<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>
Let be the average life of light bulbs.
As per given , we have
Null hypothesis :
Alternative hypothesis :
Since is right-tailed and population standard deviation is also known, so we perform right-tailed z-test.
Formula for Test statistic :
where, n= sample size
= sample mean
= Population mean
=population standard deviation
For , we have
Using z-value table , Critical one-tailed test value for 0.06 significance level :
Decision : Since critical z value (1.5548) < test statistic (1.6180), so we reject the null hypothesis .
[We reject the null hypothesis when critical value is less than the test statistic value .]
Conclusion : We have enough evidence at 0.06 significance level to support the claim that the new filament yields a longer bulb life
Consider that,
x^2+4x+4 = (x+2)(x+2)
x^2+7x+10 = (x+2)(x+5)
Dividing those expressions leads to
(x^2+4x+4)/(x^2+7x+10) = (x+2)/(x+5)
The intermediate step that happened is that we have (x+2)(x+2) all over (x+2)(x+5), then we have a pair of (x+2) terms cancel as the diagram indicates (see below). This is where the removable discontinuity happens. Specifically when x = -2. Plugging x = -2 into (x+2)/(x+5) produces an output, but it doesn't do the same for the original ratio of quadratics. So we must remove x = -2 from the domain.
Answer:
(a) The data set is a function, since for each input value {3,4,6,11} there is a single output value {5,7,11,21}
(B) A function is a mathematical relationship that associates one or more inputs with a single output value. So that the data set is not a function, there should be - for one or more values of the input - more than one output.
for example, if for the input value {3} there were two outputs {5, -5} then, the data set would not be a function.
The frelation is not a function because:
When x = 1, y = +1 and y = -1.
(c) The set of data provided can be represented by the equation of a line of the form y = mx + b
The slope is:
m = 2
b = 5 - 2*3
b = -1
Then, the function is:
y = 2x-1
You can substitute any of the points shown in the equation and check that equality is satisfied, for example:
(11 , 21)
y = 2 (11) -1
y = 22-1
y = 21. The equation is satisfied. The same goes for the rest of the values.
