I don't like dividing polynomials so I'm going to set x=1 and try them out.

(1-2-14+3)/4 = -3

Of the choices, only D gives -3 when x=1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's as much test-taking as math. If we were to divide

x^2 - 5x + 1
-------------------------------
x + 3 | x^3 - 2x^2 - 14x + 3
x^3 + 3x^2
-5x^2 - 14x
5x^2 + 15x
x + 3
x + 3

More work, still choice D

A phone manufacturer wants to compete in the touch screen phone market. He understands that the lead product has a battery life

Answer:

The null hypothesis is $H_0: \mu \leq 10$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_1: \mu > 10$

b-1) The value of the test statistic is t = 1.86.

b-2) The p-value is of 0.0348.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

Test if the battery life is more than twice of 5 hours:

Twice of 5 hours = 5*2 = 10 hours.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the battery life is of 10 hours or less, than is:

$H_0: \mu \leq 10$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the battery life is of more than 10 hours, that is:

$H_1: \mu > 10$

b-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic.

The test statistic is:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

10 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 10$

In order to test the claim, a researcher samples 45 units of the new phone and finds that the sample battery life averages 10.5 hours with a sample standard deviation of 1.8 hours.

This means that $n = 45, X = 10.5, s = 1.8$

Then

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{10.5 - 10}{\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{45}}}$

$t = 1.86$

The value of the test statistic is t = 1.86.

b-2. Find the p-value.

Testing if the mean is more than a value, so a right-tailed test.

Sample of 45, so 45 - 1 = 44 degrees of freedom.

Test statistic t = 1.86.

Using a t-distribution calculator, the p-value is of 0.0348.

Graph the solution of 2 ≥ 4 - v

Lerok [7]

For this case we have the following inequality:
2 ≥ 4 - v
The first thing we must do in this case is to clear the value of v.
We have then:
v ≥ 4 - 2
v ≥ 2
Therefore, the solution set is given by:
