Roberto is a fan of the Los Angeles Angels baseball team. Since he works at night he only

goes to day games. Last year he attended all 16 home day games and saw his team win 11

and lose only 5 games, for a winning percentage of 68.8%. In their other games the team won

69 and lost 77, for a winning percentage of 47.3%.


Even though the p-value for a test

comparing these winning percentages is very small, explain how confounding prevents us

from concluding that Roberto’s attendance at those games is the cause of the Angels success

in those games.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are other factors than Roberto coming that could have affected the outcome of the game. For example, maybe the night games were against better teams to generate better ratings in prime time. Moreover, maybe the Angels do better at home due to home-field advantage. There are many factors such as these that could explain why Roberto witnessed such a high win rate at the games he went to, so it cannot be concluded that Roberto's attendance caused the Angels to win.

1,900 square feet;, f, (3) represents the number of additional square feet the construction crew has paved after 3 hours, not including the initial paved amount.

1,900 square feet; f(3) represents the total number of square feet the construction crew has paved after 3 hours.

Answers

Answer:

1,900 square feet; f(3) represents the total number of square feet the construction crew has paved after 3 hours.

The function of the construction crew is an illustration of a linear function

The value of f(3) is 1900, and f(3) represents the total number of square feet paved after working for 3 hours

The function is given as:

To calculate f(3), we substitute 3 for x

Multiply 300 and 3

Add 900 and 1000

This means that the value of f(3) is 1900.

And it represents the total number of square feet paved after working for 3 hours

1,900 square feet; f(3) represents the total number of square feet the construction crew has paved after 3 hours.


Triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment as
shown, forming triangle ABC. Which congruency
statement is correct?
NLM - CAB
NLM -CBA
NLM - BCA
NLM - BAC

Answers

NLM-CAB would be the right answer

Triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment as shown, forming triangle ABC  then the correct congruency statement is NLM ≅ CAB

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

Triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment and form the  triangle ABC.

Triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment to form triangle ABC. This means that the corresponding sides and angles of the two triangles are congruent.

The reflection over a line segment preserves the orientation of the triangle, so the order of the letters in the names of the triangles should remain the same.

Therefore, triangle NLM is reflected over the line segment as shown, forming triangle ABC  then the correct congruency statement is NLM ≅ CAB

18. A tennis ball is launched straight upward with an initial velocity of 24.5 m/s from the edge of a cliff that is 117.6 meters above the ground. Which quadratic equation could be used to correctly determine when the ball will hit the ground:



4.9t2 + 24.5t + 117.6 = 0

-4.9t2 - 24.5t + 117.6 = 0

-4.9t2 + 24.5t - 117.6 = 0

4.9t2 + 24.5t - 117.6 = 0

-4.9t2 + 24.5t + 117.6 = 0



19. Solve the equation you chose in question 18 to determine when the ball will hit the ground. (HINT: If you don't get one of the answers listed for this question, then maybe you chose the wrong equation in #18. Use this opportunity to double check your work!)

t = 8 seconds

t = 4 seconds

t = 3 seconds

t = -3 seconds

The ball will never reach the ground.



20. Using the same equation, determine when the ball is at a height of 49 meters.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

18.

the last one.

-4.9t² + 24.5t + 117.6 = 0

the ball starts at 117.6 meters height. then, during the first seconds the thrust upwards is adding height, until finally, with more and more seconds passing, gravity will win with a vengeance and pulls the ball down faster and faster than any other force in any other direction.

19.

the general solution for a quadratic equation

y = ax² + bx + c

is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

x = t

a = -4.9

b = 24.5

c = 117.6

t = (-24.5 ± sqrt(600.25 - -4×4.9×117.6))/-9.8 =

= (-24.5 ± sqrt(600.25 + 2304.96))/-9.8 =

= (-24.5 ± sqrt(2905.21))/-9.8 = (-24.5 ± 53.9)/-9.8

t1 = (-24.5 + 53.9)/-9.8 = -3

t2 = (-24.5 - 53.9)/-9.8 = 8

a negative time does not make any sense, so the real solution is : the ball reached the ground after 8 seconds.

20.

now the equation is

-4.9t² + 24.5t + 117.6 = 49

but this is quickly transformed again into a "= 0" equation :

-4.9t² + 24.5t + 68.6 = 0

t = (-24.5 ± sqrt(600.25 - -4×4.9×68.6))/-9.8 =

= (-24.5 ± sqrt(600.25 + 1344.56))/-9.8 =

= (-24.5 ± sqrt(1944.81))/-9.8 = (-24.5 ± 44.1)/-9.8

t1 = (-24.5 + 44.1)/-9.8 = -2

t2 = (-24.5 - 44.1)/-9.8 = 7

again, negative time does not make sense.

the ball will be at 49 m height after 7 seconds.

Option A (Yes because 3 x 2 = 6 and 14 x 2 = 28.) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if we simplify 3/6 and 14/28, both of them will get 1/2. This means that only A and C are possible.

Which statement is true about this equation? 3(-y 7) = 3(y 5) 6.

Answers

The statement that is true about the equation 3(-y + 7) = 3(y + 5) + 6 is;

Statement A; The equation has one solution, y = 0

The given equation is;

3(-y + 7) = 3(y + 5) + 6

Expanding the brackets gives us;

-3y + 21 = 3y + 15 + 6

-3y + 21 = 3y + 21

Using subtraction property of equality, subtract 21 from both sides to give;

-3y = 3y

Using addition property of equality, add 3y to both sides to give;

-3y + 3y = 3y + 3y

6y = 0

Using division property of equality, divide both sides by 6 to get;

2x+ −1 /2 =x+7

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

2x+ −1 /2 −x=x+7−x

x+ −1 /2 =7

Step 3: Add 1/2 to both sides.

x+ −1 /2 + 1 /2 =7+ 1 /2

x= 15 /2

3x+2− 2 /3 x= 2 /3 x+ 13 /3 − 2 /3 x

7 /3 x+2= 13 /3

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

7 /3 x+2−2= 13 /3 −2

7 /3 x= 7 /3

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 3/7.
