4 Points

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

$35$

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following function ( $y=3x+5$ ). The given problem asks one to find the output of the function when the input is (10). Keep in mind, a general rule for dealing with functions is that, when present, the variable (x) represents the input. Whereas the variable (y) represents the output. Thus, if one were to substitute (10) in place of (x), and simplify: the result one would get is the output. Apply this idea to the given scenario:

$y=3x+5$

$y=3(10)+5$

$y=30+5$

$y=35$

which of the following expresses the coordinates of the foci of the conic section shown below? (x-2)^2/4+(y+5)^2/9

elena55 [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(x - 2) {}^{2} }{4} + \frac{(y + 5) {}^{2} }{9} = 1$

This is the equation of the ellipse. Since the denominator is greater for the y values, we have a vertical ellipse. Remember a>b, so a

The formula for the foci of the vertical ellipse is

(h,k+c) and (h,k-c).

where c is

Our center (h,k) is (2, -5)

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

Here a^2 is 9, b^2 is 4.

${c}^{2} = 9 - 4$

${c}^{2} = 5$

$c = \sqrt{5}$

So our foci is

$(2, - 5 + \sqrt{5} )$

and

$(2, - 5 - \sqrt{5} )$

A professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their class

KIM [24]

Answer:

We conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes at 0.01 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their classes.

He randomly samples a group of seniors and out of 2521 classes, the group skipped 77.

Let p = percentage of seniors who skip their classes.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p $\leq$ 2% {means that seniors skip less than or equal to 2% of their classes}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p > 2% {means that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of seniors who skipped their classes = $\frac{77}{2521}$

n = sample of classes = 2521

So, test statistics = $\frac{\frac{77}{2521} -0.02}{{\sqrt{\frac{\frac{77}{2521}(1-\frac{77}{2521})}{2521} } } } }$

= 3.08

The value of the test statistics is 3.08.

Now at 0.01 significance level, the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 2.3263 < 3.08, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes.

The area of a trapezium is 800 cm2

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The distance between the parallel sides is 20cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid:

$A=\frac{a+b}{2}\times h$

where a and b are the 2 bases, and h is the height. The value we're trying to find here is the height.

3 of the 4 variables in this equation are already given:

A = 800

a = 48

b = 32

Just plug those in and solve for h:

$\rightarrow 800=\frac{48+32}{2}\times h\\\rightarrow 800=\frac{80}{2}\times h\\\rightarrow 800=40\times h\\\rightarrow 800\div40=h\\\rightarrow h=20$
