Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:  

<span>f(x) = –(x + 8)^2 – 1 
Find the first derivative:  f '(x) = -2(x+8)(1)
Set this = to 0:  -2(x+8) = 0
solve for x:  x = -8
Divide the number line into subintervals based upon x=-8:

(-inf, -8) and (-8, inf)

Choose a test value for x from each interval, e. g., -10 from the first interval and 20 from the second.

Subst. this test value into the derivative, shown above.

If the result is + the function is incr on that interval; if - the fn. is decr.

Much as you would like it to be D, it isn't. D has its center at (3,4). You must change the sign on both numbers inside the brackets.

You need something that looks like (x + 3)^2 + (y + 4)^2. So it could be A or B. How do you know which? The graph should give you an answer, then we'll talk about it. The red circle is A the blue circle is B. Which one is correct?

The answer to that is that the center is 5 units away from the origin. The radius of this circle is the sqrt(25) = 5 units away from the center. The blue one has a radius of sqrt(5) which is something over 2. It is not enough. So what's the answer?

A statistics teacher taught a large introductory statistics class, with 500 students having enrolled over many years. The mean s
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The teacher select a sample of n =15 students.  And he wanted to know if teaching a smaller class was more effective and students performed better, that means if \mu >78 and he obtaind a sample mean of \bar X>83.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu =78

Alternative hypothesis: \mu >78

And the best option for this case is:

a. H0:\mu=78 vs. H1:\mu>78 .

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following previous info given:

\mu = 78 represent the true mean

\sigma =10 represent the true deviation

The teacher select a sample of n =15 students.  And he wanted to know if teaching a smaller class was more effective and students performed better, that means if \mu >78 and he obtaind a sample mean of \bar X>83.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu =78

Alternative hypothesis: \mu >78

And the best option for this case is:

a. H0:\mu=78 vs. H1:\mu>78 .
