Answer:

c. One sided t-test

Step-by-step explanation:

One sided t test because we want to compare two means and alternative hypothesis is directional.

Which statement describes the inverse of m(x) = x^2 – 17x?

DochEvi [55]

Given:

The function is

$m(x)=x^2-17x$

To find:

The inverse of the given function.

Solution:

We have,

$m(x)=x^2-17x$

Substitute m(x)=y.

$y=x^2-17x$

Interchange x and y.

$x=y^2-17y$

Add square of half of coefficient of y , i.e., $\left(\dfrac{-17}{2}\right)^2$ on both sides,

$x+\left(\dfrac{-17}{2}\right)^2=y^2-17y+\left(\dfrac{-17}{2}\right)^2$

$x+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2=y^2-17y+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2$

$x+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2=\left(y-\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2$ $[\because (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2]$

Taking square root on both sides.

$\sqrt{x+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2}=y-\dfrac{17}{2}$

Add $\dfrac{17}{2}$ on both sides.

$\sqrt{x+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2}+\dfrac{17}{2}=y$

Substitute $y=m^{-1}(x)$ .

$m^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{x+(\dfrac{189}{4}})+\dfrac{17}{2}$

We know that, negative term inside the root is not real number. So,

$x+\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2\geq 0$

$x\geq -\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2$

Therefore, the restricted domain is $x\geq -\left(\dfrac{17}{2}\right)^2$ and the inverse function is $m^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{x+(\dfrac{189}{4}})+\dfrac{17}{2}$ .

Hence, option D is correct.

Note: In all the options square of $\dfrac{17}{2}$ is missing in restricted domain.

Please help! I don't understand how to solve this problem

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Using the z-distribution, a sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

$\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

The margin of error is:

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation for the population.

Assuming an uniform distribution, the standard deviation is given by:

$S = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 0)^2}{12}} = 1.1547$

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence $\alpha = 0.95$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975$ , so the critical value is z = 1.96.

The sample size is found solving for n when the margin of error is of M = 0.006, hence:

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.006 = 1.96\frac{1.1547}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.006\sqrt{n} = 1.96 \times 1.1547$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96 \times 1.1547}{0.006}\right)^2$

n = 142,282.

A sample of 142,282 should be taken, which is not practical as it is too large of a sample.

HELP NEED URGENT IN NEXT 5 MINS!!!!!! PLEASE HELP

grin007 [14]

The linear function is: g = 3n-2. Plug in values from -2 to 4 into n. Like so, G = 3(-2)-2 = g = -8. So, n(x) = -2 and g(y) = -8. And so on, and so on.

Basically, your n values are the x values.
The number you get out of the equation will be your y value.

Please help me with this

kompoz [17]

Answer:

The answer would be X=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is multiplied by 3 to get the answer 30. Because they are varied directly you have to multiply the 8 by 3 to get your answer!

-Hope this helps-
