It’s phrased very weird, but I believe I have it figured out.

On the map, there distance of the race is 41.9 inches.

So, (41.9)(400) = 16760 feet

A drug company is considering marketing a new local anesthetic. The effective time of the anesthetic the drug company is current
lapo4ka [179]

Using the z-distribution, we have that:

a)

The hypothesis test is:

  • H_0: \mu = 7.4
  • H_1: \mu < 7.4

The p-value is of 0.0668.

The critical value is z^{\ast} = -1.28

b) Since the <u>test statistic is less than the critical value</u> for the left-tailed test, there is enough evidence to conclude that the null hypothesis will be rejected.

Item a:

At the null hypothesis, it is <u>tested if the mean is of 7.4 minutes</u>, that is:

H_0: \mu = 7.4

At the alternative hypothesis, it is <u>tested if the mean is lower than 7.4 minutes</u>, that is:

H_1: \mu < 7.4

We have the <u>standard deviation for the population</u>, hence, the z-distribution is used.

The test statistic is given by:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

The parameters are:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation of the sample.
  • n is the sample size.

For this problem, the values of the <em>parameters </em>are: \overline{x} = 7.1, \mu = 7.4, \sigma = 1.2, n = 36.

Hence, the value of the <em>test statistic</em> is:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{7.1 - 7.4}{\frac{1.2}{\sqrt{36}}}

z = -1.5

Using a z-distribution calculator, the p-value is of 0.0668.

Also using a calculator, considering a <u>left-tailed test</u>, as we are testing if the mean is less than a value, the critical value with a <u>significance level of 0.1</u> is of z^{\ast} = -1.28.

Item b:

Since the <u>test statistic is less than the critical value</u> for the left-tailed test, there is enough evidence to conclude that the null hypothesis will be rejected.

The equation y = \large 1\frac{1}{2}x represents the number of cups of dried fruit, y, needed to make x pounds of granola. Deter
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

(1\frac{1}{2},1) - False

(4,6) - True

(18,12) -- False

(0,0) -- True

(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4}) -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are

(1\frac{1}{2},1) , (4,6), (18,12), (0,0) and (2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4}) ---- missing from the question

Given

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x

Required

Determine if each of the points would be on y = 1\frac{1}{2}x

To do this, we simply substitute the value of x and of each point in y = 1\frac{1}{2}x.

(a) (1\frac{1}{2},1)

In this case;

x = 1\frac{1}{2} and y = 1

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x becomes

y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 1\frac{1}{2}

y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{3}{2}

y = \frac{9}{4}

y = 2\frac{1}{4}

<em>The point </em>(1\frac{1}{2},1)<em>  won't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for </em>x = 1\frac{1}{2}<em> is </em>y = 2\frac{1}{4}<em></em>

(b) (4,6)

In this case;

x = 4

y = 6

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x becomes

y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 4

y = \frac{3}{2} * 4

y = \frac{3* 4}{2}

y = \frac{12}{2}

y = 6

<em>The point </em>(4,6)<em>  would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for </em>x = 4 is y = 6

(c) (18,12)

In this case:

x = 18;y = 12

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x becomes

y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 18

y = \frac{3}{2} * 18

y = \frac{3* 18}{2}

y = \frac{54}{2}

y = 27

<em>The point </em>(18,12)<em>  wouldn't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for </em>x = 18<em> is </em>y = 12<em></em>

(d) (0,0)

In this case;

x =0; y = 0

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x becomes

y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 0

y = 0

<em>The point </em>(0,0)<em>  would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for </em>x = 0 is y = 0

(e) (2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})

In this case:

x = 2\frac{1}{2}; y = 3\frac{3}{4}

y = 1\frac{1}{2}x becomes

y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 2\frac{1}{2}

y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{5}{2}

y = \frac{15}{4}

y = 3\frac{3}{4}

<em>The point </em>(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4}) <em>  would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for </em>x = 2\frac{1}{2} is y = 3\frac{3}{4}

Find the rule and the graph of the function whose graph can be obtained by performing the translation 3 units left and 2 units d
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

 1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above:

f(x)=x³ (This is the simplest form. We need to translate it 3 units left and 2 units down)

2. If you take the parent function and make y=f(x+3), then you have:

y=f(x+3)=(x+3)^{3} (The function is shifted 3 units left on the x-axis).

3. Then you if you make y=f(x+3)-2, as following, you obtain:

y=f(x+3)-2=(x+3)^{3}-2  (The function is shifted 2 units down on the y-axis).

4. Therefore, that is how you obtain the final function.

The answer is the graph shown in the option a.
