Given h(t)=-2(t+5)^2+4, find h(-8) -334 -14 -45 -445

1 answer:

6 0

Substitute -8 for t in the expression, and now you have: h(-8) = -2[(-8) + 5]^2 + 4. Solve inside the parentheses; add -8 and 5.

h(-8) = -2[-3]^2 + 4, solve exponents next by squaring -3.

h(-8) = -2[9] + 4, multiply -2 and 9.

h(-8) = [-18] + 4, add -18 and 4.

h(-8) = -14.

How can I solve this?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

y is 70° and x is 40 °

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangle has two equal sides as shown on the diagram...so the next angle to 110° which is 70° is equal to y....then by calculation y + x should give us 110° so if y is 70 then x is 40.

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval would be given by (509.592;550.308)

b) n=523 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=530$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean

s=70 represent the sample standard deviation

n=48 represent the sample size (variable of interest)

Confidence =95% or 0.995

Part a

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

The degrees of freedom are df=n-1=48-1=47

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,47)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.01$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$530-2.01\frac{70}{\sqrt{48}}=509.692$

$530+2.01\frac{70}{\sqrt{48}}=550.308$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (509.592;550.308)

Part b

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (a)

Assuming that $\hat \sigma =s$

And on this case we have that ME =6msec, and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2$ (b)

The critical value for 95% of confidence interval is provided, $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$ , replacing into formula (b) we got:

$n=(\frac{1.96(70)}{6})^2 =522.88 \approx 523$

So the answer for this case would be n=523 rounded up to the nearest integer
