Refer to the diagram shown below.

The right vertex is at (14, -1), and the center is at (-1, -1).
Therefore the semi-major axis is
a = 14 - (-1) = 15

The right focus is at (8, -1).
Therefore
c = 8 - (-1) = 9.

The distance of the directrix from the center is
d = c²/a = 9²/15 = 81/15 = 27/5.

Therefore the equation for the left directrix is
x = -1 - 27/5 = -32/5

Answer: x = -27/5

Test the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 80% at the 0.2 significance level. The
sattari [20]

Answer:

C. H0 : p = 0.8 H 1 : p ≠ 0.8

The test is:_____.

c. two-tailed

The test statistic is:______p ± z (base alpha by 2) \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }

The p-value is:_____. 0.09887

Based on this we:_____.

B. Reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

We formulate null and alternative hypotheses as  proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 80%.

H0 : p = 0.8 H 1 : p ≠ 0.8

The alternative hypothesis H1 is that the 80% of the  proportion is different and null hypothesis is , it is same.

For a two tailed test for significance level = 0.2 we have critical value  ± 1.28.

We have alpha equal to 0.2  for a two tailed test . We divided alpha with 2 to get the answer for a two tailed test. When divided by two it gives 0.1 and the corresponding value is ± 1.28

The test statistic is

p ± z (base alpha by 2) \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }

Where p = 0.8 , q = 1-p= 1-0.8= 0.2

n= 200

Putting the values

0.8 ± 1.28 \sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{200} }

0.8 ± 0.03620

0.8362, 0.7638

As the calculated value of z lies within the critical region  we reject the null hypothesis.

For Greta's birthday party, her parents ordered 6 pizzas. If they cut the pizzas into sixths, how many pieces will there be? Cho
saw5 [17]

Options aren't avaible

Answer:

(1 ÷ 1/6) * 6

36 pieces of pizza

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of pizzas ordered = 6

Divisions per pizza = 1/6 ;

Hence, 1 full pizza is divided into 1 ÷ 1/6 = 1 * 6/1 = 6 pieces

6 * 1/6(1)

The total pieces of pizzas equals :

6 pieces per pizza * number of pizzas

6 * 6

= 36 pieces of pizza
