Plug in x = 1 to get...
f(x) = 5(2)^x
f(1) = 5(2)^1
f(1) = 10
So the point (1,10) is on this curve

Do the same for x = 5
f(x) = 5(2)^x
f(5) = 5(2)^5
f(5) = 160
The point (5,160) is also on the curve

Use the slope formula now
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (160-10)/(5-1)
m = 150/4
m = 37.5

The average rate of change is 37.5

60 is whatpercent of 40
DiKsa [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

24

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Y is 60% of 40

Equation: Y = P% * X

<u>Solving our equation for Y</u>

Y = P% * X

Y = 60% * 40

<u>Converting percent to decimal:</u>

p = 60%/100 = 0.6

Y = 0.6 * 40

Y = 24

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

a) Hо : p = 0.71

Ha : p ≠ 0.71

<em>p </em>= x / n

<em>p </em>= 91/110

<em>p </em>= 0.83.

1 - Pо = 1 - 0.71 = 0.29.

b) Test statistic = z

= <em>p </em>- Pо / [√Pо * (1 - Pо ) / n]

= 0.83 - 0.71 / [√(0.71 * 0.29) / 110]

= 0.12 / 0.043265

= 2.77360453

Test statistic = 2.77

c) P-value

P(z > 2.77) = 2 * [1 - P(z < 2.77)] = 2 * 0.0028

P-value = 0.0056

∝ = 0.01

P-value < ∝

Reject the null hypothesis.  There is sufficient evidence to support the researchers claim at the 1% significance level.
