Over the course of a week, an environmental activist randomly stopped 1,200 people on the street and asked whether they were wil

ling to pay higher prices for gas in order to protect the environment. Out of the 1,200 people, 708 of them said they were willing to pay higher prices for gas. With a 99% confidence level (z*-score = 2.58), the activist wants to determine a confidence interval for the estimated proportion of people willing to pay higher prices for gas in order to protect the environment.

Sample Size = n = 1200
Number of people who are willing to pay higher = x = 708

Proportion of people who are willing to pay higher = p = \frac{708}{1200}= \frac{59}{100}=0.59

Confidence Level = 99%
Z Value =  z = 2.58

The confidence interval about a population proportion can be calculated as:

(p-z \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }, p+z \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} })

Using the values, we get:

(0.59-2.58 \sqrt{ \frac{0.59(0.41)}{1200} } ,0.59+2.58 \sqrt{ \frac{0.59(0.41)}{1200} }) \\  \\ 
(0.553,0.627)

Thus, at 99% confidence level, the estimated proportion of people willing to pay higher prices for gas in order to protect the environment lies between 0.553 and 0.627.

Write an equation of the parabola that opens up whose vertex (−1, 2) is 3 units from the focus. (Vertex form or Parabola Form is
TEA [102]

Answer:

y2  =  4ax (opens right, a > 0)

y2  =  -4ax (opens right, a > 0)

x2  =  4ay (opens up, a > 0)

x2  =  -4ay (opens down, a > 0)

Vertex at (h, k) :  

(y - k)2  =  4a(x - h) (opens right, a > 0)

(y - k)2  =  -4a(x - h) (opens right, a > 0)

(x - h)2  =  4a(y - k) (opens up, a > 0)

(x - h)2  =  -4a(y - k) (opens down, a > 0)

Equation of a Parabola in Vertex form

Vertex at Origin :  

y  =  ax2 (opens up, a > 0)

y  =  -ax2 (opens down, a > 0)

x  =  ay2 (opens right, a > 0)

x  =  -ay2 (opens left, a > 0)

Vertex at (h, k) :  

y  =  a(x - h)2 + k (opens up, a > 0)

y  =  -a(x - h)2 + k (opens down, a > 0)

x  =  a(y - k)2 + h (opens right, a > 0)

y  =  -a(y - k)2 + h (opens left, a > 0)

Answer:

<em>Option C</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider each of these graphs. Let us formulate an inequality for each of them, and match the one with an inequality of x > - 14.5;

Graph 1, x > 13.5\\Graph 2, x \geq 14\\Graph 3, x > 14.5\\Graph 4, x \geq 15

Graph 3 is the only one that matches with the inequality provided to us.

* Note that shaded circles are represented by a greater / less than or equal to, and non - shaded circles are represented by a greater / less than sign.

<em>Solution ⇒ Graph 3</em>

Which best describes the transformation that occurs from the graph of f(x) = x2 to g(x) = (x – 2)2 + 3?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. right 2, up 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

The function f(x) = x^2 is transformed to g(x) =(x- 2)^2+3.

We see that,

The function f(x) is translated 2 units to the right and 3 units upwards to obtain the function g(x).

So, the correct transformation is 'right 2, up 3'.

Hence, option A is correct.
