Twenty students randomly assigned to an experimental group receive an instructional program; 30 in a control group do not. After 6 months, both groups are tested on their knowledge. The experimental group has a mean of 38 on the test (with an estimated population standard deviation of 3); the control group has a mean of 35 (with an estimated population standard deviation of 5).

A researcher records the repair cost for 27 randomly selected refrigerators. A sample mean of $60.52 and standard deviation of $23.29 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is [tex]T_c = 1.7056[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators is ($52.875, $68.165).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 27 - 1 = 26

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.7056, which means that the critical value is [tex]T_c = 1.7056[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7056\frac{23.29}{\sqrt{27}} = 7.645[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 60.52 - 7.645 = $52.875.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 60.52 + 7.645 = $68.165.

The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators is ($52.875, $68.165).

Which graph represents the function h(x)=x+0.5

Answers

Answer:

The correct graph of h(x) will be number 3 (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function h(x) = |x| + 0.5

On putting x=0, in the function h(x), we get,  

h(0) = |0| + 0.5

h(0)=0 + 0.5

h(0)=0.5

Thus, the point (0,0.5) lie on the graph of h(x).

The graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)

How to determine the graph?

The equation is given as:

h(x) = |x| + 0.5

The above equation is an absolute value function

An absolute value function is represented as:

h(x) = a|x + h| + k

Where:

Vertex = (h,k)

By comparing h(x) = a|x + h| + k and h(x) = |x| + 0.5, we have:

h = 0 and k = 0.5

So, the vertex is (0,0.5)

The graph that has a vertex of (0,0.5) is graph (c)

Hence, the graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)

How much bigger is the Sum of first 50 even numbers than the sum of first 50 odd numbers?

Answers

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum Even numbers

n = 50

d = 2

a1 = 2

The last number is

an = a1 + (n-1)d

an = 2 + (50 - 1)*2

an = 2 + 49 * 2

an = 2 + 98

an = 100

Sum of the even numbers

Sum = (a1 + a50)*n/ 2

Sum = (2 + 100)*50/2

sum = 102 * 25

sum = 2550

Sum of the first 50 odd numbers

a1 = 1

n = 50

d = 2

l = ?

Find l

l = a1 + (n - 1)*2

l = 1 + 49*2

l = 99

Sum

Sum = (1 + 99)*50/2

Sum = 2500

The difference and answer is 2550 - 2500  = 50

Cual es el capital que prestado al 10% bimestral durante 6 meses y 10 días produce un interés de 1140

Answers

Respuesta:

3650

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que :

Principal, P = capital prestado

Tasa anual, r = 10% * 6 = 60%

Interés = 1140

Periodo = 6 meses y 10 días = (6 * 30) +10 = 190 días

Conversión a años:

Periodo = 190/365

Usando la relación:

Interés = principal * tasa * tiempo

1140 = P * 60% * (190/365)

1140 = 0.3123287P

P = 1140 / 0,3123287

P = 3650

Naomi invested $3,425 in an account that

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 15 = 45

After 15 years, Naomi would have earned a total of 45% interest rate.

3,425 x 1.45 = 4,966.25

Don't use .45 as the multiplier

3,425 x .45 = 1,541.25 <- incorrect

Answer: 4,966.25

Explanation: start by diving 3425 by .03 to get the amount of interest it is yearly giving you 102.75 and then multiply that by 15 since that’s the amount of years and get 1541.25 then add 3425 and 1541.25 together to get the final product of 4,966.25

h is a trigonometric function of the form h(x)=a sin(bx+c)+d. Below is the graph h(x). The function intersects its midline at (-pi,-8) and has a maximum point at (pi/4, "-1.5)." Find a formula for h(x). Give an exact expression.

Answers

Answer:

6.5sin(.04x+.4pi)-8

The function intersects its midline at (-pi,-8) and has a maximum point at (pi/4, "-1.5). The  final equation is h(x) = 4 sin(2x +  π /2) + 3.

What is a function?

A function is defined as a relation between the set of inputs having exactly one output each.

The function intersects its midline at (3π/4, 3) then the midline is d= 3.

The amplitude is just the positive distance between the maximum/minimum and the midline,

so the amplitude a = 7 - 3 = 4

Also, given that period is 2π/b and the fact that the period is π from our given maximum,

we have the equation 2π/b= π where b = 2

we know that the phase shift, -c/b is - π/4 (or  to the left)

since -π /4. Therefore, c = π /2.

our final equation is

h(x) = 4 sin(2x +  π /2) + 3.

This is repeated application of the "solve for ..." process. In general, that process "undoes" what is "done" to the variable. The order of operations can tell you the order of the things that are done. The undoing is in the reverse order.

You need to be completely comfortable with the properties of equality (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), and you need to understand the inverse functions of the functions we usually use: (powers, roots), (exponentials, logarithms), (trig functions, inverse trig functions). Of course, the inverse of addition is subtraction; the inverse of multiplication is division.

Suppose that there are two internet service providers in Kabwe, Eyeconnect and Topconnect.
Currently, Eyeconnect has 180 000 customers and Topconnect has 120 000 customers.
Assume that, every year, 10% of the customer base of Eyeconnect switches to Topconnect
and 5% of the customer base of Topconnect switches to Eyeconnect. For the purposes of this
question, suppose no customer leaves a company without switching to the other one and no
company attracts customers that are not leaving the other (that is, the only changes in
customer base come from switching between the two companies).
a. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect and Topconnect after one year.
b. Find the number of customers of Eyeconnect after many years.

Answers

Answer:

a. 168000 for Eyeconnect, 132000 for Topconnect

b. 100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Because the change in customers are only due to leaving companies, we can say that, after one year, Eyeconnect loses 10% of its customers to Topconnect and Topconnect loses 5% of its customers to Eyeconnect. This represents all changes in customers.

First, we can calculate how much Eyeconnect loses, which is 10% of 180,000 = 0.1 * 180,000 = 18,000 . They then have 180,000 - 18,000 = 162,000 employees

Next, Topconnect loses 120,000 * 5% = 120,000 * 0.05 = 6,000. They then have 120,000-6,000 = 114,000 employees

We can then add the customer amounts. Note that we are subtracting both sides before adding as both companies gain and lose customers simultaneously.

We can then add how much one company lost to the other company's customers.

Eyeconnect gains 6,000 customers, so they then have 162,000 + 6,000 = 168000 employees. Topconnect gains 18,000 customers so they then have 114,000 + 18,000 = 132,000 employees

b.

After many years, the number of customers Eyeconnect has will be less than the number of customers that Topconnect has. One way to find the end amount of customers that Eyeconnect has is to figure out when the customer bases even out, or when Eyeconnect loses the same amount of customers as Topconnect so the customer base stays the exact same. We know that no customers leave or join the companies except to leave/join the other, so the total amount of customers between the two companies stays the exact same. The amount of customers is 180,000 + 120,000 = 300,000. Therefore, at the end amount,

Eyeconnect customers (E) + Topconnect customers (T) =300,000

Furthermore, if the amount of customers that leave Eyeconnect is the same that leaves Topconnect, we can say

E * 0.1 = T * 0.05

divide both sides by 0.05 to isolate the T

E * 0.1 / 0.05 = T

2 * E = T

plug that into the first equation

E + 2 * E = 300,000

3 * E = 300,000

divide both sides by 3 to isolate E

E = 100,000 after many years
