Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

(x-2)/(x-5)


Discussion:

Factor the numerator and denominator:

x^2 + x - 6 = (x+3)(x-2)

x^2-2x-15 =  (x+3)(x-5)

So  

( x^2 + x - 6) / x^2-2x-15  =   ( (x+3)(x-2) ) / ( (x+3)(x-5) )

Cancelling the (x+3) term in numerator and denominator gives

(x-2)/(x-5)


Regards,  

MrB

A local company is concerned about the number of days missed by its employees due to ill ness. A Random Sample of 10 employees i
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The incentive program does not cuts down on the number of days missed by employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent t-test (also known as the paired t-test or paired samples t-test) compares the two means associated groups to conclude if there is a statistically significant difference amid these two means.

A paired <em>t</em>-test would be used to determine whether the incentive program cuts down on the number of days missed by employees.

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The incentive program does not cuts down on the number of days missed by employees, i.e. <em>d</em> ≥ 0.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The incentive program cuts down on the number of days missed by employees, i.e. <em>d</em> < 0.

From the information provided the data computed is as follows:

 n=10\\\bar d=-1.1\\SD_{d}=2.99

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 t=\frac{\bar d}{SD_{d}/\sqrt{n}}

   =\frac{-1.1}{2.99/\sqrt{10}}\\\\=-1.16

The test statistic value is -1.16.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

p-value=P(t_{n-1}

*Use a t-table.

The p-value of the test is 0.1379.

The p-value of the test is very large for all the commonly used significance level. The null hypothesis will not be rejected.

Thus, there is not enough evidence to support the claim.

Conclusion:

The incentive program does not cuts down on the number of days missed by employees

The global surface water area is 361, 132,000 square metres. Calculate the volume of water needed to cause a 3mm in sea level.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The volume of water is 396 cubic meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of water, A = 132000 square meter

Height, h = 3 mm = 0.003 m

The volume of water is given by

V = Area x height

V = 132000 x 0.003

V = 396 cubic meter.
