.878.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=2.878\cdot4.68=13.471[/tex]Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} LL=M-t\cdot s_M=71.6-13.471=58.129 \\ UL=M+t\cdot s_M=71.6+13.471=85.071 \end{gathered}[/tex]The 99% confidence interval for the mean is (58.129, 85.071). This interval does not include the value 100, so we can conclude that there is statistical evidence that the treatment reduces the mean wake time.
Let f(x) = 2x² + 14x – 16 and g(x) = x+8. Perform the function operation and then find the domain of the result.(x) = (simplify your answer.)
We need to find the following division of the functions f(x) and g(x):
[tex]\frac{f}{g}(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{2x^2+14x-16}{x+8}[/tex]We can note that the numerator can be rewritten as
[tex]2x^2+14x-16=2(x^2+7x-8)=2(x+8)(x-1)[/tex]Then the division can be written as:
[tex]\frac{f}{g}(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{2(x+8)(x-1)}{x+8}[/tex]From this result, we can cancel out the term (x+8) from both sides and get,
[tex]\frac{f}{g}(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=2(x-1)[/tex]Therefore, the result of the division is:
[tex]\frac{f}{g}(x)=2(x-1)[/tex]which domain is all real numbers:

Using the variables x and y to represent the number of milliliters of the 3.5% solution and the number of milliliters of the 6% solution respectively, determine a system of equation that describes the situation the situation.Enter the equations below separated by a comma How many milliliters of the 3.5% solution should be used?How many milliliters of 6% solution should be used?
Given:
A lab assistant needs to create a 1000 ML mixture that is 5% hydroelectric acid.
The assistant has solutions of 3.5% and 6% in supply at the lab.
let the number of milliliters from the solution of 3.5% = x
And the number of milliliters from the solution of 6% = y
so, we can write the following equations:
The first equation, the sum of the two solutions = 1000 ml
So, x + y = 1000
The second equation, the mixture has a concentration of 5%
so, 3.5x + 6y = 5 * 1000
So, the system of equations will be as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=1000\rightarrow(1) \\ 3.5x+6y=5000\rightarrow(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we will find the solution to the system using the substitution method:
From equation (1)
[tex]x=1000-y\rightarrow(3)[/tex]substitute with (x) from equation (3) into equation (2):
[tex]3.5\cdot(1000-y)+6y=5000[/tex]Solve the equation to find (y):
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3500-3.5y+6y=5000 \\ -3.5y+6y=5000-3500 \\ 2.5y=1500 \\ y=\frac{1500}{2.5}=600 \end{gathered}[/tex]substitute with (y) into equation (3) to find x:
[tex]x=1000-600=400[/tex]So, the answer will be:
Enter the equations below separated by a comma
[tex]x+y=1000,3.5x+6y=5000[/tex]How many milliliters of the 3.5% solution should be used?
400 milliliters
How many milliliters of 6% solution should be used?

Hi, can you help me to solve thisexercise, please!!For cach polynomial, LIST all POSSIBLE RATIONAL ROOTS•Find all factors of the leading coefficient andconstant value of polynonnal.•ANY RATIONAL ROOTS =‡ (Constant Factor over Leading Coefficient Factor)6x^3+7x^2-3x-1
1) We can do this by listing all the factors of -1, and the leading coefficient 6. So, we can write them as a ratio this way:
[tex]\frac{p}{q}=\pm\frac{1}{1,\:2,\:3,\:6}[/tex]Note that p stands for the constant and q the factors of that leading coefficient
2) Now, let's test them by plugging them into the polynomial. If it is a rational root it must yield zero:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 6x^3+7x^2-3x+1=0 \\ 6(\pm1)^3+7(\pm1)^2-3(\pm1)+1=0 \\ 71\ne0,5\ne0 \\ \frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2} \\ 6(\pm\frac{1}{2})^3+7(\pm\frac{1}{2})^2-3(\pm\frac{1}{2})+1=0 \\ 2\ne0,\frac{7}{2}\ne0 \\ \\ 6(\pm\frac{1}{3})^3+7(\pm\frac{1}{3})^2-3(\pm\frac{1}{3})+1=0 \\ 1\ne0,\frac{23}{9}\ne0 \\ \frac{1}{6},-\frac{1}{6} \\ 6(\frac{1}{6})^3+7(\frac{1}{6})^2-3(\frac{1}{6})+1=0 \\ \frac{13}{18}\ne0,-\frac{5}{3}\ne0 \end{gathered}[/tex]3) So the possible roots are:
[tex]\pm1,\pm\frac{1}{2},\pm\frac{1}{3},\pm\frac{1}{6}[/tex]But there are no actual rational roots.

