The graph in the question is of the function f(x)= $log _{0.2}x$ which is option a.

Given a graph which is downward sloping and we are required to find the function whose the graph is.

Function is like a relationship between two or more variables expressed in equal to form. It may be a linear function,exponential function, logarithmic function or quadratic function.

In the given graph the values of y becomes negative when the curve crosses then x axis. For all x>1 the value of log x is greater than 0. So the value of $log_{2}x,log_{4}x,log_{20}x$ should be greater than 0 for x greater than 1. But in graph it is negative. That's why the graph will be of y= $log_{0.2}x$ .

Hence the given graph is of the function f(x)= $log _{0.2}x$ which is option a.

Suppose that you play the game with three different friends separately with the following results: Friend A chose scissors 100 t

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Friend A

$\hat p_A= \frac{100}{400}=0.25$

$z=\frac{0.25 -0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{400}}}\approx -3.47$

Friend B

$\hat p_B= \frac{20}{120}=0.167$

$z=\frac{0.167 -0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{120}}}\approx -3.80$

Friend C

$\hat p_C= \frac{65}{300}=0.217$

$z=\frac{0.217-0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{300}}}\approx -4.17$

So then the best solution for this case would be:

-3.47 (100 out of 400; 25%), -3.80 (20 out of 120; 16.7%), -4.17 (65 out of 300; 21.7%)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n represent the random sample taken

X represent the number of scissors selected for each friend

$\hat p=\frac{X}{n}$ estimated proportion of scissors selected for each friend

$p_o=\frac{1}{3}=0.333$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion that the friend will pick scissors is less than 1/3 or 0.333, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.333$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.333$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

Friend A

$\hat p_A= \frac{100}{400}=0.25$

$z=\frac{0.25 -0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{400}}}\approx -3.47$

Friend B

$\hat p_B= \frac{20}{120}=0.167$

$z=\frac{0.167 -0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{120}}}\approx -3.80$

Friend C

$\hat p_C= \frac{65}{300}=0.217$

$z=\frac{0.217-0.333}{\sqrt{\frac{0.333(1-0.333)}{300}}}\approx -4.17$

So then the best solution for this case would be:

-3.47 (100 out of 400; 25%), -3.80 (20 out of 120; 16.7%), -4.17 (65 out of 300; 21.7%)

The u.s. department of health and human services collected sample data for 772 males between the ages of 18 and 24. that sample

soldier1979 [14.2K]

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean is given by:

$\bar{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

where:

$\bar{x}$ is the sample mean = 69.7
$\sigma$ is the standard deviation = 2.8
$z_{\alpha/2}$ is the test statistics = 2.58 for for 99% confidentce interval.
n is the sample size = 772.

Therefore, the 99% confidence interval is:

$69.7\pm2.58\left( \frac{2.8}{\sqrt{772}} \right)=69.7\pm2.58(0.1008) \\ \\ =69.7-0.26\leq\mu\leq69.7+0.26 \\ \\ =69.44\leq\mu\leq69.96$

Colton has watched 222 comedy movies for every 333 other movies. He has watched 303030 total movies.

Sedaia [141]

The total ratio is 5

The number of comedy movies watched is 12

The number of other movies watched is 18

<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>

Ratio is a comparison of two or more numbers that indicates their sizes in relation to each other. Therefore,

He has watched 2 comedy movies for every 3 other movies. The total movies he has watched is 30. Therefore,

2:3

Ratio of comedy to total movies is as follows:

2 : 5

number of comedy movies watched = 2 / 5 × 30 = 60 / 5 = 12

number of other movies watched = 3 / 5 × 30 = 90 / 5 = 18

Therefore,

total ratio = 5

number of comedy movies watched = 12

number of other movies watched = 18
