Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find which of the expressions have the greatest rate of exponential growth.

The easiest way to go about this is have a substitution for the term t;

Let’s say t = 6

Thus;

h(t) = 1.18^1 = 1.18

K(t) = 0.375^6 = 0.002780914307

f(t) = 1.36^6 = 6.327518887936

g(t) = 0.86^6 = 0.404567235136

Another way to find this is to express each as a sum of 1

f(t) = (1+ 0.36)^t

g(t) = (1-0.14)^t

k(t) = (1-0.625)^t

We can see clearly that out of all the terms in the brackets asides 1, 0.36 is the biggest in value

In ΔBCD, \overline{BD}

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

30degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Exterior angle m<CDE = 7x - 19 degrees

interior angles are

m<BCD = 2x - 1

m<DBC = x+10

Since the sum of the interior angles is equal to the exterior, hence;

2x - 1 + x+10 = 7x - 19

3x + 9 = 7x - 19

3x - 7x = -19 - 9

-4x = -28

x = 28/4

x = 7

Get m<CDE

m<CDE = 7x - 19

m<CDE = 7(7) - 19

m<CDE = 49 - 19

m<CDE = 30degrees

The measure of the angle

miv72 [106K]

First, we know this diagram consists of two horizontal lines cut by a transversal line. Therefore, we know that the given angle that measures 113° and the angle we want to find are alternate interior angles. Since all alternate interior angles are equal, we know the unknown angle must also be 113°.

I hope this helps.

Answer:

$(0.582-0.485) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.0942$

$(0.582-0.485) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.582(1-0.582)}{144796} +\frac{0.485(1-0.485)}{211693}}=0.09978$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.0942;0.09978).

We are confident at 90% that the difference between the two proportions is between $0.0942 \leq p_A -p_B \leq 0.09978$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$p_A$ represent the real population proportion female for Biology

$\hat p_A =\frac{84199}{144796}=0.582$ represent the estimated proportion female for biology

$n_A=144796$ is the sample size for A

$p_B$ represent the real population proportion female for calculus AB

$\hat p_B =\frac{102598}{211693}=0.485$ represent the estimated proportion female for Calculus AB

$n_B=211693$ is the sample size required for B

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula

$(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}$

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.