So, the region that results is an overlapping region and it is written as:
6 ≤ x < 7
So, the lower limit 6 is closed and the upper limit 7 is open.
Answer: The region is overlaping and it is 6 ≤ x < 7

Knowledge CheckUse the distributive property to remove the parentheses.--7(-5w+x-3)X 5
The distributive property states that:
[tex]k\cdot\left(a+b+c\right?=k\cdot a+k\cdot b+k\cdot c.[/tex]In this problem, we have the expression:
[tex]-7\cdot(-5w+x-3)=(-7)\cdot(-5w+x-3).[/tex]Comparing this expression with the general expression of the distributive property, we identify:
• k = (-7),
,• a = -5w,
,• b = x,
,• c = -3.
Using the general expression for the distributive property with these values, we have:
[tex]\left(-7\right)\cdot(-5w)+\left(-7\right)\cdot x+\left(-7\right)\cdot(-3).[/tex]Simplifying the last expression, we get:

We will substitute the variable x with the variable u using the following relation:
[tex]u=x^2[/tex]Then, we can convert the polynomial as:
[tex]4x^4+2x^2-12=4u^2+2u-12[/tex]We can use the quadratic equation to calculate the roots of u:
[tex]\begin{gathered} u=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt[]{2^2-4\cdot4\cdot(-12)}}{2\cdot4} \\ u=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt[]{4+192}}{8} \\ u=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt[]{196}}{8} \\ u=\frac{-2\pm14}{8} \\ u_1=\frac{-2-14}{8}=-\frac{16}{8}=-2 \\ u_2=\frac{-2+14}{8}=\frac{12}{8}=1.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]We have the root for u: u = -2 and u = 1.5.
As u = x², we have two roots of x for each root of u.
For u = -2, we will have two imaginary roots for x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} u=-2 \\ x^2=-2 \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{-2} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{2}\cdot\sqrt[]{-1} \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{2}i \end{gathered}[/tex]For u = 1.5, we will have two real roots:
[tex]\begin{gathered} u=1.5 \\ x^2=1.5 \\ x=\pm\sqrt[]{1.5} \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, for x, we have two imaginary roots: x = -√2i and x = √2i, and two real roots: x = -√1.5 and x = √1.5.
Answer:
Let u = x²
Equation using u: 4u² + 2u - 12
Solve for u: u = -2 and u = 1.5
Solve for x: x = -√2i, x = √2i, x = -√1.5 and x = √1.5
Imaginary roots: x = -√2i and x = √2i
Real roots: x = -√1.5 and x = √1.5
The circle graph shows how the annual budget for a company is divided by department. If the amount budgeted for support, sales, and media combined is $25,000,000, what is the total annual budget?
Answer: $50,000,000
Explanation:
First, we add up the percentage of support, sales, and media covers. Given that:
Support = 23%
Sales = 22%
Media = 5%
The total percentage would be
[tex]23\%+22\%+5\%=50\%[/tex]This would mean that $25,000,000 covers half of the annual budget. The other half would be of the same amount, therefore, the total annual budget would be:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 50\%+50\%=100\% \\ \$25,000,000+\$25,000,000=\$50,000,000 \end{gathered}[/tex]I need some help. Could someone explain it to me?

The circumcenter of a triangle is the center of a circumference where the three vertex are included. So basically we must find the circumference that passes through points O, V and W. The equation of a circumference of a radius r and a central point (a,b) is:
[tex](x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2[/tex]We have three points which give us three pairs of (x,y) values that we can use to build three equations for a, b and r. Using point O=(6,5) we get:
[tex](6-a)^2+(5-b)^2=r^2[/tex]Using V=(0,13) we get:
[tex](0-a)^2+(13-b)^2=r^2[/tex]And using W=(-3,0) we get:
[tex](-3-a)^2+(0-b)^2=r^2[/tex]So we have a system of three equations and we must find three variables: a, b and r. All equations have r^2 at their right side. This means that we can take the left sides and equalize them. Let's do this with the second and third equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (0-a)^2+(13-b)^2=(-3-a)^2+(0-b)^2 \\ a^2+(13-b)^2=(-3-a)^2+b^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]If we develop the squared terms:
[tex]a^2+b^2-26b+169=a^2+6a+9+b^2[/tex]Then we substract a^2 and b^2 from both sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a^2+b^2-26b+169-a^2-b^2=a^2+6a+9+b^2-a^2-b^2 \\ -26b+169=6a+9 \end{gathered}[/tex]We substract 9 from both sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} -26b+169-9=6a+9-9 \\ -26b+160=6a \end{gathered}[/tex]And we divide by 6:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-26b+160}{6}=\frac{6a}{6} \\ a=-\frac{13}{3}b+\frac{80}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now we can replace a with this expression in the first equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (6-a)^2+(5-b)^2=r^2 \\ (6-(-\frac{13}{3}b+\frac{80}{3}))^2+(5-b)^2=r^2 \\ (\frac{13}{3}b-\frac{62}{3})^2+(5-b)^2=r^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]We develop the squares:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (\frac{13}{3}b-\frac{62}{3})^2+(5-b)^2=r^2 \\ \frac{169}{9}b^2-\frac{1612}{9}b+\frac{3844}{9}+b^2-10b+25=r^2 \\ \frac{178}{9}b^2-\frac{1702}{9}b+\frac{4069}{9}=r^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]So this expression is equal to r^2. This means that is equal

