What effect does "a" have on the parent function y=1/x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
7 0
Y=1/x is a reciprocal function & its shape is a special hyperbola with one branch located in the 1st Quadrant and the second in the 3dr Quadrant and both are symmetric about the origin O.
If a> 1 → y=a/x  and the 2 branches are equally stretched upward & downward
about the center O.
If  0 < a < 1→y =a/x, the 2 branches are equally stretched downward and upward about the center O.
If a<0, then the 2 legs are in the 2nd and 4th Quadrant respectively

A university administrator was interested in determining if there was a difference in the distance students travel to get from c
eduard

Answer:

1) Fail to reject the Null hypothesis

2) We do not have sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean distance students traveled to school from their current residence was different for males and females.

Step-by-step explanation:

A university administrator wants to test if there is a difference between the distance men and women travel to class from their current residence. So, the hypothesis would be:

H_{o}: \mu_{F}-\mu_{M}=0\\\\ H_{a}: \mu_{F}-\mu_{M}\neq 0

The results of his tests are:

t-value = -1.05

p-value = 0.305

Degrees of freedom = df = 21

Based on this data we need to draw a conclusion about test. The significance level is not given, but the normally used levels of significance are 0.001, 0.005, 0.01 and 0.05

The rule of the thumb is:

  • If p-value is equal to or less than the significance level, then we reject the null hypothesis
  • If p-value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

No matter which significance level is used from the above mentioned significance levels, p-value will always be larger than it. Therefore, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion:

We do not have sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean distance students traveled to school from their current residence was different for males and females.

-2, 10, -50. Find the next two terms of this sequence. Give exact values (not decimal approximations)
lyudmila [28]

250 and - 1250

This is a geometric sequence with common ratio r = - 5

multiply each term by - 5 to obtain the next term

- 50 × - 5 = 250

250 × - 5 = - 1250

the sequence is - 2, 10, - 50, 250, - 1250
