1A) The points are all on the line y=110-x, so the correlation coefficient is -1.

1B) The slope of the graph everywhere is -1 (square feet per day). This represents the change in area each day (-1 ft²).

1C) The data represents correlation. There is no reason to believe the change in area is caused by the passage of time. Rather, we expect the change to be caused by some process that removes water from the lake. In fact, we expect surface area to increase with time if water is being added (as by rain, for example).


2A) (h+t)(x) = h(x) +t(x) = (5x -2) +(4x +6) = 9x +4

2B) (h·t)(x) = h(x)·t(x) = (5x -2)·(4x +6) = 20x² +22x -12

2C) h(t(x)) = h(4x +6) = 5(4x +6) -2 = 20x +28


3A) 3x²y² -2xy² -8y² = y²(3x² -2x -8) = y²(x -2)(3x +4)
  we made use of the factoring -24 = -6·4 to form factors (3x-6)/3·(3x+4)

3B) x² +10x +25 = (x +5)² . . . . . matches the form for the square of a binomial

3C) x² -36 = (x -6)(x +6) . . . . . . matches the form for the difference of squares


4A) The discriminant is b²-4ac = (-12)² -4(4)(10) = 144 -160 = -16. The radicand is negative, so the solutions will be complex.

4B) A graph shows the solutions to be x ∈ {3, 3.5}.
  The "steps of the method" consisted of typing the expression into a graphing calculator and highlighting the x-intercepts. I chose this method as it requires the least amount of work.

The perimeter of this figure is 42.5 cm. Find the area of this figure.
11111nata11111 [884]
The picture in the attached figure

let
AB=x

we know that
perimeter of the figure=10*x
perimeter=42.5 cm
so
42.5=10*x
x=42.5/10
x=4.25 cm

area of the figure=area of rectangle +area of square
area of rectangle=4.25*(4.25*3)----> 54.1875 cm²
area of square=4.25²----> 18.0625 cm²

area of the figure=54.1875+18.0625-----> 72.25 cm²

the answer is
72.25 cm²

1. The data given below includes data from 42 ​candies, and 7 of them are red. The company that makes the candy claims that 33​%
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for true proportion of red candies is (5%, 27%).

The true proportion of red candies made by the company is different from 33%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis to determine whether the claim made by the candy company is correct or not is:

<em>H</em>₀: The true proportion of red candies made by the company is 33%, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.33.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The true proportion of red candies made by the company is different from 33%, i.e. <em>p</em> ≠ 0.33.

A (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval can be constructed to check this claim.

The decision rule is:

If the confidence interval consists the null value then the null hypothesis will not be rejected. Otherwise it will be rejected.

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for population proportion is:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

The information provided is:

<em>n</em> = 42

<em>X</em> = number of red candies = 7

Compute the sample proportion of candies that are red as follows:

\hat p=\frac{X}{n}=\frac{7}{42}=0.167

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level is:

z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.05/2}=z_{0.025}=1.96

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the critical value.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for true proportion of red candies as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}\\=0.167\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.167(1-0.167)}{42}}\\=0.16\pm0.1137\\=(0.0463, 0.2737)\\\approx(0.05, 0.27)

The 95% confidence interval for true proportion of red candies is (5%, 27%).

The confidence interval does not contains the null value.

Thus, the null hypothesis will be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Conclusion:

The true proportion of red candies made by the company is different from 33%.