Choose an equation that models the verbal scenario. The cost of a phone call is 7 cents to connect and an additional 6 cents per minute (m).
"The cost of a phone call is 7 cents to connect and an additional 6 cents per minute (m)"
If "C" indicates the total cost of a phone call and "m" corresponds to the number of minutes the phone call lasted.
The phone call costs 7 cents to connect, this means that regardless of the duration of the call, you will always pay this fee. This value corresponds to the y-intercept of the equation.
Then, the phone call costs 6 cents per minute, you can express this as "6m"
The total cost of the call can be calculated by adding the cost per minute and the fixed cost:

What is extraneous solution?
An extraneous solution is a root of a converted equation that is not a root of the original equation because it was left out of the original equation's domain is referred to as a superfluous solution.
We are given the following equation,
(x / x - 1) - (1 / x - 2) = (2x - 5)/(x^2 - 3x + 2)
Solving the given equation we have,
(x^2 - 3x + 1) / (x^2 - 3x + 2) = (2x - 5) / (x^2 - 3x + 2)
x^2 - 3x + 1 = 2x - 5
x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0
x^2 - 3x - 2x + 6 = 0
x(x - 3) - 2(x - 3) = 0
(x - 3)(x - 2) = 0
(x - 3) = 0, (x - 2) = 0
x = 3, x = 2
At x = 2 the denominator of the equation will be 0. So solution of the equation is not valid at x = 2.
Therefore, x = 3 is the only one solution. The solution x = 2 is an extraneous solution.

As of today,Chase has successfully delivered 18 out of the 30 meals to senior citizens.Part AHow many more meals would Chase have to deliver in a row in order to have a 75%successful delivery record? Justify your answer.Part BHow many more meals would Chase have to deliver in a row in order to have a 90%successful delivery record? Justify your answer.PartAfter successfully delivering 18 out of 30 meals would Chase ever be able to reach a100% successful delivery record? Explain why or why not.
Part A.
Chase has successfully delivered 18 out of the 30 meals to senior citizens.
We have to calculate how many more meals (lets call it x) she has to deliver to have a 75% successful delivery record.
In order to do that, (18+x) meals have te be delivered successfully out of (30+x), and the successful meals (18+x) divided by (30+x) has to be 0.75:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{18+x}{30+x}=0.75 \\ 18+x=0.75(30+x) \\ 18+x=22.5+0.75x \\ x-0.75x=22.5-18 \\ 0.25x=4.5 \\ x=\frac{4.5}{0.25} \\ x=18 \end{gathered}[/tex]Chase has to deliver 18 more meals successfully in order to have a 75% success delivery record.
Part B.
We apply the same analysis but we replace 0.75 with 0.9 as the delivery record.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{18+x}{30+x}=0.9 \\ 18+x=0.9(30+x) \\ 18+x=27+0.9x \\ (1-0.9)x=27-18 \\ 0.1x=9 \\ x=\frac{9}{0.1} \\ x=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]Chase has to deliver 90 more meals successfully in order to have a 90% success delivery record.
Part C.
She won't be able to achieve 100% successful delivery record. We can prove it mathematically, but we already know as there are 12 meals that weren't successfully delivered, so we can get close to 100% but it can't never be reached.
Mathematically we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{18+x}{30+x}=1 \\ 18+x=30+x \\ x-x=30-18 \\ 0=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]This solution is not valid, so there is no valid solution for x.
A box contains six red pens, four blue pens, eight green pens, and some black pens. Leslie picks a pen and returns it to the box each time. The outcomes are recorded in the table.a. what is the experimental probability of drawing a green pen?b. if the theoretical probability of drawing a black pen is 1/10, how many black pens are in the box
given the follwing parameters,
number of times a Red Pen is picked is 8
numbr o f times the Blue Pen is picked is 5
Number of times the Green Pen is picked is 14
Number of times the Black Pen is picked is 3
so,
(a) to get the experimental probability of drawing a Green Pen is,
P = favoured results/all obtained
then,
14/(8+5+14+3)
= 14/30 that is a
