Let the number be Y .
Y is seven
less than 5 times another (let that other be X)
Y=7-5X
sum of both Y and X minus 4 gives one
Y+X-4=1
now solve both equations .

David, a platform diver, dives into the pool during practice. The height of David above the water at any given time, s, can be m
ella [17]

Check the pictures below.

if we knew the roots/solutions of the equation, we can set h(s) = 0 and solve for "s" to find out how many seconds is it when the height is 0.

if you notice in the first picture, when f(x) = 0, is when the parabola hits a root/solution or the ground, for David he'll be hitting the water surface, and the equation that has both of those roots/solutions conspicuous is

h(s) = -4.9(s - 2)(s + 1).

The director of a state agency believes that the average starting salary for clerical employees in the state is less than ​$35 c
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to conclude that  average starting salary for clerical employees in the state is less than ​$35,000 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 35,000 dollars per year

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 34,700 dollars per year

Sample size, n = 100

Alpha, α = 0.10

Population standard deviation, σ = 3,500 dollars per year

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 35,000\text{ dollars per year}\\H_A: \mu < 35,000\text{ dollars per year}

We use one-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{34700 - 35000}{\frac{3500}{\sqrt{100}} } = -0.8571

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.10 level of significance } = -1.28

Since,  

z_{stat} > z_{critical}

We fail to reject the null hypothesis and accept the null hypothesis.

Thus, there is not enough evidence to conclude that  average starting salary for clerical employees in the state is less than ​$35,000 per year.
