Suppose a company makes skateboard wheels with a diameter of 64 mm. When the machine that manufactures the wheels is functioning

properly, it produces wheels whose diameters are normally distributed with a mean of 64 mm and a standard deviation of 3.5 mm. The machine gets out of tolerance over time, and can produce wheels that have either a larger or smaller mean diameter. Therefore, quality control inspectors randomly select wheels and measure their diameters. A recent random sample of 49 wheels had a mean of 65 mm.
Represent the p-value of the sample results.

Answer:

z=\frac{65-64}{\frac{3.5}{\sqrt{49}}}=2    

Now we can find the p value based in the alternative hypothesis and we got:

p_v =2*P(z>2)=0.0455  

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=65 represent the sample mean

\sigma=3.5 represent the population standard deviation

n=49 sample size  

\mu_o =64 represent the value to verify

z would represent the statistic  

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true mean for this case is 64 or no, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 64  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 64  

The statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

The statistic for this case is given by:

z=\frac{65-64}{\frac{3.5}{\sqrt{49}}}=2    

Now we can find the p value based in the alternative hypothesis and we got:

p_v =2*P(z>2)=0.0455

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 64

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ ≠ 64

This is a two tailed test.

Since the population standard deviation is given, z score would be determined from the normal distribution table. The formula is

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 64

x = 65

σ = 3.5

n = 49

z = (65 - 64)/(3.5/√49) = 2

Recall, population mean is 64

The difference between sample sample mean and population mean is 65 - 64 = 1

Since the curve is symmetrical and it is a two tailed test, the x value for the left tail is 64 - 1 = 63

the x value for the right tail is 64 + 1 = 65

These means are higher and lower than the null mean. Thus, they are evidence in favour of the alternative hypothesis. We will look at the area in both tails. Since it is showing in one tail only, we would double the area. The probability value for the area above the z score from the normal distribution table is 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275

We would double this area to include the area in the left tail of z = - 2. Thus

p = 0.02275 × 2 = 0.0455

Statement 2 is blank, but it has the reasoning "Corresponding angles postulate"
Because BD || AE, we know that the corresponding angles are congruent. 
One pair of corresponding angles is angle 1 and angle 4. This is because they are on the same side of the transversal AC and they are both above their parallel line counter-part. Similarly, angle 2 and angle 3 are another corresponding pair.
So you'll have "angle1=angle4, angle3=angle2" in the first blank slot

-----------------------

Reason 3 is blank. The statement is that triangle ACE is similar to triangle BCD. The reason why the are similar is the AA (angle angle) similarity postulate. This says that if you know two pairs of angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. The two pairs of angles were mentioned back on the previous line (line 2)
So you'll put "Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate" in the second blank.

-----------------------

Look at the line just above the last line. Here we have
1 + (BA/CB) = 1 + (DE/CD)
If we subtract 1 from both sides, we end up with,
BA/CB = DE/CD
which is what will go in the last blank space

Side Note: The last statement will always be what you want to prove. So you can just look at the very top of the problem where it says "Prove:" under the "Given" part. Then just copy/paste the statement you want to prove, which in this case is BA/CB = DE/CD

What pattern is represented by the polynomial ?
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

choice C. Perfect square trinomial is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the pattern which is represented by the polynomial 4x^2+12x+9.

To find that pattern, we need to factor 4x^2+12x+9

4x^2+12x+9

=4x^2+6x+6x+9

=2x(2x+3)+3(2x+3)

=(2x+3)(2x+3)

=(2x+3)^2

which is a perfect square.

Hence choice C. Perfect square trinomial is correct.
