$\bf \textit{de}\textit{finition of a derivative as a limit}\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)=5x^2-6x-3
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{[5(x+h)^2-6(x+h)-3]~~-~~(5x^2-6x-3)}{h}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{[5(x^2+2xh+h^2)-6(x+h)-3]~~-~~5x^2+6x+3}{h}$

$\bf \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{\underline{5x^2}+10xh+5h^2\underline{-6x}-6h\underline{-3}~~~\underline{-5x^2+6x+3}}{h}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{10xh+5h^2-6h}{h}\implies \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~\cfrac{\underline{h}(10x+5h-6)}{\underline{h}}
\\\\\\
\lim\limits_{h\to 0}~10x+5(0)-6\implies \lim\limits_{h\to 0}~10x-6$

Jacob knows that the adult population gets, on average, eight hours of sleep each night. A hypothesis test can help him see if c

Vlad [161]

Answer:

The t-statistic that Jacob calculates is $t = -2.71$

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob knows that the adult population gets, on average, eight hours of sleep each night. A hypothesis test can help him see if college students are different from the adult population.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of 8 hours, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 8$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean is different of 8 hours, that is:

$H_1: \mu \neq 8$

The test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

8 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 8$

From a sample of 101 students, Jacob tabulated that his sample of students got an average of 7.3 hours of sleep each night, with a standard deviation of 2.6.

This means that $n = 101, X = 7.3, s = 2.6$

What is the t-statistic that Jacob calculates?

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{7.3 - 8}{\frac{2.6}{\sqrt{101}}}$

$t = -2.71$

The t-statistic that Jacob calculates is $t = -2.71$

A 10 ft fence is 8 in .long on the scale drawing. What is the scale drawing?

lions [1.4K]

To find scale we have to provide common unit, so inches.
10 foot = 120 inch becauyse 1 foot = 12 inch so
10foot*12=120 ich
Now
8 inch in drawing is 120 in real, so the scale is 8:120
