The correct axis of symmetry is x = -1.

Explanation:

Our equation is
y=\frac{1}{3}(x+1)^2-3.

This is in vertex form, which is 
y = a(x-h)² + k, where (h, k) is the vertex.

In our equation, h corresponds with -1 and k corresponds with -3, making the vertex (-1, -3).

The axis of symmetry is the x-coordinate of the vertex; this makes the axis of symmetry for this equation x = -1.

Find the arc length of the semicircle. Either enter an exact answer in terms of π or use 3.14 for π and enter your answer as a d
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the length of an arc is s = rФ.

Thus, the arc length of a semicircle is S = rФ/2.

Here the radius is 5 (half the diameter), and so in this case the arc length is

S = (5 units)π/2, or S = (5/2)(3.14) units, or approximately S = 7.85 units

Indicate whether the study is an observational study or a controlled experiment. A group of boys is randomly divided into two gr
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Controlled Experiment

Step-by-step explanation:

The controlled experiment involves the experiment in which all factors are considered as constants whereas one factor is not fixed and that one is independent variable whose effect is to be tested. In short,  in controlled experiment one group of data contains control group and one or more other groups are examined by considering all other factors constant except for one factor. The control group is the group that doesn't receive any treatment whereas treatment is applied to experimental group and then effect of treatment is measured through comparing both groups.  

Here group of boys is divided in to two groups

The group watched violent cartoon= Experimental group

The group watched  cartoons without violence= Control group

The researchers want to know whether the violent actions of boys are linked to violent cartoon  and for this purpose these boys are divided into experimental group and control group and after 1 hour of cartoons watching the researcher will observed boys for next two hours.

Hence the study is Controlled experiment.

According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll, 331 of 502 randomly selected U.S. adults interviewed said they would not be bother
k0ka [10]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.659 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{502}}}=7.124  

p_v =P(z>7.124)=5.24x10^{-13}  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is significantly higher than 0.5.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=502 represent the random sample taken

X=331 represent the adults that said they would not be bothered if the NAtional security agency

\hat p=\frac{331}{502}=0.659 estimated proportion of people who would not be bothered if the NAtional security agency

p_o=0.5 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

Confidence=99% or 0.99

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 true proportion is higher than the majority of 0.5:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.5  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.5  

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:  

z=\frac{0.659 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{502}}}=7.124  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.01. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>7.124)=5.24x10^{-13}  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is significantly higher than 0.5.
