Answer:

X-intercept states that the graph crosses the x-axis.

Substitute y = 0 and solve for x.

As per the statement:

Harry's school is selling t-shirts to raise money for the archery team.

The school will receive 35% of the total sales which can be modeled by the equation:

y = 0.35x

where, x represents the total number of sales and y represents the total cost of sale.

By definition of x-intercept:

0 = 0.35x

⇒x = 0

Therefore, the x-intercept in the equation represents:

The number of sales when no money has been raised.

24. Find the area of the shaded region:
Monica [59]

Answer:

A = 5x³ + 17x² - 35x - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

the shaded area (A) is calculated as

A = outer area - inner area

   = (5x + 3)(x² + 4x - 10) - 3x(2x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis

   = 5x³ + 20x² - 50x + 3x² + 12x - 30 - (6x² - 3x)

  = 5x³ + 23x² - 38x - 30 - 6x² + 3x ← collect like terms

  = 5x³ + 17x² - 35x - 30

It is important that face masks used by firefighters be able to withstand high temperatures because firefighters commonly work i
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The 93% confidence interval for the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574). This means that we are 93% sure that the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 55, \pi = \frac{24}{55} = 0.4364

93% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.07, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.07}{2} = 0.965, so Z = 1.81.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4364 - 1.81\sqrt{\frac{0.4364*0.5636}{55}} = 0.3154

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4364 + 1.81\sqrt{\frac{0.4364*0.5636}{55}} = 0.5574

The 93% confidence interval for the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574). This means that we are 93% sure that the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 325 degrees is (0.3154, 0.5574).
